|---|---|---|
Purposedifferent | When a workshop has produced too many options and the group needs to condense quickly, dot voting makes preferences visible in a short time. It bundles individual votes into a solid signal for the next selection. | When demand only needs to be roughly verified, it tests interest with minimal effort. It measures whether people would take a next step at all. |
