Intelligent Language Programming Excellence
… or ILPEx for short. Recognizing industry excellence in NLP and related AI
AI awards
What is ILPEx?
ILPEx was created to recognise the best software companies helping businesses commercialize AI, especially natural language processing and adjacent technologies.
Promoting enterprise
Elevating access to AI
Recognising excellence
Why we exist
We believe that AI has the power to transform commerce and, by extension, society at large. But AI poses risks to businesses. The tech giants hold a lot of power and could monopolise entire niches if left unchecked. But unchecked they are. It’s down to businesses and private organisations to shine a light on smaller businesses using the power of AI to better serve their audience. ILPEx wants to be a part of this movement.

Why should I apply?
The AI space is fast-moving and competitive. Consumers and businesses are faced with dozens of options for how they automate, systemize, productize, and more. Why should they choose you? ILPEx recognition is your way of showing that your business has been reviewed by industry specialists who believe you’re on to something.
You’re not here to make a fast buck. You’re not about to get swallowed up by the AI giants. You’re here to stay and you mean business. You’ll also get a listing on our site and a link to your tool or businesses to help customers find you. Yes, there is an application fee, but it’s 100% refundable if you’re unsuccessful.
