What's this?

Banban Board™ helps you "compare clearly, choose easily" when choosing what to buy and working — not a shop itself or social media.

Use it solo, or share with remote friends and family in your organization — everyone can move cards to propose ideas.

When buying something, you can turn your internal thoughts — like “Which one is better?” or “What features does this have?” — into visible cards on your private board.

It works like your ex-mind, helping you organize your thoughts clearly — and make decisions easier. Cards are seamlessly integrated with helpful features like the item Comparator™, the smarter Banban Calc, Happy the AI dog, and more.

It's simple to use. Start by bookmarking products banban (more and more) from different shops or adding your ideas into cards. Then, move better cards to higher rows, and within a row, toward the left. The top-left card is your choice.

What can I do with moving the cards?

The features are integrated with the cards and work seamlessly.

Requestland and The Project

This feature is part of Requestland and The You Can Upgrade the Economy Yourself and Increase Everyone’s Income Project (The Jibu-Kei Project).

Users are participants. With this new technology, we aim to reduce growing economic inequality, increase everyone's (your) income, and encourage local economies.

Who's working on it?

We are a team of researchers and students from the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (Japan), the University of Tsukuba, the University of Tokyo, and others.

We founded the social startup Peace and Passion — not for profit, but to realize a future where everyone can live with peace of mind and passion.

Privacy?

Boards are private — this isn't social media.

Use solo or with remote friends and colleagues. You'll create your org (organization) when registering, and can invite others. Boards and messages stay within your org. No messages come from outside orgs.

Log in with passkeys using touch or face recognition. Users love its ease and security — no passwords needed.

We never share your personal data with third parties like ad networks.

Countries? Devices?

Available in about 190 countries. Requests supports 37 languages and about 170 currencies. It's in beta testing.

As it's a web app, available on both smartphones and computers with no installation required. Use "Add to home screen" to make it an app.

Is it for sellers?

Yes. For face-to-face sales ninjas, beautifully explain your products and simulate pricing for combinations with your customers.

If you create a new organization and invite your customers, they can simulate prices on their own until they’re fully satisfied. This will likely reduce discount requests.

Procurement and purchasing considerations become more efficient, along with internal decision-making.
