Subject Matter Experts

We help subject matter experts share their knowledge.

As professionals who are recognized authorities in their fields of study, subject matter experts have a wealth of knowledge to share with others, particularly entrepreneurs or businesses pursuing the development of a new idea. Embarking on this type of a venture is not often without a significant amount of risk for small companies, and expert feedback early in the development process can help make the difference between a successful outcome and a disappointing misuse of resources.

Lytmos serves as a conduit between subject matter experts and those entrepreneurs or businesses developing new ideas. By assembling a network of subject matter experts from a broad spectrum of professions, Lytmos has created an efficient way for experts to evaluate ideas submitted by our customers--ideas presented in federal grant proposals, business plans, and inventions. We classify our subject matter experts as reviewers, since the nature of their work is reviewing the merits of our customers’ ideas.

Our reviewers have a significant responsibility: to provide honest, constructive feedback that is not only substantiated, but also respectful to the customer who submitted the idea. This type of feedback is the most helpful for our customers, who need assistance identifying both the strengths and weaknesses in their ideas so effective improvements can be made.

However, the subject matter expert also gains from the experience of serving as a Lytmos reviewer. As a reviewer, subject matter experts are be able to:

• Feel satisfied knowing that their feedback will help a small business or entrepreneur develop an idea to its full potential
• Stay abreast of current research projects in their field of study
• Compare their feedback with that of their peers with whom they sit on a review panel
• Earn quick financial compensation
