Collective intelligence. Lasting capability.

The last consultant
you’ll ever need.

Your team has the answers.
We have the way to gather them.

Three focused months to set up team and company-wide decision-making groups, uncover pain points and prioritise possible solutions. Keep the groups, tools and know-how to do it again.

Independent voicesDiverse perspectivesMore than yes or no
The knowledge is already here

A different starting point

Before you look outside,
listen inside.

The people working with your customers, running your systems and navigating your processes see things an outside expert may never see.

The challenge is bringing that knowledge together. Giving it structure. And knowing what to act on.

What could you learn if everyone had a way to contribute?

PLYMOUTH, ENGLAND1906

It started
with an ox.

A simple question. Hundreds of different perspectives.

The wisdom of crowds

Almost 800 guesses.
One remarkable result.

At a fair in 1906, people estimated the dressed weight of an ox. Some were farmers and butchers. Others had far less experience. Their answers varied widely.

Francis Galton analysed 787 eligible entries. The crowd’s middle estimate was within 1% of the actual weight, as reported in his 1907 paper.

estimate and the actual weight

This became a famous illustration of the wisdom of crowds: bringing independent perspectives together can reveal something no single viewpoint can.

Different estimates. A collective view.

See what changes when you bring them together.

The conditions matter

A crowd is only as wise
as the way you listen.

Kog brings three ideas into the way your organisation makes decisions.

01 / Independent

Think first.
Discuss together.

Give people space to contribute their own judgement before the room settles on an answer. A quieter voice deserves the same chance to be heard.

02 / Diverse

Different roles.
A fuller picture.

Invite people with different experience, responsibilities and proximity to the problem. The person who sees the missing piece may be somewhere unexpected.

03 / Nuanced

Confidence.
Beyond yes or no.

A binary vote hides the difference between a hesitant yes and a strong conviction. Kog’s 0–100 confidence scale gives those differences room to show.

A well-run process helps the group think better. It doesn’t make every answer right. Why independence matters

What does “the last consultant” mean?

It’s the ambition behind Kog: help your organisation become better at finding its own answers. We leave you with groups, tools and know-how to keep finding pain points and working through solutions independently. The lasting capability goes beyond a single issue, survey or report. Specialist expertise still has its place.

What happens during the three-month engagement?

Month 1 establishes team and broader company decision-making groups, onboards people and runs initial decision cycles. Month 2 repeats the process, supports action and coaches internal facilitators. Month 3 moves to client-led cycles, reviews progress and completes handover of the groups, tools and know-how. We shape the scope and schedule together before starting; leadership retains final decisions.

Can we explore Kog before working together?

Yes. Open the platform to explore it or try its built-in voting practice. You can start as a guest. Save your space with Google to keep access across devices.

Are individual votes visible to the team?

Individual ballots aren’t shown to hosts or other participants through the app. Results are shown as aggregates. Database administrators can access the underlying records. See Kog’s privacy notice for the details.

Does the group’s highest score decide everything?

No. Scores help you understand the group’s confidence. Leadership retains final decision authority, weighing evidence, feasibility and responsibility. The results are a starting point for an informed decision, and you can run further rounds as ideas develop.

The next answer could already be in the room.
