While I'd apreciate a little fresh air in the process as well... > an app that you submit papers to, which then anonymizes them, standardizes formatting and presents them to randomly selected experts for review in a certain time period Except for that it's not an app (that would be kind of pointless, why would I want that on a phone instead of a webapp), that's pretty much the standard in my field. Anonymization is done through the authors (if the conference/journal wants it to be) and ensured by the conference submission system. Formatting is standardized anyway. The problem is the "randomly selected experts" part, for many (most?) subfields suitable reviewers are a scarce resource, to the point that in quite a few double-blind processes I've seen one or both parties could recognize each other's work or review. I've always found openreview [1] a nice way to at least make the process public, especially when anonymity is an illusion anyway. https://openreview.net/ https://openreview.net/
