The Platform Canvas
Who owns the
platform?
Which services can
be offered for value
creation?
Which technologies
do we need to
enable the core
functions of the
platform?
Who contributes
to the platform
operations and
mission?
EXCHANGES
CHANNELS
& CONTEXTS
How and in which
forms is value
exchanged between
the producing and
consuming peers?
PARTNERS
PEERS
What are the major
data sources the
platform is based
on?
What is the concrete
surplus value for
users to participate?
What are peer
segments (producers,
consumers) in the
ecosystem?
Which channels are
used by the peer
segments to get in
contact and execute
transactions?
What are partners in
the ecosystem?

B2C: Intelligent bundling of a variety of products or services behind a simple service; contracts between consumer and platform, not between consumer and vendor
B2B: Provision of backbone data architecture with value-adding vertical services to facilitate other businesses in their core tasks
