Review Rejection Diagnostician

Why the paper was rejected — read from where reviewers agree, not their tone.

The situation

The paper came back rejected and the reviews contradict each other. One was brutal and one was kind, and reading them again at midnight is not producing an answer.

What actually happens

  1. You give it the reviews and the paper.
  2. It reads for where independent reviewers agree, not for how they said it.
  3. It stops at the first place the paper actually broke down.
  4. You know what to fix before you resubmit.

Where it stops

It reads the agreement between reviewers, and stops at the first break. Its rules call that the diagnosis site — one cause, rather than a tour of the tone.
