What you can do

Everything you'd ask a really smart analyst

Ask Claude anything about your submissions, applicants, revenue, and performance. Get back clear, specific answers with recommendations.

Revenue Prediction

Forecast entry fee income based on historical submission rates, deadlines, and programme trends. Know what to expect before the deadline hits.

"Based on current submission pace, what's my projected revenue for the Spring Open Call?"

Geographic Spread

Understand where your applicants are coming from. Identify emerging markets, track regional trends, and make informed decisions about outreach and deadlines.

"Which countries are submitting the most this year compared to last?"

Conversion Rates

Find out which of your open calls converts page visitors into actual submissions. Identify what's working — and what isn't — across all your programmes.

"Which project has the highest form completion rate and what did I do differently?"

Judging & Review Analysis

Understand scoring patterns across your review panels. Spot inconsistencies, identify top-performing judges, and surface submissions that deserve a second look.

"Are any judges scoring significantly higher or lower than the group average?"

Deadline Optimisation

Analyse when your submissions typically spike. Find out whether extensions drive real uplift, and plan your future deadline strategy with data behind it.

"Did the deadline extension on our last award actually increase submissions?"

Applicant Retention

Track whether creators are returning to submit again. Understand the lifecycle of your applicant community and find opportunities to re-engage past participants.

"How many applicants from last year's competition have submitted again this year?"

Communication Drafting

Ask Claude to draft decision emails, acceptance letters, or rejection messages — personalised, on-brand, and ready to send in bulk through Dapple.

"Draft a warm rejection email for our shortlisted applicants who didn't make the final."

Programme Health Check

Get an instant summary of how any programme is performing across all your key metrics — and receive proactive suggestions for what to improve before the next round.

"Give me a full health check on the Winter Residency programme."

Competitive Benchmarking

Compare programmes side by side. Understand which formats, fee structures, and timelines are producing your best results — so you can double down on what works.

"Which of my competitions generated the best submissions-per-marketing-effort ratio?"

Here's how to use Claude to ask questions about submissions, revenue, performance and trends.

Real questions. Real answers.

What will you ask first?

Here are some of the most useful questions Dapple users are already asking Claude — and what they get back.

"How is my Photography Award performing compared to the same point last year?"
↑ 34% more submissions than at this stage last year, driven primarily by a 2× increase from Instagram referrals. Deadline is in 12 days — based on last year's pattern, expect 60% of total submissions to arrive in the final 72 hours.
"What's the average quality score across my judging panels this round?"
Average panel score is 6.8/10. Panel B is scoring 1.4 points higher on average — worth checking whether scoring criteria were interpreted differently. 12 submissions scored 9+ across all panels; these are your likely shortlist.
"Project my entry fee revenue if submissions hit 500 by close of call."
At £15 per entry and your current 92% payment completion rate, 500 submissions = £6,900. Your platform fee at that volume would be ~£198. Net: approximately £6,702. You're currently at 312 submissions with 8 days remaining.
"Analyse my submission sources and tell me which of my social media channels are performing the best."
So far you've received 496 submissions. Instagram is your strongest performer by a significant margin - 218 submissions (44%). Facebook is a solid second, suggesting your audience skews toward established platforms - 142 submissions (29%). Want a full breakdown report?
