A debate is an operation, not just a livestream.
DEBATES.studio is the end-to-end system behind every event — from the first invitation to the locked archive entry.
- Step 01
Invite & verify
Equal invitations are extended to every qualifying candidate. Identity, eligibility, and contactability are verified before scheduling.
- Step 02
Format & rules
Producers pick a debate format (town hall, head-to-head, panel), build segments, and publish rules to candidates and the public ahead of time.
- Step 03
Live with control
Equal-time timers, moderated audience questions, incident logs, and a green-room readiness flow keep the floor fair in real time.
- Step 04
Archive & account
Replay, transcript, AI summary, audience scorecard, and a downloadable share kit are locked to the public record after publication.
Every debate operates under a public charter, transparent rules, disclosed sponsors, and an immutable archive. Audience scoring reflects public sentiment — never an official election result.
