# Swipeable Idea-Sharing Apps The Posyt App Matches Users with Like-Minded Potential Collaborators By Charlotte Joyce Kidd | Published 2015-10-08 | Business Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ideasharing References: [producthunt](https://www.producthunt.com/tech/posyt-2?utm_campaign=producthunt-atom-posts-feed&utm_medium=rss-feed&utm_source=producthunt-atom-posts-feed) & [posyt](https://www.posyt.com/?ref=producthunt) Posyt is a social idea-sharing app that helps users find collaborators for their grandest dreams, wildest schemes and most passion-driven projects. Users start the idea-sharing process by posting ideas in short form, just like they would normally jot them down in a notebook or Tweet them. Then, the idea-sharing app's algorithm offers the user related ideas posted by other people. The user can [swipe left or right](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bookswipr) to accept or reject idea posts. Once two users have mutually accepted each other's posts, Posyt lets them enter into a private chat. Other matched members can join in, and before long, a project task force has been created. The idea-sharing app is still in its early days, but the video for Posyt shows how it could be used to write and record a song, drawing in [musical collaborators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/openmic) from around the world wide web. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.4/10 - Popularity: 15% | Activity: 78% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Business](https://www.trendhunter.com/business) > [New Ventures](https://www.trendhunter.com/newventures) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Social Idea Sharing Apps:** There is an opportunity for a more niche social idea-sharing app that focuses on particular industries, interests, or hobbies. - **AI-algorithms in Idea Sharing Apps:** Developing an AI-algorithm that can suggest ideas or identify related ones based on keyword search or a user's previous posts would significantly increase user experience in idea-sharing apps. - **Global Collaboration Apps:** There is an opportunity to create apps that cater to intercontinental collaborations to expand networking opportunities globally. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Social Media:** The use of AI-algorithms in social media platforms could aid in content creation and improving user experience on the platform. - **Music Industry:** Innovative idea-sharing apps can provide music creators with a platform to collaborate with like-minded people from all over the world and could create a disruptive innovation for the industry. - **Creative Industries:** Idea-sharing apps have the potential to be transformative for the creative industries, providing a platform for collaboration that never existed before. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [App Idea Networks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/croidea.md) - [Idea Management Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sliiidea.md) - [Online Idea-Sharing Platforms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oasis-of-ideas.md) - [Interactive Idea Organizers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/thinkpost.md) - [Swipable Curated Ad Inspiration](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/swipify.md) - [Shared Planning Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/postpad.md) - [Collaborative Social Networks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/peatch.md) - [Idea Collaboration Hubs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/idearify.md) - [Thought-Provoking Social Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/thoughtprovoking-social-app.md)
