The participation problem
Employee voice programs often collect sentiment without producing a decision record. Democratic workplaces need something sharper when choosing policies, priorities, workplace investments, or governance experiments.
Nicolas gives every participant a finite voice budget, then records support, opposition, costs, and outcome probabilities.
Why intensity matters
A policy can be mildly popular across the organization while deeply harmful or valuable to a smaller group. Majority-style tools can miss that asymmetry.
Quadratic voting gives workers a way to spend more voice credits where they care more, while the squared cost keeps that intensity accountable.
Where to use it
Good fits include prioritizing workplace improvements, choosing agenda items, consulting members before formal votes, and evaluating proposals that affect teams differently.
Poor fits include private HR cases, compliance workflows, statutory elections, or decisions where leadership has already chosen the outcome.
