I like the idea and the pitch. I think the copy itself reads a bit strangely and the design is a bit rough.

Is the vetting an essential part of the process when a company uses this? Are you sure? It seems like you're almost afraid just call it a suggestion box app because it might be too simple. Or even if the vetting is essential is it really the way to pitch and name this app?

Yes, still learning a lot about copy and design... But hopefully we will be able to improve this with time.

Good question about the Vetting - I see what you're saying about it, and we've looked at some alternative approaches, but it seems to do a good job of getting users engaged in the rating / voting process at this point.

Do you think just a suggestion box app would be too simple?

Thanks for the feedback.

I can see "just a suggestion box" from the submitter perspective being really nice if it is really simple. I'm talking "e-mail your suggestions to [e-mail]" simple.

Perhaps some sort of analysis/aggregation on the backend for the person(s) who review the submitted suggestions. An interesting idea is using Bayesian spam filtering techniques to filter out "whiny" suggestions...

Aye the backend could certainly use some additional processing. We're just working out the best way to approach this now. For the time being we just offer some simple sorting, tagging and categorization options, but we're working on locking down the next iteration. Thanks

I think a suggestion box app would be perfect. Just make it so simple and well designed that people want to use it in their company.

My personal preference in copy would not to use ellipses, but I have to admit is a long way from my area of expertise. The typography is probably the area of the design that most needs improvement.
