Reviewing multiple partner responses one at a time is time-consuming. Compare Response Decks lets you view partner proposals side by side in a single screen - so you can focus your energy on strategy, not admin.

What Is Compare Response Decks

Compare Response Decks is a feature within Brief Manager that displays multiple partner response decks in a split-screen view. Rather than opening each response individually and switching back and forth, you can browse, preview, and compare proposals from different Media Owners in one place - saving significant time in your review process.

How to Access Compare Response Decks

  • Navigate to Brief Manager and open your brief

  • Click on the Response tab

  • In the top right of the responses screen, click Compare Response Decks

You will be taken to the comparison view, where all received response decks are displayed side by side.

Navigating the Comparison View

  • Each partner's deck is displayed in its own panel, labelled with the Media Partner's name

  • Use the page navigation arrows at the bottom of each panel to scroll through individual deck pages

  • Click Full View on any panel to open that response in full screen for a closer look

  • Click Back to Responses in the top right to return to the main responses list

Tips for Getting the Most Out of It

  • Use Compare Response Decks for a quick visual scan first - get a feel for the creative approach and production quality of each response before diving into the detail

  • Follow up with the Show KPI Grid to compare responses on metrics and investment side by side

  • Use AI Analysis (Beta) alongside the comparison view to get an instant summary of how each partner's response stacks up against your brief - freeing up your time for the deeper strategic thinking

  • If a response stands out, shortlist it using the Show Shortlist feature before moving to your final decision
