Quick Start for Reviewers

Reviewers evaluate submitted assessments, apply verdicts, and create findings. Here's how the review process works.

Step 1: Find Assessments to Review

1.Go to Assessments in the sidebar
2.Filter by status Submitted or Under Review
3.Click on an assessment to start reviewing

Step 2: Open the Review Dashboard

The review dashboard shows:

  • All domains and questions with respondent answers
  • Evidence files attached by the respondent
  • AI-suggested scores (if enabled)
  • Space for your verdicts and notes

Step 3: Apply Verdicts

For each question:

1.Review the respondent's answer and any attached evidence
2.Apply a verdict:

- Pass — The response adequately addresses the question

- Fail — The response is insufficient or incorrect

3.Optionally override the AI-computed score
4.Add reviewer notes explaining your decision

Step 4: Create Findings

When you identify gaps or issues:

1.Click Create Finding on the relevant question
2.Describe the finding
3.Set a severity level (Low, Medium, High, Critical)
4.Optionally assign remediation to a team member
5.Set a remediation deadline

Findings help track issues that need to be addressed and can be monitored for resolution.

Step 5: Complete the Review

Once all questions have verdicts:

1.Review the overall scores displayed
2.Check that all findings have been documented
3.Click Complete Review

Step 6: Finalize the Assessment

After review is complete, the assessment can be finalized:

1.Click Finalize Assessment
2.Confirm the action — this locks all scores permanently
3.A scoring report and compliance certificate (if applicable) are generated
