While numerous software companies provide some of the features needed for end-to-end innovation, only ITONICS has the features needed for every phase of the process. Imagine you’re ordering take-out for lunch. Sure, you could get fries from one shop, a can of soda from another, and then your spicy wrap from a different one, getting a separate bill from each. Or you could conveniently fulfill your requirements from one provider with a package designed in a way that the various ingredients complement each other.

We’ve thought through the end-to-end innovation process for you, based on our experience working with of global industry leaders, to make sure you’re supported from start to finish. With ITONICS you’ll start by using our trend and emerging technologies content, specially curated by our analysts, as the launchpad for your own monitoring of change in the business environment. We call this the “Where to Play” phase of innovation — use the ITONICS Innovation OS to discover opportunities for growth.

The second phase “How to Win” involves gathering ideas and selecting the right concepts to solve specific challenges. This often involves ideation campaigns, but with ITONICS the ideas aren’t limited to just that phase. You can connect and pull information from previous phases into the execution phase, “What to Execute”, using our integrated portfolio and project management features.

ITONICS Innovation OS features in the end-to-end innovation process

We see ITONICS as an “operating system” for innovation because it effectively brings a range of tools together. Instead of you and your colleagues using an assortment of software or documents for growth strategy, foresight, environmental scanning, ideation, open innovation, portfolio management, or roadmapping, ITONICS is one integrated solution. It becomes a single point of truth to unify your company's innovation activities instead of scattered efforts by different teams across various documents and tools.

The ITONICS Innovation OS is a one-stop software solution. That advantage is what sets ITONICS apart from alternatives. Valuable content and tools are integrated and centralized in one platform so you can skip tedious tasks and get straight to what matters most. With ITONICS, innovation teams can scan through vast amounts of signals, arrive at answers fast, inspire fresh thinking and steer progress all the way to project execution and product launch.
