The Problem

Bias in the selection process

Even well-intentioned reviewers can be influenced by names, institutions, or demographics. Traditional review processes make it impossible to evaluate work purely on merit.

  • ×Unconscious bias affecting decisions
  • ×Prominent names getting preferential treatment
  • ×Difficulty proving selection was merit-based
  • ×No audit trail for compliance requirements

  • Anonymous IDs
