Before buying a product, patronizing a restaurant, going to the movies or purchasing a new car, we often scan the internet for a rating. Using rating systems is how we make informed decisions. With today’s rating systems based primarily on five stars, a scale of 1 – 10, thumbs-up/ thumbs-down, etc., this method of rating is inferior because there is no standard platform. Averaging multiple people’s scores, to gauge a more accurate decision, is meaningless because each individual has based their opinion on their own internal barometer.
Developed in the early 80’s by academia, a rubric is the only scientific model for quantifying subjective feedback. LitCentral Inc. ™ has refined and expanded the rubric methodology and patented its use with regard to documents.
A user of the LitCentral application can not only analyze a document as it is being read, but the feedback and opinions of the user is quantified and turned into a numeric value – thus reducing the subjectivity. When feedback is turned into a numeric value, multiple opinions can be merged, displaying a better indication of the value of the material.
From manuscript to book, from script to screen, legislation to law, or medication to wellness – quantified opinions offer a numeric value in which one can base a decision. LitCentral is currently establishing strategic partnerships in all four industries. Contact us for partnering opportunities and patent licensing information.
