Official Competition Judging

Carnival results the public can trust.

JudgeIT is the secure, auditable judging system built for carnival and cultural competitions — where every score is recorded, every result is reviewed, and nothing is official until the auditor signs off.

The challenge

Manual judging invites doubt.

When scores live on paper, every close result risks a dispute — and a carnival's credibility rests on getting it right. Tallying errors, contested outcomes, and slow results all chip away at trust.

JudgeIT removes the doubt.

Scores are entered by each judge, totalled automatically with high/low exclusion, and held under lock until an independent auditor approves them. The result you publish is the result you can defend.

How it works

Four steps from stage to official result.

1

Set up

Create the competition; the rubric loads automatically. Add contestants and assign the panel.

2

Judges score

Each judge scores independently, in real time, on their own device. Panels stay anonymous.

3

Auto-tally

Totals compute instantly, with high and low scores excluded where the rules require.

4

Auditor approves

Nothing official can be exported, printed, or published until the auditor signs off.
