Platform Features
Everything a program chair needs — nothing they don't.
Multi-Format Submissions
Full paper, short paper, poster, demo, workshop, and doctoral consortium. Configurable page limits per type. Multi-author with corresponding author designation.
Flexible Review Modes
Single-blind, double-blind, or open review — configurable per conference or per track. Reviewer identities and author identities controlled independently.
Criterion-Based Scoring
Customizable review criteria with weighted scores. Default criteria: novelty, technical soundness, significance, clarity, related work, reproducibility. Auto-computed overall score.
Conflict of Interest Detection
5 COI types: self-declared, author-declared, auto-affiliation, auto-coauthor, and chair-declared. Automatic detection prevents biased assignments and protects review integrity.
Reviewer Bidding
Reviewers indicate willingness (Yes, Maybe, No, Conflict) and self-assess expertise per paper. Enables intelligent, expertise-matched reviewer assignment with workload balancing.
Rebuttal & Meta-Review
Optional author rebuttal phase — authors respond to reviewer comments. Senior PC members can write meta-reviews to guide chair decisions. Reviewers can revise scores post-rebuttal.
Author & Reviewer Portals
Self-service portals for all stakeholders. Authors submit, track status, and upload revisions. Reviewers access papers, submit reviews, and manage bids — all from their browser.
Multi-Track & Roles
Organize papers into thematic tracks with track-specific chairs. Role-based access: General Chair, PC Chair, Track Chair, Senior PC, PC Member, Author, Invited Speaker.
Automated Notifications
Customizable email templates for every workflow phase — submission confirmation, assignment notification, review reminders, decision letters, camera-ready instructions.
