SpringIQ: Scholarship intelligence with purpose.

SpringIQ reads every application so your team reviews faster, every student gets a fair look, and every award honors what your donors intended.

01 · Applicant Summary

Every application, distilled to a paragraph.

SpringIQ writes a concise summary of each application, so reviewers understand an applicant in seconds, not after the fourth PDF.

  • Appears alongside each application in your Award & Deny view as guidance. You make the award decision.
  • Pulls out academics, activities, financial need, and essay themes
  • Ready the moment an application is complete. No setup per applicant.

02 · Applicant Score

A 0–100 signal, tuned to your criteria.

Configurable scoring applies your standards to every application the same way, every time, so decisions are consistent and comparable across the whole pool.

  • You choose the criteria and how much each one counts
  • Every application is scored on the same 0–100 scale
  • Sort and compare applicants side by side in Award & Deny

03 · Rubric: AI Scorecards

Your rubric, applied by AI.

Score essays against the rubric criteria you already use. SpringIQ evaluates every essay the way your best reviewer would on their best day.

  • Build a scorecard from the rubric criteria you already use
  • AI scores each essay against every criterion, with reasoning you can read
  • Reviewers see the full breakdown, and always have the final say

04 · Fit Score

Surface the students your scholarship was made for.

Fit Score measures how well each applicant matches the scholarship's goals, so donor intent shapes every award, not just the ones you have time to read closely.

  • Enabled per scholarship, using that scholarship's own goals
  • Every applicant gets a fit rating against those goals
  • Spend your deep reads where they'll actually change the outcome

05 · AI Detection

See which essays may not be the student's own words.

Flags essay responses likely written by AI, protecting the integrity of your process and the students who did the work themselves.

  • Toggle it on per essay or short-answer question
  • Flagged responses are marked right in the review view
  • A signal for reviewers, not a verdict. Your team makes the call.

Better reviews aren't the goal. Better outcomes are.

Your donors
Awards that demonstrably match donor intent, backed by criteria you can show, not just describe.
