The Radar watches public sources and your own bid invitations overnight, matches every new bid to what you sell and where you work, and explains its fit score in eight parts. Bids you cannot bid are screened out, never hidden.

Fit is a screening signal. Unknown never reads as eligible.PassMaybeBid
Sample BotBid screen: Radar. Fictional companies, people and figures.
What it does
Radar at a glance.
Watch lists in your words
Services, codes, states and buyers you care about. Industry starter kits fill in the words your trade uses.
A fit score you can argue with
Eight parts, each with points and a reason. “Improve this score” shows which company fact would add points.
Must-pass screening
Five can-you-bid checks. Unknown never blocks a bid and never reads as eligible.
Your email invites, too
Bid alerts that land in your bid mailboxes become a private list, matched like everything else.
Decide in minutes
Every point, explained.
Open any bid to see the facts (buyer, deadline in your time and theirs, value, place, kind), the verdict, why it fits and whether you can bid. Choose Bid, Maybe or Pass, with a reason your team can see.
Bid, Maybe or PassDecisions are recorded with a reason. Undo is one click.
The Passed tab explains itselfA summary of why you pass, so the next watch list is sharper.

Every agency has its own bid portal. And every portal wants an account. BotBid signs you up, verifies the email, and keeps every login in one place. You stop drowning in portals.
Questions about the Radar
Where do the bids come from?
From public bid sources BotBid watches nightly (federal, state, county, city, school and cooperative listings) and from bid invitations that reach your own bid mailboxes.
Does a high fit score mean we qualify?
No. Fit is a screening signal. The can-you-bid checks show what is met, missing or unknown, and the solicitation always governs.
Can we search old or closed bids?
Yes. Filters include closed bids, and award history feeds the Advisor and pricing research.
How many bids can we track?
Watch lists, coverage and active plans are set per plan. We size them with you during onboarding.
See BotBid on a full sample workspace: the Radar, a live bid plan, Ask BB, the bid writer and pre-flight. We will tailor the walkthrough to what you sell and who you sell it to.
