For small & mid-sized federal contractors

Find federal contracts you can actually win

An AI opportunity finder does more than match keywords. GovConAgent scans federal opportunities and scores each one against your company profile with an explainable 0-100 fit score - then tells you why it fits: NAICS alignment, set-aside fit, past performance, contract size, and agency. The point is explainable, not 'automated' - you stay in control of the decision.

No login required. See matched opportunities, fit scores, and a bid/no-bid brief in minutes.

Beyond keyword dumps

A generic SAM.gov keyword search returns hundreds of notices with no prioritization. A scored finder ranks opportunities by how well they fit your company, so you spend your limited bid hours on the few you can realistically win.

Why it fits - in plain language

Every match comes with the top reasons it fits, the top risks or gaps, and a suggested decision framed as analysis - never a directive, and never a guarantee.

What the fit score actually measures

Most tools that call themselves AI contract finders are keyword filters with a chat interface. GovConAgent takes a different approach: every active SAM.gov opportunity in the pipeline is scored against your company profile with a deterministic 0-100 fit score. Deterministic means the same profile and the same notice always produce the same score - there is no black-box model deciding your shortlist differently on Tuesday than it did on Monday. That matters when you need to explain to a partner or an owner why one opportunity ranks above another.

The score is built from weighted factors that mirror how an experienced capture analyst would triage a notice. Each factor contributes points toward 100, and every scored opportunity shows you the breakdown - which factors earned points, which came up empty, and where an exclusion keyword cost you points. You are never asked to trust a number; you can read exactly how it was assembled.

The practical effect is a ranked shortlist instead of a search-results page. A firm screening dozens of notices a week can open the top handful, read the factor breakdown, and spend its limited capture hours on opportunities where the profile alignment is real rather than coincidental.

Fit factorWhat it checks
NAICS alignmentYour primary and secondary NAICS codes against the notice's code
Capability keywordsYour stated capabilities against the opportunity description
Set-aside / certificationThe notice's set-aside terms against certifications in your profile
Target agencyWhether the issuing agency is one you told us you pursue
PSC alignmentProduct/service code fit with your line of work
Past performanceWhether your prior work maps to what the notice asks for
Deadline feasibilityResponse deadline against the capacity you declared
GeographyPlace of performance against where you can deliver
Exclusion keywordsA penalty when terms you excluded appear in the notice

Where the opportunities come from

GovConAgent works from active SAM.gov opportunity data refreshed daily, filtered to open, solicitation-type notices. You are not searching a stale archive or a partial scrape; the pool the scorer ranks against your profile reflects what is currently open for response, and the tool always links you back to the official notice so you verify details at the source.

That verification step is deliberate. GovConAgent is not affiliated with SAM.gov, GSA, or the U.S. Government, and a fit score is decision support, not an eligibility determination. When the scorer flags a set-aside alignment, the correct reading is that your certification may align - the solicitation's actual terms, amendments, and attachments on the official site are always the authority.

From a score to a pursuit decision

Finding the opportunity is step one; the finder is built to flow directly into qualification. For any scored match you can generate a bid/no-bid brief that keeps facts extracted from the notice strictly separate from AI analysis - so you always know what the government said versus what the tool inferred. The brief includes an executive summary, a fit assessment, a compliance checklist, questions worth asking the contracting officer, and a proposal outline.

You can try the whole flow without creating an account. The no-login first-match flow takes your NAICS codes, capabilities, certifications, target agencies, and capacity, then returns your scored matches; the free tier includes one full bid/no-bid brief. If you want to see the output format before entering anything, a complete sample report is public.

Frequently asked questions

How is this different from searching SAM.gov directly?

SAM.gov search returns everything that matches your filters, in no useful order. GovConAgent scores each active opportunity against your full company profile - NAICS, capabilities, certifications, agencies, capacity, geography - and ranks the results 0-100 with the reasoning shown. You still verify every notice at the official source; the finder just tells you which ones deserve your time first.

Is the fit score generated by AI?

No - the score itself is deterministic and rule-based, so it is repeatable and fully explainable. AI is used downstream for analysis narratives in the bid/no-bid brief, and even there, facts extracted from the notice are kept separate from AI-generated analysis.

How fresh is the opportunity data?

The opportunity pool is refreshed daily from active SAM.gov data, limited to open solicitation-type notices. Always confirm deadlines and amendments on the official SAM.gov notice before committing resources.

What does it cost to try?

Your first scored match and one bid/no-bid brief are free, with no login required. Paid plans run from Starter at $49/month to Pro at $199/month and Capture Plus at $499/month per seat, and there is a $497 one-time Intelligence Pack if you want a deep deliverable without a subscription.

Will it tell me whether I'm eligible for a set-aside?

No. The scorer flags where a notice's set-aside terms may align with the certifications in your profile, but eligibility is never determined or guaranteed. Verify your status and each solicitation's terms with the SBA and the official notice.

Does using the finder guarantee I'll win more contracts?

No tool can guarantee awards, and we don't. What the finder does is concentrate your effort: instead of skimming hundreds of keyword hits, you evaluate a short, ranked list with the fit reasoning attached, and you make the final call on every pursuit.
