The Delphi platform for medical consensus research and live group decision-making
Build expert consensus with real-time feedback or traditional multi-round studies.
Surveylet helps healthcare, academic, policy, and professional teams run rigorous Delphi and Real-Time Delphi studies—and use structured, anonymized feedback to support decisions during conferences, workshops, advisory boards, and leadership meetings.
From expert opinion to consensus evidence
Medical Delphi studies are often used when clinical evidence is limited, fragmented, emerging, or difficult to translate into practical guidance. Surveylet supports structured expert input, controlled feedback, multi-round review, Real-Time Delphi methods, and clear consensus reporting so research teams can move from uncertainty toward defensible, publication-ready conclusions.
Structure the evidence gap
Frame clinical uncertainty, stakeholder priorities, quality indicators, treatment standards, or research questions in a transparent Delphi process.
Engage expert panels
Collect structured ratings, comments, revisions, and feedback from clinicians, researchers, patients, policy leaders, and other stakeholders.
Report consensus clearly
Export round-by-round results for steering committees, consensus summaries, manuscripts, supplementary materials, and implementation planning.
Used in published Delphi and consensus research
Surveylet and Calibrum have been identified in peer-reviewed publications and public project records involving neonatal encephalopathy, emergency nursing, trauma research, cancer care, urinary tract infection, respiratory medicine, stillbirth, neonatal sepsis, and other health research areas. These projects show how Delphi methods can turn expert judgment into structured, citable consensus evidence.

Choose software, study support, or a live consensus session
Some teams only need the Surveylet platform. Others need help designing and running a complete Delphi study. Conferences, committees, and leadership groups may need a professionally planned live session that helps participants evaluate options, review anonymized group feedback, and move toward a documented decision during the meeting.

What kind of Delphi study are you planning?
Delphi studies are useful when evidence, expertise, and stakeholder priorities need to come together in a structured and transparent way — especially when teams need credible consensus outputs for publications, guidelines, recommendations, or program decisions.
Medical Consensus
Develop expert consensus on clinical definitions, recommendations, standards, and quality indicators.
Research Priorities
Rank gaps, questions, and priorities for future studies, funders, and research networks.
Live Consensus Sessions
Use Surveylet Real-Time Delphi to help a conference, workshop, committee, or advisory board evaluate options and make a structured decision during the meeting.
Delphi studies beyond medical research
Medical and public health projects are an important part of Surveylet’s work, but Delphi methods are also useful in non-medical settings where expert judgment, stakeholder input, forecasting, prioritization, or a fair and efficient live group decision is needed.
Education and workforce planning
Support curriculum design, competency frameworks, professional standards, training priorities, and workforce development studies.
Policy and public-sector consensus
Collect structured input from experts, agencies, communities, and stakeholders to prioritize options, risks, and implementation criteria.
Technology, strategy, and forecasting
Use Delphi methods to evaluate future scenarios, product criteria, emerging trends, organizational priorities, and strategic decisions.
Conferences and collaborative decisions
Give every participant a structured voice, reduce the influence of hierarchy or dominant speakers, and identify agreement, disagreement, and priorities within the meeting schedule.
