Valid Eval is an online evaluation system for organizations that make and defend tough decisions. It provides insight into the decision-making process, illuminating the details of evaluator assessments while reducing subjectivity and minimizing bias. Valid Eval surfaces and organizes the normally hidden criteria used in complex evaluations, which increases evaluator accountability and confidence in outcomes. It’s based on widely accepted principals of cognitive and behavioral science, and uses purpose-built rubrics — performance standards and scoring criteria — developed in consultation with experts in the field. Valid Eval synthesizes and contextualizes diverse responses from evaluators who have relevant expertise, providing clear, concise, credible feedback that people can easily prioritize and act upon. Valid Eval was built from the ground up by people who intimately understand the challenges faced by those responsible for allocating scarce resources. As a team, we’re committed to making sure you have evidence of the right outcome, every time. We are engineers, learning scientists, designers and software developers who partner with government agencies, universities, nonprofits and others who help accelerate the economy. Find out how Valid Eval can help you maximize the transparency, fairness and efficacy of your program.

We reached a major milestone in our history of improving federal acquisitions. As of today, we have managed the evaluation of 12,697 government program proposals without a single sustained protest. 🎉🚀 "Small and nontraditional businesses are critical to revolutionizing Army technology so that our Soldiers have the most advanced capabilities on the battlefield. Being able to efficiently award nondilutive capital and speed the process of transition and fielding is key to giving our military the decisive edge," said Matthew Willis, Ph.D., director of Army Prize Competitions and the Army SBIR|STTR Program. "The fact that we have a reliable, defensible and transparent platform to streamline evaluations means that we can advance Army critical priorities while providing a beneficial experience to companies who want to contribute to the mission."
Creating better experiences for users, judges, administrators, and applicants for federal and defense agencies is our greatest accomplishment. We’re building fair, trustworthy processes for greater transparency and accountability across the public sector. We’re grateful for the enduring opportunities to support amazing programs from $4B per year to small awards for internal teams. Each is incredibly important to our clients and to Valid Eval.
This is the way! We are proud to support the evaluation workflows behind the scenes here.
