How Review Works

Submissions

The whole call in one table, saved as views

Every application in one table, filtered by status, tags or any answer on the form. Save the list as a view for you or for everyone.

  • A warning icon where required answers are missing
  • Select all matching, not just this page
  • Actions dock to the list, then say exactly what happened
The submissions list with status tabs, filters and each team's sector, TRL, status and last activity.
Sort, filter and act on many applications at once.
IdeaScore AI

Describe who you're looking for

Type a sentence and IdeaScore AI turns it into the list's own filters, with a live count, before you apply them. It never reads an application.

  • On Submissions, Teams, Evaluators, the Leaderboard and Portfolio
  • Starting points from your own list, without IdeaScore AI
  • Contact and identity questions are never used as filters

No. It lists pairs with similar answers and writing patterns so reviewers know where to look closer. It is not proof of copying or AI use, it never changes a score, and only owners and admins see it.
Yes, the whole batch in one click from the history in the top bar for 24 hours. Emails already sent cannot be recalled. After 24 hours, reopen submissions one by one; reopening sends no email.
Only your words, with any contact details taken out first, and the list's filter names and options. It never sees an application, an answer, a team's name or a count.
