FAQ's

What is Rypple?

Rypple is simply the best way to get useful feedback. It's quick, direct, and easy. Successful people have friends, mentors, managers, and clients they view as trusted advisers. These people can give real, useful feedback but it's often hard for them to give helpful advice. Rypple fixes this by giving you control. You choose your advisers, questions relevant to you, when and how often you ask for feedback, and what to do with it.

Is Rypple private and confidential?

Yes! Only you can see the questions you've asked and the responses you've received. The identity of each respondent is carefully protected, even from the person who asked the question, so that they can feel free to be completely honest. Companies providing Rypple to their employees don't have access to the questions and answers but can see aggregated statistics and TouchBase worksheets.

Why is Rypple better than email or face-to-face feedback?

Email and face-to-face meetings are good but they take too long and are not anonymous. Rypple lets you ask and answer questions when it's convenient. Both you and your advisers enjoy complete privacy: comments are not linked to the names of your advisers; and others (including your boss) don't see what people are saying about you. Best of all, Rypple keeps all your feedback in one place so you know how you're doing over time.

How long does it take?

Rypple is often faster than sending an email! It takes about two minutes to ask a question and select the advisers you want to send it to. It takes a couple of minutes for them to give clear, short, and direct feedback. We save everyone's time by only asking one question at a time and limiting its length (140 characters) and the length of the responses (200 characters).
