sayso. turns youth opinion into paid civic decisions
An Australian platform pays 14–29-year-olds to weigh in on concrete local decisions, from bus routes and skate parks to youth budgets.
Field notes
Campaigns are structured as short decision sequences rather than open-ended opinion forms: the visible cards identify actions such as Choose, Build, Spend, Battle, and Discuss, then show screen counts and estimated completion times. Payments range from $6 to $18, with one campaign asking participants to allocate a youth budget while accounting for a stated $180,000 gap. The homepage describes the project as an early prototype and says outcomes will be published back to respondents.
