{"slug":"peer-review-response-evidence-planner","name":"Peer-review response evidence planner","category":"Science and Research","customer":"Academic authors revising manuscripts","problem":"Response letters lose track of which changes address each comment.","value":"For academic authors revising manuscripts, turn authorized reviewer comments and manuscript versions into coauthor-approved review response pack. Address this specific problem: response letters lose track of which changes address each comment. The aim: every response tied to an actual manuscript change or stated rationale. The pilot tests whether that benefit holds up against reviewer effort and real operating costs.","format":"Source-based content workspace with editorial delivery","screens":"Key screens: Comment matrix, Revision evidence, Response draft. Use a project list and editorial calendar beside a document editor. Keep original material and supporting passages in a collapsible side panel. Show outline, draft, review and approved stages. Provide tracked edits, comments, version comparisons and an export preview that reflects the final delivery format. Open with comment matrix; move into revision evidence for the detailed task; finish in response draft for review and handoff. Show the source record, uncertainty and approval status beside each proposed output.","functionality":"1. Separate reviewer requests. 2. Link manuscript changes. 3. Flag unanswered points. 4. Draft factual responses. 5. Track coauthor approval. 6. Export response letters.","workflow":"The buyer creates a project, supplies authorized reviewer comments and manuscript versions, and confirms scope and access. The working sequence is: 1. Separate reviewer requests. 2. Link manuscript changes. 3. Flag unanswered points. 4. Draft factual responses. 5. Track coauthor approval. 6. Export response letters. Users correct extracted facts, resolve flagged uncertainties and approve the final coauthor-approved review response pack before use. Retain source links and a version history for the next cycle.","ai":"Draft responses from documented revisions only. Keep model suggestions separate from verified facts. Link factual outputs to authorized input evidence and show missing information explicitly. Use deterministic checks for counts, dates, identifiers and arithmetic where applicable. A designated reviewer validates consequential outputs and signs off the delivered result.","inputs":"Authorized reviewer comments and manuscript versions","deliverables":"Coauthor-approved review response pack","admin":"Client workspaces, source permissions, editorial assignments, change history, reviewer comments, approval gates, revision allowances and export templates. Include organization-scoped access, named project owners, review queues, usage limits, export history and retention settings. Never reuse private customer material for other accounts without permission.","mvp":"Costed pilot: No fabricated analyses or claims of changes not made. Start with one buyer organization and a bounded set of representative inputs. Implement the first two modules: separate reviewer requests; link manuscript changes. Support the third task through an assisted review queue: flag unanswered points. Handle the remaining required functions manually until validated. Include input upload, source references, user correction, a reviewer approval step and export of coauthor-approved review response pack. Authentication, account isolation, deletion controls and basic operational logging are included. Specialized production certification, live write integrations and broader rollout are not included unless explicitly stated.","expansion":"After paying customers repeatedly accept coauthor-approved review response pack, automate draft factual responses; track coauthor approval; export response letters. Add one tested read integration, reusable customer configuration and scheduled repeat delivery. Increase supported formats or teams only when evaluation cases and reviewer capacity cover the new scope. No fabricated analyses or claims of changes not made.","usp":"Every response tied to an actual manuscript change or stated rationale.","defensibility":"Customer-approved terminology, reusable structures, source libraries and editorial feedback tied to a specific audience and recurring publishing workflow. For this concept, accumulate permissioned examples and reviewer corrections around every response tied to an actual manuscript change or stated rationale. The durable asset is reliable task-specific execution and trusted customer configuration, not access to a general-purpose AI model.","alternatives":"Writers, editors, agencies, internal document templates and general-purpose chat tools. Position this concept around every response tied to an actual manuscript change or stated rationale. Compare it against the customer's current process on the same representative task. This is proposed differentiation; no exhaustive competitor study or uniqueness claim has been established.","revenue":"Test USD 400-1,500 for a tightly scoped initial content package. Convert repeated work to a monthly retainer with explicit deliverable and revision limits. Specialist review and substantial research are separately scoped. Prices are hypotheses. For this buyer, package the first sale around map one review round and the defined coauthor-approved review response pack. Record actual review effort before offering a recurring allowance. The commercial pilot fee is distinct from the platform development budget.","costs":"Research and interview time, transcription, model usage, factual verification, subject-matter review, editing and revisions. Initial validation additionally budgets for researcher editorial review. Track model usage, storage, reviewer minutes, exception handling and customer support per accepted deliverable.","integrations":"Authorized datasets, papers, protocols, code and research records. Document storage, word processor export, content management systems and approved publishing channels. Pilot with uploads and downloadable drafts before adding write integrations. Begin with uploads and exports of authorized reviewer comments and manuscript versions. Any named system or connector is a candidate requiring current access and compatibility checks; no live connection is included by default.","dependencies":"Document parsing, a source-linked editor, tracked revisions, reviewer workflow and reliable document export. Rich presentation or print output needs format-specific QA. Obtain representative authorized inputs, an agreed review rubric and a buyer-side owner. Specific scope: No fabricated analyses or claims of changes not made.","pilot":"Agree the acceptance criteria, input limits and reviewer responsibilities before starting. Run map one review round and deliver coauthor-approved review response pack. Compare unanswered comments and response preparation time with the buyer's current process on comparable cases; include corrections, missed issues and reviewer time. Seek payment and repeat use. Stop or revise the scope if data access, accuracy or unit economics fail.","plan30":"Week 1: interview five prospective buyers from academic authors revising manuscripts and inspect how they handle response letters lose track of which changes address each comment. Week 2: prepare map one review round using authorized or synthetic material. Week 3: share the demonstration through university writing centers and researcher communities and seek one bounded paid pilot. Week 4: measure unanswered comments and response preparation time, review delivery effort and ask for a repeat purchase. This is a validation schedule, not a promise that the full product can be built in thirty days.","metrics":"Unanswered comments and response preparation time","channels":"University writing centers and researcher communities","leadMagnet":"Map one review round","message":"Every response tied to an actual manuscript change or stated rationale. Demonstrate the result with map one review round for academic authors revising manuscripts. Use a concrete before-and-after example without promising unmeasured savings.","retention":"Build repeat use around coauthor-approved review response pack. Save approved configurations and review decisions with permission, revisit unresolved exceptions and show progress on unanswered comments and response preparation time. Offer a recurring volume allowance after repeat demand; expand to adjacent tasks only when the buyer asks and delivery quality remains acceptable.","controls":"Preserve original data, methods, citations and research limitations. Use researcher review and document every substantive transformation. No fabricated analyses or claims of changes not made. Require appropriate access and publication approval. Preserve source material, label AI drafts and make corrections traceable. Measure false positives and missed cases alongside speed.","crossSector":"Education; Executives and Strategy","fn":["Separate reviewer requests","Link manuscript changes","Flag unanswered points","Draft factual responses","Track coauthor approval","Export response letters"],"sc":{"opp":7,"pain":7,"feas":6,"now":7},"phases":[{"name":"MVP","scope":"One buyer segment, one recurring use case; first modules: separate reviewer requests; link manuscript changes.
