The most advanced toolset to ideate, validate and grow platform business models
Platform Innovation Kit (PIK)
The business design toolset for the platform generation
One toolset for all lifestages of a platform venture
Very often teams are using multiple business design frameworks and tools like Design Thinking, Lean Canvas, Growth Hacking and many more to ideate, validate and scale.
But using the tools usually two problems appear:
First: You use more multiple tools and there is a knowledge break between them, lacking the capabilities to transfer and support a venture project into the scale-up phase. This leads to inconsistencies and very often misunderstandings.
Second: They are optimized for products and services, but not for multi-sided businesses like platforms.
Our Platform Innovation Kit is designed to support all life stages of a platform venture – from exploration to scale – making it the most comprehensive toolset available.
It consists of canvases, playbooks, guides and a lot of insights from over 150 platform ventures.
