In today’s fast-paced world, everyone—from individual creators to large brands—is facing unique challenges. What if we had a place where we could share those problems openly, and connect with people who are passionate about solving them?

Welcome to Problemthon, a powerful new feature inspired by the hackathon concept, but focused on identifying and solving real-world problems.


What is Problemthon?

Problemthon is a space where experts, entrepreneurs, creators, and brands come together to share the problems they’re facing. But instead of coding all night like a traditional hackathon, the goal is to post real challenges—and let the world’s problem solvers tackle them.

It’s like saying:
“Here’s a problem I’m dealing with—can someone help fix it?”

And what happens next? Someone somewhere finds a solution. And just like that, we take one step closer to a better world.


How Does Problemthon Work?

  • You’re an expert or a creator—and you face problems daily.

  • You post those challenges on FME’s Problemthon.

  • Other experts see them and can offer insights, solutions, or data.

  • Brands can also post their customer feedback or business issues.

  • Experts suggest improvements, innovative ideas, or research-backed solutions.

  • Everyone learns. Everyone grows.


Real-World Example

Let’s say a fitness brand is losing customer retention.
They post this issue on Problemthon.
A fitness coach sees the post and shares data showing customer motivation drops after 3 weeks—along with a solution: create a 30-day gamified challenge.
The brand applies it. Engagement increases.
✅ Problem solved. Brand wins. Expert gets recognition—and gets paid.


What’s in it for Experts?

All Problemthon content is monetized by default on FME.

  • Brands, data collectors, or entrepreneurs must subscribe to view your posts.

  • Either they subscribe to your individual profile OR through FME Partner Program.

  • The subscription revenue is redistributed to experts based on views, reach, and engagement.

In short:
You share problems, help others, and earn income from your insights.
No more helping for free. You get paid for your expertise and contributions.
