These new functionalities mainly consist of 5 additional questions that are also included in Step 2 and are highly relevant to the Step 2 Business Plan Module.
We feel this benefits applicants as evaluators already look at the key answers in Step 1 and the evaluator’s feedback can really help for Step 2.
There is an exciting feature that provides a Project Theme Overview, helping applicants understand which themes the AI tool identifies and which it flags as recent or novel.
