The record

Purpose: ReviQ is a locally deployed workbench for systematic and multivocal literature reviews.
Review workflow: It guides reviews through eight phases, from project setup and import to results.
Screening: Title and abstract screening supports Include, Exclude, and Uncertain decisions, per-criterion rationale, conflict detection, Cohen’s κ with 95% CI, and PABAK.
Review capacity: A project setup supports up to five reviewers.
Results and exports: Results include a PRISMA 2020 flow diagram, publication charts, venue and taxonomy summaries, a PDF protocol report, BibTeX exports, and a replication package.
Collaboration: Reviewers can exchange decisions as JSON files, and share grey-literature corpora through an interchange package.
Integrations: Grey-literature retrieval can use SearchApi.io-backed search engines or arXiv’s API, and uses ScrapingBee to fetch and archive sources.
Deployment and storage: ReviQ runs in Docker and stores its data in a Docker volume on the user's machine.
Security limitation: ReviQ has no authentication; the README warns that anyone able to reach its ports can read projects and resolve conflicts.
Retrieval costs: Grey-literature retrieval spends third-party API credits billed to the user, and the tool has no budget ceiling.
License: The repository identifies the software as GNU General Public License v3.
Intended users: The README describes ReviQ for researchers conducting systematic or multivocal literature reviews.
Screening statistics: Screening includes automatic conflict detection, Cohen’s κ with a 95% confidence interval, and PABAK.
Deployment and data: ReviQ runs in Docker, stores data in a local Docker volume, and binds its ports to loopback by default.
