Market Overview:
The global online knowledge question-and-answer market is expected to grow at a CAGR of XX% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for online knowledge question-and-answer platforms from various end users, such as male and female. Additionally, the growing trend of using hybrid and passive Q&A platforms is also contributing significantly to the growth of this market. North America dominates the global online knowledge question-and-answer market, followed by Europe and Asia Pacific. However, Asia Pacific is expected to witness highest CAGR during the forecast period owing to rising adoption of internet and smartphones in countries such as China and India.
Product Definition:
Question-and-answer sites are websites where users can ask and answer questions. The importance of online knowledge question-and-answer is that it allows people to share their knowledge and find information quickly.
Active:
Active is a tool that helps in creating and managing online knowledge-based Q&A sites. It provides features such as user registration, account creation, profile building, content management system integration (article posting), question statistics and analytics tools. The software also offers an API for developers to integrate their applications with the platform.
The global active online knowledge base market was valued at USD 648 million in 2016.
Hybrid:
Hybrid system is a combination of multiple technologies that work together to provide better results. It includes Artificial Intelligence (AI), Natural Language Processing (NLP), and Machine Learning (ML). The key benefit of hybrid technology is that it enables organizations to harness the power of all these technologies at once, instead of using one or the other. For instance, an NLP-based search engine can understand what users mean even if they don’t explicitly state it in the description text box.
Application Insights:
The male application segment held the largest share of over 60.0% in 2017. This is attributed to the large number of males who use online Q&A services for health-related queries as compared to females. In addition, males spend more time on internet than females do and hence this platform caters their needs better than female-oriented websites do. The female application segment is expected to witness a significant growth rate during the forecast period owing to increasing usage of mobile phones which have internet connectivity facilities with them, thereby enabling them access knowledge bases and other resources from anywhere in the world with just one mouse button press through QR code scanning facility provided by smartphones or mobile devices running Google Android operating system or Apple iOS operating system respectively.
The hybrid type Q&A market has witnessed considerable growth over recent years due largely to its ease of use by non-techies as well as techies; it does not require any special software installation like Flash Player or Java Runtime Environment (JRE).
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in 2017. This can be attributed to the presence of a large number of companies and high adoption rate for new technologies in this region. Asia Pacific is expected to grow at a lucrative CAGR over the forecast period owing to increasing internet penetration, rising awareness about online Q&A platforms, and growing demand for on-demand knowledge across various industries in countries such as China, Japan, India among others. Moreover, several startups are venturing into this space with an aim to provide high-quality content on their respective verticals thus contributing significantly towards regional growth. For instance; In February 2018; Byju's launched its English learning app called 'Byju's English' which provides interactive lessons based upon real questions asked from students throughout India along with detailed answers provided by teachers within minutes after submission of queries by students (watch video here).
Growth Factors:

- Proliferation of mobile devices and apps that make accessing Q&A content easier than ever before
- Emergence of social media platforms that facilitate peer-to-peer Q&A interactions
