What your agent does

Everything between you
and a signed contract.

One business profile connects your certifications, opportunities, contacts, and bids. Your agent works across all of it.

Certifications

Checks 80+ programs, prepares the applications

Brief your agent once on ownership, location, and industry. It screens every federal, state, and local certification program, ranks your strongest matches, names each gap, then assembles the document list and prepares the application answers for you to review.

Opportunities

Triages what is worth your time

Federal notices matched to your industry, with the reasons: your certifications, your location, the response window. Pass, watch, or pursue. Open a saved opportunity whenever you are ready to read its requirements.

Why it matchesWatch or pursueFederal notices
Government contacts

Finds the person behind the notice

Publicly listed contacts from federal notices, plus the people you already know. Source details, private notes, conversation history, and follow-ups stay together, linked to the opportunities you are pursuing.

Sourced contactsPrivate notesFollow-ups
Go/No-Go and bids

Tells you whether to bid, then drafts it

Paste a solicitation. Your agent reads it against your profile, certifications, and past work, scores the fit, and says why. When you say go, it builds the winning outline and drafts each section for your review.

How it works

Brief it once.
It works while you don't.

Most businesses see their first certification matches in under three minutes. The agent takes it from there and asks before anything consequential.

01

Brief your agent

Ownership, location, industry, size. Plain questions, no procurement jargon. About three minutes. Your agent turns the answers into eligibility signals across every program we track and checks your SAM.gov record against the source.

02

It prepares. You approve.

The agent picks the certifications worth pursuing, assembles the documents, prepares the application answers, and flags the disqualifiers. Every consequential step arrives as a card with the exact payload. You review, edit, and submit.

03

It keeps working

Renewals, SAM.gov status, deadlines, new notices in your NAICS codes. Your agent watches them and tells you what changed. You come back to a queue of decisions, not a pile of tabs.

Review and approve

Illustrative example. Your agent never submits forms, signs or attests to anything, sets a price, or pays a fee on your behalf. It prepares; you decide.

Coverage

80+ programs.
Local, state, and federal.

Your agent tells you which to pursue, what each is worth, and prepares the ones you choose. Local first, then state, then federal.
