@Ritae i just got my 7th edit aswell 
same assesor is checking our application.
Today we are getting a response hopefully.
Have you got decision as I’ve also applied on same date?
I just got my fourth edit today since I applied
Which means we can expect it either today or tomorrow.
I don’t see how you checking on the edits helps your application. Going by the logic around the number of edits as suggested by other applicants, if you have several edits, it means it is not looking good.

Do I need to send my documents to UKVI via email as mentioned in the visa application login, or is it sufficient to upload them on the Tech Nation portal?
What are the next steps I need to complete in the visa application form?
still very hopeful though

Hello 
I got rejected for the Exceptional promise
This was the response
Assessment panel feedback:
The applicant applied under the Exceptional Promise visa route, selecting optional criteria 2 and 3.
The applicant meets the requirements of the mandatory criteria. The applicant provides relevant letters of recommendation that highlight specifics of their work. The applicant has appeared in panels at relevant conferences in the sector and shows they have been invited to take part in the Devs of Colour showcase at an expo. The application demonstrates emerging national recognition and the potential to be a leader in digital technology.
The applicant does not meet the requirements of optional criteria 2. In the mandatory criteria we followed the link to the video of the applicant’s conference talk because video cannot be uploaded to the application and so must be externally held.
The remainder of the application relies on external links to the applicant’s google drive. We cannot reference evidence held by the applicant as it can be changed after assessment and only use links to verify the contents of evidence which is readable and uploaded to the application.
As such the documents relating to this criteria are additional personal statements with embedded screenshots which do not sufficiently support the claims made, or letters written specifically in support of the application again without evidence to support claims.
There is no evidence that the applicant has been recognised for advancing the sector of digital technology outside of their employment.
The applicant does not meet the requirements of optional criteria 3 for the same reason. There is evidence of the applicant’s work, but not evidence to support the claims of impact. The claims of impact are also vague, such as ‘had a very big part to play in the development’.
This is not a level of impact that can be measured or demonstrated as significant on the company itself.
Overall the applicant has met the requirements of the mandatory only. We do not endorse this application.
