A boardroom that produces the decision, not just a form to log it

Cloverpop helps teams document and track decisions through a structured workflow. SynthBoard runs the multi-agent debate that produces the decision in the first place. Different mechanic, often complementary.

Start Free See How It Works

What you get

Multi-agent debate, not a single template

Five expert lenses argue your decision out live, with consensus scoring, watch-outs, and a written synthesis.

Structured by argument, not by form-fill

No checkbox lists, no required fields, no "log your decision here." A live boardroom-style session.

A decision artifact at the end

Every session produces a shareable synthesis. Log it in Cloverpop after, if that is your team's workflow.

Questions people ask

Real questions. Multiple expert perspectives. Every time.

“What is the actual decision here — and which option survives a steel-man?”

“How would a multi-perspective panel frame this differently than our internal team?”

“What is the watch-out we are about to commit to without noticing?”

“Which of these three options is the consensus pick — and what would it take to change it?”

“Where is our current decision-making process leaning on confirmation bias?”

Your Expert Team

Each expert thinks independently — they won’t just agree with each other.

The Strategist

The Strategist

Maps competitive dynamics and strategic options across multi-year horizons.

The Skeptic

The Skeptic

Questions every premise. Finds blind spots others miss.

The Data Scientist

The Data Scientist

Pulls the analysis behind every confident claim.

The Operator

The Operator

Turns strategy into the boring, sequenced work that actually ships.

The Empath

The Empath

Reads the emotional, cultural, and team dynamics behind the decision.

What you’ll get

A synthesized recommendation from your team of experts — not just opinions, but structured analysis.

Key Recommendations

Option A downside is recoverable but expensive — Option B caps the cost
Asymmetric risk profile favours the incremental path
Option C (defer entirely) was the weakest — sequencing matters
Decision is reversible at the 30-day checkpoint built into Option B

Synthesized Recommendation

Option B (incremental rollout) carries higher expected value than Option A (full launch) at this stage of the product. The asymmetry between recoverable downside and uncapped upside argues for the slower path.

Full analysis continues with detailed reasoning, trade-offs, and next steps...

Watch Out For

Incremental rollout requires explicit kill criteria — write them down now
Internal narrative will pressure toward Option A — guard against this
The 30-day checkpoint must be in the calendar before the decision is logged

Why SynthBoard for this

Multi-agent debate vs single-template form

Cloverpop is a workflow tool. SynthBoard is a debate engine. Different categories of product.

Adversarial by construction

The synths argue. Cloverpop's template asks you to argue with yourself.

A synthesis, not a checklist

Every session ends with a written recommendation and watch-outs you can hand to your team.

Useful before, not just after

Cloverpop documents decisions. SynthBoard produces them. Use both — debate first, log second.

Common questions

The questions people ask before they sign up.

Is SynthBoard a direct replacement for Cloverpop?

No — different mechanic. Cloverpop is a decision-documentation and team-workflow tool. SynthBoard is a multi-agent boardroom that produces the decision. Many teams use them sequentially: SynthBoard for the debate, Cloverpop for the workflow logging.

When should I use SynthBoard instead of Cloverpop?

When the gap is the decision itself, not the documentation of it. When you want adversarial multi-perspective debate, not a structured intake form. When the question is strategic and benefits from five lenses, not a single checklist.

When is Cloverpop still the right tool?

When the gap is team alignment, accountability, and audit trail across many decisions. When you have a large org and need a consistent decision-documentation workflow. When the value is in tracking outcomes against decisions over time. Cloverpop is a workflow product; SynthBoard is a debate product.

How does the price compare?

SynthBoard is free to start; paid tiers run low double-digit dollars per month. Cloverpop pricing is enterprise-quoted and varies. The two products are not in the same category, so direct price comparison is misleading.

What does SynthBoard NOT do that Cloverpop does?

No decision-tracking workflow across hundreds of decisions, no team-wide accountability dashboard, no outcome-vs-decision tracking over months, no role-based-access decision intake. SynthBoard is a thinking room, not a workflow product.

Can I use SynthBoard and Cloverpop together?

Yes, and many teams do. Use SynthBoard to run the multi-perspective debate that produces a clear recommendation. Then log that decision in Cloverpop with the action plan and accountability fields. Different mechanics, complementary value.
