Wiki surveys

All Our Ideas

Show people two ideas. They pick one. Every vote sharpens a crowd-ranked list of what matters most — and anyone can add ideas of their own.

Why pairwise?

The simplest honest question

Rating scales get gamed and long surveys get abandoned. A choice between two options takes seconds, works in any language, and is remarkably hard to manipulate — while the mathematics of pairwise comparison turns thousands of quick votes into a robust ranking.

Vote in seconds

Participants compare two ideas at a time — as many or as few pairs as they like. No forms, no friction, anonymous-friendly.

The crowd adds ideas

It’s a survey and a brainstorm at once: anyone can submit a new idea, which immediately starts competing in the ranking.

Rankings you can defend

Every idea gets a score from all votes cast, with live results dashboards — a defensible, transparent picture of group priorities.

From Princeton to Reykjavík

Now part of Your Priorities

All Our Ideas was created at Princeton University as a research project in “wiki surveys”, and its pairwise method has powered public consultations around the world. Citizens Foundation has taken over its open-source maintenance — and rebuilt it as a group type right inside Your Priorities, so wiki surveys run alongside idea generation, debates and participatory budgeting, with the same AI translation, moderation and analytics underneath.

Ask your crowd what matters most

Wiki surveys are built into Your Priorities — free and open source.
