MeetingHand Abstract Management
MeetingHand Abstract Management · Wilmington, Delaware, USA
What it is
MeetingHand Abstract Management helps academic event organizers collect, review, schedule, and publish submissions. Organizers can configure forms with topics, presentation types, rules, deadlines, and author fields, and accept text, file, or multimedia uploads. Review tools support reviewer assignments, scores, comments, progress dashboards, and blind peer review. Authors can edit submissions before the deadline when organizers allow it. Accepted abstracts can be arranged in a multi-track agenda and exported as a book of abstracts. Organizers can connect submission with conference registration through single sign-on and can require payment. The service runs on the web, and MeetingHand says it is designed for conferences with hundreds or thousands of submissions. Pricing depends on registrations or abstracts collected: the free plan covers up to 25, and the Small plan covers 250. Pay as you go is $4.90 a month, charged according to collected registrations and abstracts; Small is $990 a month as a prepaid plan. Human support and a knowledge center are available.
