The Modern Alternative To Fluxx
Stop forcing your award programme into a grants-only platform. AwardScience is the AI-native award management platform that handles both awards and grants, adapts to your exact workflow, and launches in weeks—not months.
Grant-built shouldn’t mean awards-broken
Fluxx is a capable grant management platform built for foundations and nonprofits—primarily in the North American market. But if your organisation runs award programmes alongside grants, or if you operate across Asia-Pacific, Fluxx creates real friction. It wasn’t designed for multi-round judging, ceremony management, or APAC compliance. Administrators end up building workarounds for features Fluxx simply doesn’t have, and judges are stuck reading raw PDFs in a portal that wasn’t built with them in mind.
Enter AwardScience. Built for awards and grants. Powered by AI.
We built AwardScience from the ground up as an AI-native, no-code platform for organisations that run both awards and grants. AwardScience adapts to you—using AI to set up workflows, summarise applications, manage conflicts of interest, and give your judges a frictionless experience that makes them want to come back next cycle.

Why Programme Managers are switching to AwardScience?
A platform that runs awards and grants without compromise
Fluxx was designed for grant management. AwardScience was designed for both. Whether you’re running a foundation grant programme, a corporate excellence award, a scholarship intake, or all three simultaneously—AwardScience handles the full lifecycle in one platform. Public submissions, eligibility checking, multi-round judging, conflict-of-interest management, ceremony tools, winner galleries, and grant disbursement tracking. No workarounds, no separate tools, no lost data between systems.
Give your judges back 40% of their time
The biggest bottleneck in any award cycle is judge fatigue. Instead of forcing your panel to read raw PDFs in a clunky portal, AwardScience uses AI to automatically generate clean, unbiased executive summaries of every application. Your judges focus on making better decisions—not processing paperwork. Built-in conflict-of-interest declarations, blind review controls, and recusal management keep your process defensible and auditable from first submission to final decision. Fluxx has no equivalent judging experience.
Know exactly what you will pay before you talk to sales.
Fluxx pricing is quote-only. By the time you have a number, you’ve already invested hours in a sales process and are emotionally committed to the relationship. AwardScience publishes transparent pricing—Essentials from $149/month, Professional from $499/month—so you can build your business case, get budget approval, and compare options without a single sales call. For organisations running award and grant programmes on a defined budget, that transparency is not a small thing.
