Stop the manual madness that’s stealing your time
You know the drill: copying entries from emails into spreadsheets, creating individual PDFs for judges, then manually calculating scores while praying your formulas are right. All while answering “how do I submit?” emails at midnight.
Zealous puts your entire competition on autopilot. Every submission, every judge’s score, every participant update – organized, automated, and actually working when deadlines hit.
Your competition deserves better than cobbled- together systems
When participants are asked to email files or be sent through clunky systems they will question if entering is worth their time.
With Zealous, participants experience the same smooth interface they expect from modern platforms. Professional presentation that matches your competition’s prestige – no apologetic “sorry about our system” emails needed.

Finally, judges who love scoring entries
Forget chasing judges for weeks or sending them confusing spreadsheets. No more “I can’t open this file” or “which category was I judging again?” messages.
Judges score from any device, anywhere – even their phone during commutes. Watch progress in real-time. See scores update instantly. Everything they need in one intuitive interface.
“Judges found scoring on Zealous very straightforward with no explaining or support required.”
– Akua Obeng-Frimpong, Cambridge City Council
When your competition grows from 300 to 3,000 entries
Success shouldn’t trigger panic. Yet most organizers dread growth – will the system crash? Can we afford more judges? How will we manage the volume?
With Zealous, handle thousands of entries as easily as hundreds. Add categories on the fly. Bring in more judges instantly. No developer fees, no infrastructure worries, no “we weren’t expecting this many” apologies.
We received our highest number of submissions – an increase of 22%!
