It surfaces opportunities by trade and service area with contract values, deadlines, required forms, site visits, and other bid details. Users can receive bid alerts, review early signals from agency meetings and budgets, view past award information, and track changes to bid dates or documents. Bid Builder helps prepare bids by filling forms with company information, while Bid Team provides bid-planning and paperwork assistance.

Audience
Developers and product teams shipping address-validation, geocoding, or postal-data features into their own products. Primary buyers: e-commerce platforms (checkout validation), CRM/RevOps admins (lead routing and territory mapping), store-locator product teams (service-area coverage), real-estate and market-research analysts (ZIP-level demographics), and logistics teams (distance and addressing across US + Canada). Self-service freemium pricing means individual developers can evaluate and ship without engaging a sales team.
