I feel after a brief initial read of the landing page that Kialo might be trying to do too much... It seeks to have debates over hot-topics in the public, but also wants to be a tool for private debates, or just for "private discussion?" Then there's also a catering towards this being used in enterprises? I'm not sure if this is supposed to be a product, but the entrepreneur in me screams "too large of a scope!"

Agreed. It's one of our main issues, we are effectively three startups: 1 public discussions / repository of the why / community 2 free edtech solution 3 SAAS for decision-making, -preparation, ideation... We have for now focussed on 1, as we consider it the hardest and most pertinent problem. 2 We are deploying a dedicated edu cluster in 2 weeks. Already quite popular for classroom debates (some Harvard profs being the first to use it), introducing students to controversial issues, etc 3 We provide teams for free right now and are building another cluster for them. (they too do not want to be inundated with gun / atheist debates) In the end, our core, is something like a wiki technology. When we launched, we didn't know what would stick and now we have all three kind of sticking. 3 being the one that has received the least amount of love till now, as companies seem to be doing ok, regarding decision-making, even though everybody hates emails, chat and meetings...
