A software tool that seeks to enable groups to make decisions more effectively. 

"Until now, there has been no tool available to give all members of large groups the opportunity to participate in proposing ideas and choosing which proposals to go with.

There certainly has never been a tool made to help all the members to clearly see and participate in the thinking process that led to the decisions that were made.

Forby is designed to do just that.

All members can propose ideas.

They also get to explain their reasoning why or why not to move forward with a proposal.

When they post their reasons, the entire community can see and vote on these statements.

This allows the entire community to see the level of agreement with the reasons why or why not, and post alternate proposals based on the concerns of the members.
