About Starmind

Starmind is domiciled in Meilen, Switzerland and was founded in June 2010 as Incorporation (Starmind International AG). Starmind.com is constituted as an online platform and social web for trading know-how between individuals while actively locating talents around the globe to join the Starmind community.

The Starmind Principle

The Starmind portal allocates questions to qualified question solvers. Questions are posted combined with rewards. The Starmind Community transfers solutions and intellectual property to question posers. Question posers define a maximal reward to which the published reward increases over time. Question solvers who submit solutions for a low reward and therefore at an early stage have a greater chance of receiving the reward. This mechanism assures global competition and a natural selection of those talents who are either highly familiar with the subject, have solved a similar question already or want to use Starmind as platform to successfully present their individual knowhow and therefore themselves. Both question posers and question solvers benefit while new solutions are created ceaselessly. Starmind claims a part of the transferred rewards.

What it is

The Starmind Golden Brain

Starmind allows you to outsource tricky or trivial problems (for which you have no time or resources) to highly motivated Starmind question solvers around the globe. The Starmind online-portal unites graduates from the world’s top universities, business professionals, talents and creative minds who are willing to share their knowledge with you.

The Starmind portal www.starmind.com has been founded by graduates and scientists from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) and University of Zurich, Switzerland. Its goal is to ease knowledge exchange between talents, universities and businesses through collaboration with leading universities: Starmind systematically singles out experts, bright minds and talents and makes precious know-how visible and accessible.

How it works

  • The solution to a problem published on Starmind must be at least EUR 10.- of value for the question poser as this is the minimum reward for which a question can be posted.
  • The question poser only pays a previously defined reward for positively rated solutions. Depending on the rating, the entire reward or part of it will be transferred to the question solver.
  • When rating a solution, the question poser considers quality and ease of understanding of the solution as well as the question solver’s Starmind profile.
  • The payout and rating behavior of a question poser is visible to the question solver. Thanks to the transparent payment and rating system, the risk for question posers as well as question solvers is minimized.
  • Question solvers naturally look for questions which they can solve with ease and which lie within their field of expertise. The Starmind system attracts talents, experts and out-of-the-box-thinkers, guarantees fairness and is simply fun.
