Expert Research: Learn more about review matches and the awards your book can win
Book Award Pro
Awards and reviews are as unique as the books that receive them. Details like entry fee, submission deadline, announcement date, and bonus benefits vary widely across accolades. Becoming familiar with these details can help you make the best review or award decision for your book.
The Free plan from Book Award Pro provides authors with curated award and review matches that align with the unique qualities of their book. Then, authors can visit third-party websites to do their own research about the accolades their book can receive.
When you upgrade to the affordable Essentials plan, you can skip the sorting of details with our Expert Research feature: everything you need to know about your review matches and the awards your book can win in one place. The team at Book Award Pro has carefully researched, vetted, and verified each accolade for you.
