Global R&D on Demand. Breakthrough Solutions When No Answer Exists.

When your hardest technical challenges can't be solved internally, Wazoku connects you with 500,000+ solvers, a marketplace of existing IP, and the infrastructure to manage R&D innovation at scale.

The Challenge

Traditional R&D is sequential. You assign a team. They work the problem. The cost is fixed. The timeline is long.

And the probability of breakthrough is constrained by whoever happens to be in the room. Many of the best solutions come from adjacent fields — people who see your problem from an angle your internal team never would.

But most organisations have no systematic way to access that expertise. Wazoku changes that.

How Wazoku Transforms R&D

Parallel problem-solving at global scale. Four routes, each matched to the nature of your challenge.

Route 1 — Vetted Solutions, Inventions & IP

Sometimes the answer already exists. Innocentive's marketplace surfaces proven technologies and existing IP from a global network. You don't pay to search. You pay when you find something worth licensing.

Route 2 — Experts & Specialist Talent

Some challenges need a person, not a product. Wazoku connects you to 500,000+ vetted specialists worldwide. No discovery fee — you only pay when you commission.

Route 3 — Startups & Solution Partners

Emerging companies have often already built what you need. Wazoku's partner ecosystem lets you identify, vet, and pilot solutions quickly — minimal upfront cost, terms agreed on outcomes.

Route 4 — Invention on Demand

When no solution exists anywhere, hundreds of solvers work your problem simultaneously, each bringing different expertise and methods. You pay for solutions, not effort.

Why Wazoku for R&D Innovation

500,000+ solvers, every discipline.

From chemistry to AI to mechanical engineering — across 200+ countries. 80% of winning solutions come from solvers outside the seeker's hiring profile.

Pay for solutions, not effort.

De-risk R&D investment with challenge-based models. Fixed costs only when a solution is found and accepted — not for time spent searching.

Proven track record.

Over 2,500 challenges completed. More than $60 million awarded to solvers. A 20-year-old problem solved in weeks for $20,000 — by a chemist with zero oil industry experience.

End-to-end platform.

From problem definition through to value realisation — including White Glove Solution Development that takes awarded concepts from TRL 3 to TRL 9.
