The Spigit API



As companies embrace a wide variety of communications tools, it is becoming increasingly more difficult to separate the signal from the noise in order to identify the best ideas and the most influential contributors. Spigit offers a full set of APIs that can plug into existing enterprise collaboration tools and social networks to identify and extract the kind of useful and relevant information managers need to make key decisions. Spigit applies algorithms to enterprise collaboration tools and online networks in order to effectively quantify and identify quality contributions, good ideas, and key contributors.

Spigit's APIs are the core technology behind Spigit's award-winning IdeaSpigit platform, and feature RepUrank (for Reputation Management), IdeaRank (for evaluating ideas and content) technologies as well as Spigit's robust Currency Management System. Spigit's APIs are modularized and designed to integrate with any internal or external communication systems, including:
  • Enterprise Collaboration Tools and Social Networks
  • Web 2.0 Technologies
  • Review and Voting Systems
  • Message Boards
  • Content Management Systems
  • Survey and Polling Systems
  • CRM Applications
  • Tagging Systems
  • Idea Management Systems
Companies can leverage Spigit's APIs for existing features, while at the same time providing new interactive features such as voting, review mechanisms, reputation assignment, currency distribution and rankings. Most importantly, Spigit produces hundreds of metrics and a statistical breakdown that can be provided on a single or series of management dashboards.
