What we’re building next
| Question | Coming in | |
|---|---|---|
| "Which open solicitations can my company actually bid on right now?" | Opportunities — live SAM.gov search (Basic, in development) | |
| "What did the government pay last time, who holds the contract, and when does it expire?" | Award Intel — primes, incumbents, recompete (Pro, in development) |
Opportunity Search BASIC TIER
Every open federal notice we ingest from SAM.gov — solicitations, combined synopsis, pre-solicitations, sources sought and special notices — filtered by keyword, NAICS, PSC, agency, set-aside, notice type, place of performance and closing date. Federal SAM ingest only; SLED and vehicle-restricted portals are linked from this page (not ingested). Your veteran profile drives an explainable fit score on each card. Pro members get one-click award history and document search.
Pre-RFP: filter notice type to Sources Sought / Presolicitation, or open agency forecasts (manual PDFs — ingest TBD):
Beyond federal SAM (not ingested here — open the source portals; login often required):
Search inside extracted SOW / PWS / RFP text
Paste-to-shred (works offline)
Paste SOW/PWS text to extract shall/must/will/should lines locally — no Railway extract needed. Corpus FTS above still needs the worker pass.
Award Intel PRO TIER
What agencies actually paid, who holds the work today, and which contracts expire soon — read row by row out of the prime-contract awards we ingest from USAspending. Every figure on this page is a record in that table. Where the table has nothing for your NAICS, this page tells you that instead of filling the space.

We’re shipping Opportunity search, Award Intel, alerts, and doc intel in the open; see the feature board for what’s live vs coming.
