Orchidea is an innovation platform for organizations to collect, develop, evaluate and manage ideas with AI-powered tools. Teams can run guided workshops, time-limited topic campaigns, or ongoing channels for a team, site, product or service. A discussion feed with comments, reactions, @mentions and hashtags supports idea development, while analytics and reports offer insight into the innovation process. Native Android and iOS apps let users create and comment on proposals, take pictures and save drafts; the platform is also available on the web. Single sign-on supports ADFS, Entra ID, Google, Okta and custom identity providers. SCIM can synchronize user profiles and status with Entra ID, Okta or a custom provider. Orchidea says customer content is hosted in the EU, with a US hosting option for Enterprise, and that customer data is not used to train AI models. The Free plan allows up to 15 members. Challenge costs $695 per month, includes five facilitators and has a three-month minimum subscription. Professional costs $1,065 per month with an annual billing cycle. Enterprise pricing is on request.
