Use when reasoning about how an ACM FAccT submission is evaluated — mutually-anonymous review by a mixed CS+law+social-science pool matched via author-selected focus areas, Area Chairs, the short factual-correction rebuttal, the new Accept/Revise/Reject decision with a revise-and-resubmit round, and how FAccT's interdisciplinary process differs from a pure-ML conference's single-shot rebuttal.

# FAccT Review Process

Model the pipeline before interpreting any single review. FAccT's process has two features that
surprise authors arriving from a pure-ML venue: the reviewer pool is **interdisciplinary** (a
computer scientist, a lawyer, and a social scientist may all be assigned), and — new for the 2026
edition — the decision set is **Accept / Revise / Reject**, where **Revise** is a genuine
revise-and-resubmit round, not a soft reject. Your paper is matched to reviewers and **Area Chairs**
by the **focus areas** you selected at registration, so those choices shape who reads you as much as
your title does.

## Process model

- Submission and review run on **OpenReview** (new for 2026) with **mutual anonymity**: authors and
  reviewers are hidden from each other.
