Got a widget idea? We'll tell you if it's doable in 3 business days.

You describe what your widget should do. We review feasibility, effort, and the right data source. Written, personal, free. No sales pitch, no phone-tag loop.

Discussed today, live in days
No waiting on IT
Test live in your Staffbase stage

What is the Widget Check?

You have a concrete idea: a lunch menu per location, a mood barometer for shift workers, a shift schedule display, a restructuring FAQ widget. But you don’t know whether Staffbase covers it natively, what custom development would cost, or which data source is realistic.

The Widget Check answers exactly those questions. Sascha and Jens look at your idea personally. No bot reply, no generic marketing email. You get an honest assessment that you can use to decide internally or to justify a budget.

What you get

  • Feasibility. Can it be done with Widget Builder, with native Staffbase tools, or does it need custom development? Straight answer, no sales filter.
  • Effort and time. Realistic range in days, not in “phases”. Including who on your side needs to be involved (IT, HR, data owner).
  • Best option. We name the option that delivers value fastest, even if it’s not the most expensive one. For simple use cases, we tell you that you don’t need to buy anything.
  • Risks and blind spots. Data sources, permissions, update cycles, mobile behaviour. The typical pitfalls that only surface after the contract is signed in a standard sales process.

How does it work?

  1. Submit your idea. You fill out the form. Three minutes is enough if you know your use case. Sketches, screenshots, or links are welcome.
  2. We review within 3 business days. Sascha and Jens take a look. We ask follow-up questions by email if needed. No canned response, a real assessment.
  3. Personal call invitation. If the idea has substance, we propose a 30-minute call. If not, you still get the written assessment with reasoning.

Why JASP?

  • Staffbase partner. We’ve been building custom widgets for Staffbase customers for years, not generic intranet building blocks.
  • EU hosting. Widget Builder runs on Microsoft Azure in Germany. Data does not leave the EU.
  • Sascha and Jens personally. No sales pipeline, no SDR funnel. The assessment comes from the two founders who also build the widgets themselves.

Who is this for?

This fits you if:

  • You work in internal comms, employee experience, HR, or IT
  • You use Staffbase or are planning the rollout
  • You have a concrete idea or problem that a widget could solve
  • You want an honest take before you commit a budget
  • You want to know whether you need an agency or can do it yourself

Not a great fit if:

  • You want to chat about intranets or employee apps in general (that’s what our magazine is for)
  • You’re looking for a full Staffbase implementation (partners like SUNZINET, Telekom MMS, or Kammann Rossi do that)
  • You already know you want to build it yourself (then start with the free Starter plan directly)
  • You’re sending an RFP to 20 vendors (we don’t deliver boilerplate responses)

What does the Widget Check cost?

Nothing. The assessment is free, with no obligation and no mandatory follow-up call. We invest the time because every idea teaches us something about what comms teams actually need.

If you do want a widget built afterwards, our normal pricing applies: Starter is and stays free, Pro is 149 EUR per month, Enterprise is custom. The Widget Check is not a bait offer with a hidden follow-up contract.

Frequently asked questions

Who reviews my idea?
Sascha Henning and Jens J. Oldenburg, the two partners of JASP. No junior consultants, no SDRs, no automated AI response generator. When the assessment arrives, one of us has written it personally.
What if you can't build the widget?
We tell you honestly and name a sensible alternative if we know one. Sometimes that’s a native Staffbase plugin, sometimes another partner, sometimes a small in-house build by your IT. We want to sell solutions, not tickets.
Who sees my data?
Only Sascha and Jens. Form data is encrypted and stored in our system on Microsoft Azure in Germany. We share nothing with third parties, we don’t sell addresses, we don’t train AI models with your use case. Full GDPR compliance, data processing agreement available on request.
How fast does the answer come?
Within three business days from receipt. Nine times out of ten, we’re faster. If we have follow-up questions, we get back to you within one business day.
Is this GDPR-compliant?
Yes. You give explicit consent via a checkbox, we host in the EU, and you can request information about your data or have it deleted at any time. Details in our privacy policy .

Send us your widget idea

Three minutes is enough if you know your use case. Required fields are marked with *.

So we know who we're talking to.

Staffbase status

This affects what we can recommend. For early evaluation, native Staffbase is often enough.

Helps us estimate scaling assumptions.

At least 80 characters. The more concrete, the better the assessment.

Where is the data? (multiple possible)

Multiple selections allowed. "Unclear" is a valid answer; we'll figure it out together.

Only if you'd prefer a quick call to email. We don't cold-call.

The form is being finalized. In the meantime, email us at wb@jasp.eu, and we'll reply personally within 3 business days.

What happens next

Within three business days of receiving your request, Sascha or Jens replies personally with the written assessment. If your idea is a fit, we propose a 30-minute call. Your decision whether to take it.

No newsletter trick, no hidden drip funnel. If you don’t want to hear from us again after the Widget Check, that’s fine.
