What Judgify does

Judgify is a Singapore-incorporated (Judgify Pte Ltd) cloud-based SaaS platform that automates the end-to-end lifecycle of awards, contests, academic abstract submissions, and creative competitions. The platform is organized around configurable modules covering contest planning, submissions management, judging workflows (multi-round, weighted criteria, judge groups, conflict-of-interest abstention), automated scoring and reporting, public voting, and branding/white-labeling. It supports a broad range of file formats and 27 currencies, integrates with PayPal, Stripe, WorldPay, AsiaPay, and Wirecard for payment processing, and is built on AWS infrastructure with ISO 27001, GDPR, PDPA, and PCI-DSS compliance certifications. An EU representative (EDPO) is established in Brussels to satisfy GDPR Article 27.

The company monetizes via a three-tier model: a free Basic tier for free events, monthly Professional and annual Enterprise subscriptions unlocking custom domains, collaboration, multiple judging rounds, and full white-labeling, plus a 3.5% transaction fee on paid submissions. Go-to-market is product-led through self-serve sign-up, supplemented by an enterprise sales motion for Pro and Enterprise tiers via demo booking and contact-sales forms. Customers span healthcare conferences (Asian Hospital Management Awards), logistics (UPS X-Port Challenge), government and strategic enterprises (Mubadala, UMAC), event management firms (Clarion Events), startups (GridMarkets), and non-profits (Support4Sport). Founded in 2014 and claiming 10 years of industry leadership, Judgify has no disclosed external funding and operates as a privately held, founder-controlled entity.

Broad incumbents

• Cvent: Cvent is an established enterprise event management suite with event registration, attendee management, and broader workflow capabilities that partially overlap Judgify's awards-event functionality, but is not specialized in judging/scoring.
• Smartsheet: Smartsheet is a broad work execution and collaborative form-and-workflow platform whose intake/approval features are sometimes used as an alternative for simple awards nomination programs, though it lacks dedicated judging and scoring modules.
• Bizzabo: Bizzabo provides an enterprise event experience platform covering registration, engagement, and analytics across many event types — adjacent to Judgify in awards ceremonies but lacking purpose-built judging/scoring depth.

Direct peers

• WizeHive: WizeHive delivers grants and awards management software with custom application forms, review workflows, and judging dashboards — directly competing with Judgify for foundation, nonprofit, and association awards programs.
• Award Force: Award Force is a dedicated awards program management platform offering submission management, judging, scoring, and public voting — feature-by-feature the most comparable SaaS to Judgify in the awards-judging niche.
• SurveyMonkey Apply: SurveyMonkey Apply (formerly FluidReview) is an application, award, and grant review platform with multi-stage workflows and reviewer assignment — closely mirroring Judgify's judging-and-scoring use cases, with the backing of a larger parent.
• EvalGround: EvalGround provides online judging and contest management software with scoring, anonymized reviews, and certificates — a focused direct competitor in the awards/contest platform category.
• Submittable: Submittable operates a submissions management platform for awards, grants, fellowships, and contests with reviewer assignment and scoring — addressing the same organizer segments as Judgify with comparable review and judging workflows.
• OpenWater: OpenWater provides end-to-end awards, grants, and applications management software with judging workflows, scoring, and submission portals — directly overlapping Judgify's core offering for mid-market and enterprise award programs.

Emerging players

• SlideRoom by SliderMaven: SlideRoom offers submission and review management for scholarships, admissions, and awards with form-building, file uploads, and reviewer scoring — meaningfully overlapping Judgify's submission-and-judging workflows in the education/awards segment.
