The AI-Powered Alternative to Evalato
Evalato is great for collecting applications, but it leaves your judges doing all the heavy lifting. AwardScience is the AI-native evaluation platform that automates complex routing, summarizes long narratives, and saves your review panel hundreds of hours.
Collecting applications is only half the battle
Evalato provides a clean way to collect forms and entry fees. But what happens after the submission deadline? Your admins are still left manually assigning reviewers, and your expert judges are still forced to read through hundreds of pages of raw PDFs. You’ve modernized your forms, but your evaluation process is still stuck in the past.
Enter AwardScience. Built for intelligence, not just intake
We built AwardScience because managing awards shouldn’t stop at the submit button. As an AI-native platform, AwardScience takes over where tools like Evalato leave off. We give you infinite, drag-and-drop control over the most complex review pipelines, and our AI automatically generates unbiased summaries to eliminate judge fatigue.

Why modern programs are upgrading to AwardScience
Don’t let judge fatigue ruin your awards
Evalato gives judges a clean portal to log into, but they still have to read every single word manually. AwardScience respects your experts’ time. Our built-in AI instantly analyzes long-form submissions and generates clear, unbiased executive summaries. Judges get the critical insights they need instantly, allowing them to score faster and more accurately.
Workflows that adapt to your reality
When your grant or award program scales, standard review phases aren’t enough. If you need conditional routing—like sending applications over $50k to a financial audit committee, and applications under $50k to regional judges—legacy tools struggle. AwardScience’s visual workflow builder lets you map out exact, multi-layered, conditional processes in minutes.
Let AI build your program
While Evalato requires you to manually build out your workspaces and forms, AwardScience is AI-native from day one. Tell AwardScience what kind of award you are running, and our intelligent builder will generate your forms, rubrics, and scoring criteria for you. You just tweak, approve, and launch.
