AlxRX delivers energy and pre-workout drinks in a patented dual-chamber pouch that keeps powder and water apart until pressed, so the drink mixes exactly at the moment of use with no bottle and no cleanup. AlxRX sells to athletes, soldiers, and first responders, who carry the pouch in a gym bag or ruck and drink it on the spot, keeping their bottles and hydration bladders water-only. AlxRX launched in May 2026, selling direct-to-consumer at live UFC events and gym launches, and has undertaken four military field tests, with one bulk order to a military facility.

Business Up Hub launched BidCraft Tile, software that turns a tile contractor’s project estimate into a priced, signable proposal in minutes rather than hours. Then Biddy, their AI foreman, helps manage the full project from start to finish. Tile contractors and bathroom remodelers can bid on-site instead of rebuilding spreadsheets at 9 p.m. Business Up Hub has reached $302,718 in lifetime revenue with no outside capital.
