Principle 1: Split Someday/Maybe from current action

An actionable list, not a graveyard for ideas.

Backlogs are often graveyards of good intentions, with promising ideas buried under vague stakeholder suggestions, random customer feature requests and engineering wish-list items.

The fix is to keep separate areas for items at different levels of maturity, and to enforce different policies for each. Idea Banks sit before the real backlog — a holding place where raw signal can mature, accumulate evidence, and prove its worth before competing for engineering capacity.

Principle 2: Gather evidence

Confidence built from evidence, not gut feel.

Idea banks capture work that's planned but not yet detailed — the "Later" segment of Now-Next-Later roadmaps. Rough analysis, supporting documents and survey results attach to each idea as evidence.

Unlike Jira tickets that leak into sprint planning, or Confluence pages that sit in isolation, Idea Banks are structured enough to compare hundreds of items, yet loose enough that capturing a half-formed thought carries no implicit commitment.

Principle 3: Automate scoring

A self-maintaining shortlist of "Next" items.

With hundreds of items in the bank, the question becomes "which ones deserve attention next?". Votito offers a lightweight ICE scoring interface — quick estimates of impact, confidence and ease that teams can fill in collaboratively in seconds.

Confidence is calculated automatically from the evidence trail, so the score reflects what's actually known about an idea rather than how loudly someone advocated for it. Ideas rise to the top as the evidence grows.
