Before you begin You will need a confirmed Rayyan account to create a review. If you have not signed up yet, create your account here.
Open the review creation dialog
Sign in to your Rayyan account. From the home page, click Create Review.
Note Free and Essential plans support up to 3 active reviews at a time. To create a new review, archive an existing one to free up space or upgrade your plan.
Add your review information
The review creation dialog opens at Step 1 — Add review info. Fill in the following fields:
- Review Title (required) — the name of your review
- Review Type (required) — the type of review you are conducting
- Review Domain (required) — the subject area of your research
- Description (optional) — a brief summary to help identify the review
Click Create New Review to proceed.
Best practice Choose a clear, descriptive title from the start — it makes the review easier to identify, especially if you have multiple active reviews. You can update all review details at any time from the Overview page.
Upload articles and invite members (optional)
After Step 1, the wizard continues to Step 2 (Upload Articles) and Step 3 (Invite Members). Both steps can be skipped — you do not need to upload references or invite collaborators now.
Note You can always return to add references and invite team members after the review is created. Skipping these steps now does not affect your review setup.
What you will see after creating your review
Once the review is created, you are taken to the Overview page. From here you can:
- View and edit your review information
- Add references using the Add References button
- Invite and see your review members and their roles
- Access all review tabs: Review data, Screening, Full text screening, Data extraction, and Risk of Bias
Best practice Before your team starts screening, take time to define your inclusion and exclusion criteria.
