CanadaBuys, BC Bid, MERX, or any municipal portal. We read the notice for you. No signup needed for your first brief.
Go, maybe, or no-go, with the reasons cited. You also get a mandatory-requirements checklist, missing documents flagged, suggested next steps, and a compliance matrix CSV your team can use today.
Three minutes of guided Q&A captures what you do, where you serve, your project-size sweet spot, certifications, and clearances. From then on, every brief is scored against your firm, and you can save tenders to your watch list.
A verdict, a compliance matrix, and a missing-doc checklist. Real artifacts your team can use today.
Every mandatory requirement, missing document, and next step as a row in a CSV, with owner, due date, and evidence columns ready to fill. Avoid spending hours on a bid you cannot qualify for.
Each mandatory requirement found in the notice, mapped to your profile: have, partial, missing, or unknown. Findings include source references. Missing or unclear information is flagged for review.
Color-coded and confidence-rated, with the top 2 to 5 reasons quoting the notice text. When no mandatory requirement can be confirmed from the notice, the verdict is capped at maybe and eligibility is flagged as unverified.
The solicitation files, certificates, and forms you still need, plus concrete actions to take before you commit estimating hours.
Risks like addenda, site visits, bonding, or tight schedules, called out separately when the notice mentions them.

No, and we won't. Qualification is our wedge. We tell you whether to bid, what's missing, and what to ask the buyer. For drafting, we recommend specialist proposal tools or a bid writer. We hand them a clean compliance matrix.
For pasted URLs: CanadaBuys, BC Bid, MERX, and most municipal portals — hand-tuned extractors for the major sources, an LLM-based fallback for the rest.
Yes. We're Canada-first by design. We handle NAICS and GSIN codes, COR safety certifications, Reliability/Secret/Top Secret clearances, EN/FR bilingual requirements, PSIB Indigenous-business set-asides, and the relevant trade agreements (CETA, CFTA, CPTPP).
Findings include source references. Missing or unclear information is flagged for review. Briefs are based on the notice page, not the full solicitation documents, so confirm mandatory requirements in the full package before bidding. We bias toward "maybe" over "go" because a false-positive go costs you days of wasted effort.
Paste any URL. Our fallback extractor handles unknown portals (City of Toronto, City of Calgary, broader-public-sector buyer pages). The brief will show medium confidence rather than high, and flag any fields it couldn't parse.
Your company profile lives in your account only and is never shared with other users. Tender notices we read are public documents. Briefs you generate are private to your account unless you choose to share. We never sell or share user data.
