Problem
Organizations often struggle to accurately predict future events and trends, leading to suboptimal decision-making and increased risk. Traditional forecasting methods can be slow, expensive, and fail to incorporate diverse perspectives, resulting in missed opportunities and strategic missteps.
Solution
Cultivate Labs offers a platform that leverages crowdsourced forecasting and issue decomposition to improve organizational foresight and strategic planning. The platform enables companies, governments, and research institutions to tap into the collective intelligence of their employees, partners, or the public to generate insights, quantify uncertainties, and challenge conventional thinking. By simplifying the process of gathering and analyzing human perspectives about the future, Cultivate Labs helps organizations make better-informed decisions, reduce risk, and gain a competitive advantage. The platform is available as a self-hosted or cloud-based solution and can be complemented by issue decomposition workshops to methodically understand how the future will impact critical decisions and policies.

Cultivate Labs primarily serves national security and diplomatic government agencies, think tanks, biopharmaceutical companies, energy companies, and public and private financial institutions.
