Debategraph provides a powerful way for geographically distributed groups to collaborate in real-time in thinking through complex issues. It does so by enabling groups of any size to externalise, visualize, question, and evaluate all of the considerations that anyone thinks might be relevant to the issues at hand - and by facilitating an intelligent, constructive dialogue around those issues.
