# Why can't I re-run AI evaluation?

> Understand the 24-hour cooldown between AI evaluation re-runs on Freshmango and how to improve your application while you wait.

The AI evaluation step has a 24-hour cooldown between re-runs. This prevents rapid resubmissions and gives you time to refine your application before trying again.

## How the cooldown works

After each AI evaluation, a timer starts. You cannot request a new evaluation until 24 hours have passed from your last attempt. The exact unlock time is typically displayed on your application page.

## What to do while waiting

Use the wait time to improve your application. Return to **Step 2 — Application Editing** and strengthen your answers. The AI rubric for the Flagship Accelerator weights these criteria:

* Problem Quality (25%)
* Solution Innovation (20%)
* Market Opportunity (20%)
* Team Strength (15%)
* Business Model Viability (10%)
* Application Quality (10%)

<Info>
  The AI does not penalize you for missing a pitch deck, not having fundraising plans, or being pre-revenue or pre-MVP. It focuses on the quality of your thinking, not your company stage.
</Info>

## If you still cannot re-run after 24 hours

Contact [**support@freshmango.ee**](mailto:support@freshmango.ee) or visit **/support/contact**. Include your account email, the timestamp of your last evaluation attempt, a screenshot of the cooldown message, and the program you applied to.
