Flat, honest, no surprises.
No tiers named after metals, no “contact sales.” Vendors pay a small membership for the full index. Buyers pay per sealed bid. That's the whole model.
No account? No problem — your first 5 bids each day are free to open, straight from the site. Pro unlocks the full aggregated index — every US federal, state and local bid — and the matching that finds your work for you. It starts with 7 days free. Exactly what each gets is in the table below.
- Every aggregated bid — federal, state, and local — the moment we index it
- Radar: smart matching against your capability profile, tuned by your feedback
- The Daily Brief: your matches emailed every morning
- Saved-bid pipeline board, deadline calendar, and alerts
- Bring your team: add teammate seats for just $5/seat per month
Cancel anytime — one click, no email-us-to-cancel nonsense.
Everything included — no add-ons, no subscription, no per-vendor fees. Or advertise a bid for free and link vendors to your own portal.
- Encrypted bid collection — sealed until your deadline, unreadable even to us
- Matched-vendor distribution the moment your posting goes live
- Q&A with a cone of silence, addenda, and deadline reminders
- One-click opening, recomputed tabulation, and evaluator scoring
- Hash-chained audit record you can export for your files
Advertisement listings are free — pay only when you run a sealed bid.
Free vs Pro, plainly
Everything on BiddingSimple-hosted bids is free. Pro is only about the full aggregated index and the matching on top of it.
