OpenGenius Ltd

OpenGenius Ltd is a Welsh company based in Penarth in Cardiff and is the creator of one of the world’s leading innovation software programs, AYOA (Ayoa.com), an all-in-one tool for idea generation and collaboration that goes beyond traditional task management.

Chris and Gaile Griffiths founded OpenGenius Ltd in 2005 with the mission to help people think better using technology. OpenGenius Ltd promotes inclusion through assistive technology designed to benefit everyone, no matter their differences.

AYOA assists users in planning, writing documents, managing tasks, and presenting findings. It also has many features to support those with challenges in literacy, writing, note-taking, focus, prioritisation, time management, and more.

AYOA is very popular in UK schools and universities because of inbuilt tools that support neurodivergent individuals, it is frequently recommended for students in receipt of Disabled Students Allowances (DSAs) and is one of the fastest growing products in the sector. AYOA is the Tech Radar mind mapping product of the year 2025.

We would like to make connections with Southeast Asian schools and universities where we feel there may be an appetite for our product as it can be used not only in English, but in multiple languages including Chinese, Japanese and Korean.
