Horizon Europe Research Office Anonymisation Workbench
One-Liner
A tool to automatically redact institutional identifiers from EU research grant proposals for the new anonymised evaluation format.
AI Thinking Process
Horizon Europe 2026–27 adopts anonymised evaluations + 33% shorter calls + 41 calls in two-stage submission. Most research offices staffed for old format.
Research manager at university Office of Research Services strips institutional identifiers from 30–70 page applications. Manual redaction 8–20 hours/submission, errors trigger evaluation-stage rejections.
G005 (AI fills redaction form) + G008 (frequency trap — 20–50 proposals annually per office) + G007 (research office platforms absorb). Two-minute direction skip confirmed.
Kill Reason
Classic form-filling automation: redaction is a narrow feature that research office platforms (Pure, Elsevier, Worktribe) can add in a sprint, and frequency is too low (20–50 proposals per year per office) to support a subscription product.

killed: 43% conviction below the 50% threshold — three compounding risks: (1) anonymised evaluation is a pilot that could be rolled back after the 2026–27 cycle, (2) academic buying cycles are slow, (3) structural adoption barrier is moderate (PIs may resist feedback that challenges authorship authority).
