sharing ideas that solve impactful issues

Except ideas don't solve impactful issues, groups of people applying time and resources to a problem solves impactful issues.

I think it would be more accurate to say that the service is for "sharing ideas for how to have an impact on complex issues."

I'm still not really sure what it is supposed to do.

Sorry, that is a bit unclear. Essentially, we want to make it easier for people to find issues that many people can identify with, and in the process, show people what some potential solutions are.

By filtering out some of the noise, the ideas that could solve widespread issues can get more resources put behind them and hopefully a greater chance of succeeding.

This might make more sense in the enterprise software realm, but we saw some interest in the startup community as well so we wanted to test it out.
