Phoenix Copilot: your AI assistant for awards programs
Type the way you’d talk to a colleague who knows awards programs inside out. Which reviewers are behind? How does this year’s pool compare with last? Phoenix Copilot goes and looks in your live data, every record, not a sample, and comes back with the answer and a report you can keep. Ask it to build the report or draft the email, and it shows you exactly what will happen before it happens. Nothing lands until you say so.
Meet Phoenix CopilotPhoenix supports the committee rather than replacing it. Every suggestion is a person’s to accept, adjust or ignore, and your data is never used to train AI models.
How we handle AI and your dataPhoenix Agents
They read every application before a reviewer opens it, so the committee starts from a page that already makes sense. Suggestions, flags and summaries are theirs to accept, adjust or ignore.
AI agent · Summary
It reads the whole application first: who they are, what they are asking for, what stands out. The full application is one click below, so nothing is skipped.
AI agent · Anti-AI
It checks every essay and flags the ones worth a closer look, sentence by sentence. A data point for your committee, never a verdict. A person weighs it.
AI agent · Reviewer
Drawn straight from what the applicant wrote, with the reasoning shown. Reviewers accept, adjust or ignore. The score is always theirs.
Over 200 organizations run their awards programs on CommunityForce, including more than $30M in federal contract work, alongside universities, community foundations and nonprofits nationwide.

A separate database and separate file storage for each customer, not a shared one with a tenant column. How we handle security
QForms is our general-purpose sibling: no-code forms, approval workflows and generated documents for anything that collects data, moves through approvals and ends in a document.
CommunityForce is an AI-powered awards management platform for grants, scholarships, fellowships and research funding. Founded in 2010, it has processed over 165 million applications and facilitated more than $569 million in awards for federal agencies, universities and foundations.
CommunityForce manages the complete lifecycle of grants, scholarships, fellowships and research funding programs, from application collection and committee review through disbursement, post-award compliance, financial management and impact reporting.
Yes. CommunityForce is FedRAMP and SOC 2 Type II certified, and compliant with Section 508 accessibility standards, FERPA and PCI-DSS. Grant programs are supported with 2 CFR 200 Uniform Guidance requirements built in.
Most platforms stop at application collection and basic review. CommunityForce covers the full lifecycle natively: dynamic form building with conditional logic, Phoenix Agents that summarize applications, flag AI-written essays and suggest scores for reviewers, automated quantitative scoring, batch disbursements, post-award tracking, group applications, external recommender workflows, and enterprise reporting with Power BI integration.
More than 200 organizations run awards programs on CommunityForce, including federal agencies, state governments, universities, community foundations and private foundations. Past performance includes program delivery for the U.S. Air Force and Department of Defense.
One intelligence, Phoenix, runs across the platform. Phoenix Copilot answers questions about your own programs and data in plain English. Phoenix Agents work on a schedule or on demand: the Summary Agent gives reviewers a plain-language picture of each applicant, the Anti-AI Agent (powered by GPTZero) flags essays that may be AI-written as a data point rather than a verdict, and the Reviewer Agent suggests answers reviewers accept, adjust or ignore. All of it supports the committee rather than replacing it, and your data is never used to train AI models.
