Set-asides you qualify for

Tick your certifications and we hide set-aside notices reserved for others. Every result shows its set-aside, NAICS code, place of performance and response deadline.

Plain-English summaries

On notices with enough text, get an AI summary of what's being bought, who can respond, key requirements and how to submit. It's labelled as AI, and numbers it can't find in the notice are removed.

Straight to the source

Every result links to the official notice on SAM.gov, NYC City Record or LA's RAMP. Add deadlines to your calendar or export a spreadsheet.

What it covers, and what it doesn't

  • Covers: open federal contract opportunities (solicitations, combined synopsis/solicitations, presolicitations, sources sought and special notices) from SAM.gov's public Contract Opportunities data extract, refreshed daily, plus open solicitations from New York City's City Record and the City of Los Angeles RAMP portal, refreshed every few hours.
  • Doesn't cover: most state, county, school-district and other city bids; awarded contracts; subcontracting opportunities; and attachments (drawings, statements of work), which you'll find on the official notice. It doesn't decide whether you qualify, prepare bids or submit them.
  • Place of performance: about two-thirds of federal notices don't list one. When you pick a state, those are included unless you tick "Only notices that list this state".
  • Watch for scams: registering on SAM.gov is free. Be wary of anyone who charges to "register" you or promises contracts (GSA consumer alerts).

Questions

Where does the data come from?

Federal notices come from the Contract Opportunities data extract that the U.S. General Services Administration publishes daily from SAM.gov. City bids come from New York City's City Record Online and the City of Los Angeles RAMP open-bids dataset, both published as open data. See data sources & licences. Always confirm details on the official notice.

How fresh is it?

SAM.gov publishes the extract once a day; we load it within about an hour of publication, so a notice posted today may appear tomorrow. City feeds are refreshed every three hours. The time of the last update is shown with each search.

Are the AI summaries accurate?

They're a reading aid, not a substitute for the notice. Summaries come only from the notice text we have (not attachments), and any number or date the summary contains that doesn't appear in the notice is removed. They can still be wrong or incomplete, so read the full notice before you bid.

Do I need to register to bid on federal contracts?

Usually yes. Federal awards generally require an active SAM.gov registration with a Unique Entity ID, which is free. How to bid on government contracts.

Is it free?

Yes. Searching is free with a daily fair-use limit, and you get 15 AI summaries a day. Bid alerts are in early access and free to join.
