Kickstarter отличный пример неизбежного возврата системы из какого-то нестандартного состояния в более привычное. Изначально проект планировался, как помощь молодым изобретателям и инноваторам: авторы могли описывать идею нового устройства (идею игры, книги, дизайнерского предмета и т.д.), представляли публике простой прототип — как правило самодельный — и собирали деньги на его реализацию. То есть деньги как раз шли на то, чтобы разработать промышленный вариант и наладить производство. В теории можно было прийти на Кикстартер простым парнем из деревни, спаявшим прототип в гараже, и собрать средства на воплощение своей мечты в жизнь.
Однако со временем естественным образом привлекали больше внимания те, кто прошёл на момент презентации чуть дальше: сделал более качественный образец, заказал более дорогой видеоролик, или даже уже частично наладил какие-то производственные процессы. Это всё выродилось в то, что Кикстартер превратился из краудфандинговой площадки в магазин. А точнее сказать — Телемагазин. Отличие от обычного магазина в том, что в Телемагазине товар делает вид, что он уникален, и в других местах такой не купить. В остальном же теперь проекты выходят на Кикстартер с полностью готовым продуктом, полностью налаженной линией выпуска и профессиональной рекламой. Стоимость выхода на Кикстартер в наши дни нередко превышает потенциально возможные сборы. Всё больше краудфандинговых кампаний в качестве гола (то есть суммы, которую необходимо собрать) ставят глубоко формальную небольшую цифру. Сложное и дорогое электронное устройство просит для старта $20000 — в реальности этого не хватит даже на полноценный production-ready прототип. Например, пресс-форма для литья пластикового корпуса сама по себе может стоить $5000-$10000, а производство ещё даже не началось. Потому что на самом деле разработчики сейчас не выставляют свои идеи для сбора денег на воплощение. Они выставляют готовый товар в магазин.
Естественные и вроде бы правильные процессы (более качественное привлекает больше внимания) привели к искажению или даже исчезновению первоначальной цели проекта Кикстартер. Из интересной и необычной площадки по финансированию изобретений он стал магазином — тоже не совсем банальным, но с очень привычным механизмом работы как для продавцов, так и для покупателей. Исключения случаются, однако в целом тенденция очевидна.
На мой личный взгляд владельцам Кикстартера нужно было остановить это в своё время. Если на западе есть термин overqualified в качестве причины отказа при приёме на работу, то можно было и здесь балансировать допустимый уровень готовности продукта при публикации на площадке. Но что имеем, то имеем.
