Find anything
One search across tenders, awards, projects, and canonical organizations. Click any result to open it.
Lifecycle
Where we are, end to end
A project is not a tender. The system tracks distinct entities across the lifecycle and links them where a real identifier exists. Every count below is live from the canonical database.
Data truth
What the numbers actually mean
The headline counts, told honestly. A tender is not always an open bid, a contract ceiling is not spend, and two spellings of a buyer are one organization.
Tenders, by what they actually are
Award value, by measure
Obligated (US) and contract value (CA) are different things in different currencies. We never add them into one number.

Ask govtender anything
Plain-English questions over the whole database, answered on your free-first LLM chain. The AI reads real records and cites them. It never invents.
Ingestion
Source health
Official federal sources only. The license gate keeps unverified sources dark; a failed run is recorded and isolated, never silently dropped.
Coverage by country
Inferred project sectors
Explainable rules over NAICS / PSC / UNSPSC + keywords. Every inference stores its rule version, evidence, and confidence.
Analytics
The data, in aggregate
Trends over time, value distribution, and who buys and wins the most. Toggle tenders vs awards.
Explore
Every record, with its source
Search and filter the canonical records. Click any row to see its full provenance: the source, record id, content hash, parser version, and licence behind every field.
Organizations
Buyers & suppliers, resolved
Duplicate names folded into one canonical entity so counts and values are not fragmented. Click any organization for its full buyer and supplier profile.

Data health
How much to trust this, field by field
No more "100% complete." Real presence, semantic validity, freshness, and coverage, plus every anomaly we flagged instead of hiding.

Coverage gaps, stated explicitly
- CanadaBuys bulk data is federal only (no provincial or municipal notices).
- SAM.gov uses a personal-key daily quota; a run that hits HTTP 429 backs off, records the failure, and continues.
- Grants, permits, and project maps are tracked as their own entity types, never as tenders.
- Org resolution auto-merges only strong matches; weaker matches wait in the review queue below and never change displayed numbers.
- This system never claims complete U.S.–Canada coverage.
