Peer Review Software
Save Weeks of Admin Time on Abstract Peer Review.
Managing hundreds or thousands of abstract reviews without the right abstract peer review system can add hours of administrative work and increase the risk of errors. When submissions are competing for limited spots, you can’t afford for those that don’t meet your criteria to slip through the cracks. X-CD’s abstract peer review software helps your team streamline reviews, reduce manual work, and maintain a rigorous, organized selection process.
With reviewer sign-up forms, handpicked reviewers can select their topic preferences, helping ensure they receive abstracts they are willing and qualified to review.
There's no need to spend hours assigning thousands of peer reviews one by one. Our abstract peer review software takes on the heavy lifting, automating the process of distributing submissions to appropriate reviewers and ensuring minimum review requirements are met.
Run as many rounds of peer review as necessary to thoroughly assess submissions and review any additional materials submitted throughout the process, including disclosures, papers, PPTs, cases, and more.
