Dapple is an all-in-one management platform helping businesses in the creative industry collect, review, manage and report on submissions. Whether it's running calls for entry, awards, accepting applications, managing contests or pitches, Dapple streamlines the whole process into one simple-to-use platform, saving users hours in admin.
Really like the “built by creatives for creatives” positioning. It shows in the design and simplicity. Tools in this space often feel corporate and outdated, so Dapple’s approach is refreshing.
Excited to see how smaller teams adopt this. What kind of early organizations or institutions have started using it?

@dkspeaks Thanks for your feedback - I agree! Organisations using us so far have included small publishers, presses, magazines and journals, art contests and exhibitions, residencies, academic institutions, non-profits and other creative contests and awards.
Congrats on the launch! The focus on making the experience intuitive and enjoyable, rather than corporate and clunky, really stands out. How flexible are the review panels when teams need different scoring styles or criteria?
Dapple
@vik_sh Thanks Viktor! Very flexible. You can set your own scoring criteria and voting options on an individual project level. Different projects, with different panels, all with their own customised settings.
Interesting! Thank you for the product. Just a quick note, I think the images on your website are poor quality, which detracts from the visual experience. Just an idea for upgrading your product :)

@diana_mirrorapp Hi Diana, thanks for the feedback! We'll certainly look at upgrading the website image quality asap!

@basharath Thanks!
So exciting! Good luck with your journey! My question is how customizable are the forms?
Dapple
@djolexv Hey! Forms are fully customizable. You can create an unlimited number of fields with all the field options such as dropdowns, selection boxes, single/radio etc. You can also brand all the forms with backgrounds, headers and themes etc. Thanks!

Does Dapple allow custom review workflows for different types of submissions?
Dapple
@abod_rehman Hey Abdul! Indeed it does. For each submission type (we call them "projects"), you can create your own customised workflow, based on that project's needs. E.g you could have a project with multiple payments and automations at each stage of the submission journey. You could simultaneously run a separate project with no payments and different (or no) automations set. Thanks for the question.

Ah, flashbacks. Ran a small arts award with Google Forms + messy sheets. Total chaos. Nice to see review panels + comms in one place. How’s blind judging handled and dupes deduped? Screens feel clean, not corporate. Could’ve used this last year.

@alexcloudstar Ah shame we weren't around then to help you out! Personal creator details can be hidden for blind reviews. Previous submissions are stored against their profile and using filters and bulk select, you can easily archive dupes en masse (although it doesn't tend to be too much of an issue so far with early customers). Thanks for taking a look and the feedback!
