If you are planning a project with a participatory component and are considering using civic tech, we offer expert advising to help you select, set up and implement the tool at the right time.

The market for civic tech tools is growing dramatically year after year. It is not easy to navigate the vast array of options – what the tools allow, what functionalities they have, and how much they cost. For the public sector, this can mean high costs, which is why we have been committed to helping the public sector in this area since the beginning of Participation Factory. 

We monitor hundreds of digital tools for e-participation in the European market and dozens of them in the Czech Republic alone. These tools can handle a variety of activities such as data collection, voting, proposal creation, online deliberation, feedback collection, mapping, two-way communication, and much more. 

We do not resell tools but listen to the needs and requirements of our clients, present various options, provide the necessary information, and recommend the most suitable option based on each project. We can advise you on which phases of the project and which activities the tool can best be used for. We make sure that the tool is user-friendly and provides you with valuable data.

We also assist in the tendering process or help in assessing offers from product providers. With us, you will select the right tool without unnecessary stress.
