Reviews and Scorecards
Choose between manual reviews and MEGAN video reviews
Understand which review workflow to use based on the lesson, plan, video availability, and trainer goals.

Manual reviews and MEGAN video reviews both support trainer feedback, scorecards, and progress workflows, but they are meant for different situations.
Manual reviews are trainer-written and do not require a video. MEGAN reviews start from lesson video and provide draft AI-assisted analysis that trainers review before publishing.
Use a manual review when
- The barn is on Starter or above and does not need video for this lesson.
- The trainer wants to record structured notes quickly after a lesson.
- The review is based on in-person coaching notes rather than video moments.
- The lesson video is unavailable, unclear, or not appropriate to use.
Use a MEGAN video review when
- The barn is on Standard or Premium.
- A lesson video is available and uploaded through the video workflow.
- The trainer wants moment-based feedback, score suggestions, and video context.
- Rider tags are correct and the video can be processed before review.
What stays the same
- The trainer controls the final feedback.
- Student and parent summaries should be reviewed before publishing.
- Scorecards can contribute to progress trends when snapshots are created.
- Sensitive trainer notes should not be placed in rider-visible fields.
