The review

Start with the issues that matter most

Alongside its detailed comments, Refine assesses your document as a whole: the few decisive issues that would change how an editor, reviewer or funder judges it.

How it works

  1. 1

    Refine reads the whole document

    It reads your text and figures, and works out what your document sets out to do and who will judge it.

  2. 2

    It weighs what is decisive

    It picks the issues whose resolution would change that judgment.

  3. 3

    It opens your results

    The overall feedback sits at the top of your review, above the detailed comments.

Key benefits

The big picture first

Know what matters most before you work through individual comments.

Decisive, not exhaustive

It leaves formatting and style aside and focuses on what affects the outcome.

Written for your field

The assessment adapts to your discipline and the kind of document you wrote.

Part of your workflow

Discuss it, ask the chat about it and resolve it, just like any other comment.
