Inspiradrome
Where ideas take flight
Unlocking the world’s collective creativity by making innovation open, collaborative, and accessible to everyone.
What is Inspiradrome?
Inspiradrome is a collaborative Open Innovation platform that connects dreamers, builders and supporters. Here, ideas are shared, developed, and launched into the world. Whether you’re a casual lifehacker, seasoned professional, or an aspiring entrepreneur, Inspiradrome gives your ideas a runway.
What makes it different?
- Idea-centric: We focus on giving every innovative idea, from a technological breakthrough to just a little lifehack, an environment where it can be nurtured by the community and has the best possible chance of being implemented.
- Open by default: Ideas are shaped by the community and belong to the world. Choose to retain or release the commanding role as your project develops.
- Find your niche: Dreamer, analyst, builder, supporter – innovation needs all kinds of minds.
- Multi-way Open Innovation: The platform is open for inventors to express their ideas, collaborators to form project teams, and companies to back promising ventures.
- From sparks to launches: Whether it’s a quick tip, a fresh concept, or a bold new venture, every contribution matters.
- Compensation beyond ownership: Earn reputation, consulting contracts, job opportunities – or just the joy of seeing your ideas come alive.
- Truly inclusive: Anyone can express an innovative idea – you don’t need an accelerator-ready commercially promising startup pitch to have your voice heard.
- Next-Gen Open Innovation: Inspiradrome emphasises global connectivity and doesn’t like staying in company silos.
Why now?
In recent years, openness has emerged as a powerful force driving technological and cultural progress. We see it everywhere – in Open Source software, Open Hardware, Open Access publishing, Open Education, the Right to Repair movement, and more. These movements are growing because they unlock the collective potential of communities and lower the barriers to innovation.
Open Innovation is the next frontier. For decades, useful inventions were hidden behind closed doors – gated by patents, exclusive deals, or kept in stealth until monetisation was secured. But this model is starting to show its age. Today, we live in a world where talent is everywhere, creativity is abundant, and digital tools make it easier than ever to contribute – or to be overlooked.
Ironically, the challenge for innovators is no longer protecting ideas – it’s getting them noticed, understood, and acted upon. Even brilliant ideas, generously shared with no strings attached, can vanish into the noise.
Inspiradrome exists to change that. It offers a space for ideas to breathe – to be seen, appreciated, refined, and connected to those with the skills or resources to make them real. It’s a place for creators to be recognised, not just as entrepreneurs, but as visionaries, collaborators, or catalysts of innovation.
Now is the time to rethink how ideas move through the world.
How it works
- A person submits an innovative idea.
- AI evaluates the idea to determine its originality, viability and practical applications, provides links to useful resources and similar (or complementary) projects, and match-makes potential collaborators.
- Community interacts with ideas by commenting, helping with analysis and calculations, or building prototypes.
- The ultimate goal is for ideas to become reality. This can be achieved in several ways: inventor gains enough encouragement and technical advice from the community to go through with the project; a startup team is formed from among the platform’s users; an OI-oriented company picks up an idea and compensates the inventor according to Inspiradrome’s guidelines*.

Why it is a big deal
You can pause to have a think…
Hint
It takes lots of resources to run AI. Our human brains run on far less energy, but are still good for something. We still beat AI on creativity. And there are billions of human brains out there, each navigating a life, teeming with valuable insights and fresh ideas. Among these countless ideas are sparks that, if kindled, could transform the world.
There are ideas out there that can help us do anything! There are ideas that can help us solve major environmental problems. Ideas to help us live longer, healthier lives. Ideas to make things more convenient. An idea on how to reach the stars? It’s there, somewhere, I’m sure of it.
Not all of us can make the next big breakthrough, but we should be doing all we can to help it emerge.
Instead, for some reason, we decided that we need to wait for the next world-changing idea to somehow make it – without support, without signposting, in a hostile environment where no one wants to listen. And if it doesn’t? Let’s just wait another generation or two, until someone else thinks of it, and this time manages to make it real.
How can we be so irresponsible about ideas that could change (save?) the world?
It could take years, decades, or even centuries before an idea gets a runway to take off (it may die several times and re-emerge in another brain).
We not only haven’t built an environment for ideas to flow freely and end up where they can make a difference, but instead, we have built a culture where ideas are instinctively protected, opportunities to connect are restricted, and unsolicited altruism is treated with suspicion.
We celebrate innovation in the nominal sense, without actually helping innovative ideas become reality. We laud entrepreneurs as heroes who have overcome hardships to bring us something useful, and ignore those who don’t have what it takes, lack the right opportunities, or simply choose not to go through the startup journey from start to stardom. The dreamers with wild ideas; the quiet professionals who have valuable insights but are too caught up in everyday life to explore them; the makers who would love to use their skills to prototype something awesome; company R&D departments whose creativity needs a boost; venture investors hunting for the next big thing; and more. All these people could play a role in creating the future. If they could all connect and share ideas.
The notion of human beings cooperating to achieve great things is old. Really old. This is what made us human in the first place. Why bring up something so obvious?
Because now we have opportunities we didn’t have before: first the Internet, and now AI. They can help elevate human cooperation and collective creativity to a new level.
One of the ways to do that is Inspiradrome, a larval form of the new noösphere.
And the new noösphere will be home to a new AI, too: a model trained on raw human creativity and the patterns of collaboration and idea development, an AI with unprecedented innovative abilities. Human-AI co-innovation at scale could create a sharp upward spiral in the scientific and technological progress. It could… I don’t know… do anything!
Please feel free to dream! And don’t let your dreams go to waste – make them known!
