Loomio helps your organization make decisions together
at the right pace,
with clear reasoning, and a shared record of why
Important decisions buried in threads nobody can find. The wrong people weren't copied. There's no record of why.
Discussions scroll past before half your team wakes up. Weighty decisions made by whoever happens to be online.
You spend 30 minutes approving minutes. The same debates resurface because nobody remembers what was decided.
Start a focused thread with background information. Tag the right people. Give everyone time to think without letting decisions drift.
People don't just click agree — they share why. When someone disagrees, you see their thinking. Perspectives shift, better outcomes emerge.
Every decision has a clear result, next steps, and a timestamp. Years later, you can find it and understand the context.

130 people from 32 countries bought apartments together. Now they have to run a business, a community, and a building — democratically.
"Loomio is very important for us, not just from the perspective of input we want to gather, but from the archival perspective. People can point to the exact discussion when a decision was made, and why."Anton Arapov, OpenSSL Project
When the whole internet depends on your library, you can't make decisions behind closed doors anymore.
"One of our first decisions at the General Assembly was to make Loomio decisions count as official ones. It's in our Articles of Association that we can use this sort of governance."Anja Petkovic Komel, Argot Collective
Twenty-eight developers spun out of the Ethereum Foundation with no hierarchy, no executives, and a rule that every decision must have everyone's consent.
"We needed to add clarity and transparency to the decision-making process. Now that we have implemented Loomio, we can see and trust that the decision the team made is the best we could have done at the time."Marin Petrov, Camplight
As the team grew past 20, the old way of deciding things stopped working.
