Quiri

Two-sided conversations usually turn into 2 people competing for airspace to be heard, which stops all progression of the conversation, halting problem-solving, growth or expansion of ideas. Nigel Maynard is the founder of Quiri, a start-up dedicated to improving online interpersonal relationships through improving progressive and productive discourse during complex conversations. Currently, online platforms like LinkedIn, or Facebook (or even productivity thread applications like Slack or Discord) fail to address the challenges of organizing or facilitating online arguments over controversial topics. The Quiri App - Reinforces question-asking by saving each question and adding a delightful micro-interaction as a reward for being curious - Enables the highlighting of important questions and insights and saving them for later reference - Encourages collaborative brainstorming and problem-solving - Normalizes taking pauses in the conversation to encourage creating well thought-out responses
