A reasoning agent for award travel

Fly further on the miles you already have.

Ask in plain English. AwardBrain hunts award space across 25+ programs, does your transfer math, and answers like a points-nerd friend would: “Book Flying Blue — 60,000 miles, not the usual 80,500.” Then it shows its work.

These are our own bookings, and the cash comparison is the fare quoted for the same cabin and dates at the time of booking. Award space and pricing change constantly — your results will differ, and every AwardBrain answer tells you how fresh its data is so you can verify before you book.

How it works

Not a search box. A travel brain.

The difference between “here are 40 rows” and “book this one, here's why.”

It reasons, not just searches

Ask like you'd ask a points-nerd friend. It expands regions to the right gateways, respects your cabin, and leads with a recommendation — not 40 rows.

Knows the sweet spots

A curated knowledge base of the best redemptions aims every search before it spends one, so you see the 60k business seat — not the 140k one.

Your miles, your math

Save balances and transferable points once. Every answer factors real transfer ratios — and warns before any irreversible transfer.

Miles sales, tracked daily

A daily briefing of buy-miles bonuses, hotel point sales, and transfer bonuses — with an honest verdict on whether each is actually worth buying.

Nightly award alerts

Watching a route? Pro checks it every night and emails you the moment award space appears — before it's gone.

A watchlist that remembers

Star any option into your Saved list — boarding-pass cards with points, taxes, aircraft, and value-per-point, ready when you're ready to book.

Free guide

Questions, answered

How current is the award availability?

Availability data refreshes continuously through the day, and every answer shows how fresh its data is. Award space moves fast, so always verify on the airline's site before transferring points or booking.

Which programs does it cover?

25+ airline mileage programs across Star Alliance, oneworld, SkyTeam and major non-aligned carriers — Aeroplan, United, Avios (BA/Qatar/Finnair), Flying Blue, Alaska Atmos, AAdvantage, Virgin Atlantic, LifeMiles-bookable partners and more — plus the transfer paths from Amex, Chase, Capital One, Citi and Bilt.

What do I get for free?

Enough to plan a real trip: 15 AI questions a month, the full award search, the sweet-spot knowledge base, the daily miles-sale briefing, and your balances with transfer math. Pro removes the cap and adds nightly award alerts.

How does billing work?

Pro is $12.99/month or $129/year (two months free), handled by Stripe. Cancel anytime from the billing portal — no emails, no phone calls.

Can I earn by sharing AwardBrain?

Yes — every account gets a referral link. You earn 30% of every payment your referrals make for their first 12 months, and they get 20% off their first payment.

Are the guides really free?

Yes — both of them, in full. Give us an email and every chapter of both guides unlocks. No card, no trial, no upsell wall halfway through.

Where do the receipts come from?

They're our own bookings, and the screenshots are unedited. The cash figure beside each is the fare quoted for the same cabin and dates at the time we booked. Award pricing moves constantly, so treat them as proof the method works — not as a quote.
