The hardest part of running a jury isn't the jury

It’s everything that happens after. Three hours of evaluation can turn into days of Excel merging, score normalization, and accreditation paperwork.

The evaluation should be the work. The paperwork shouldn’t.

Meet VERA, a jury evaluation platform that turns post-jury work into a structured, export-ready workflow.

  • Jurors scan a QR code, enter a PIN, and score from their phone. No accounts, no app to install.
  • Coordinators monitor live rankings and jury activity in real time.
  • When the jury ends, ABET / MÜDEK criterion-mapped reports, XLSX/PDF exports, and a tamper-evident audit trail are ready.

VERA debuts at TED University’s Electrical and Electronics Engineering Capstone Exhibition on May 22.

If you run jury-based evaluations — capstones, competitions, hackathons, or innovation programs — VERA is free. Spin up your event in under a minute.
