How ReconBids AI Works
Seven powerful tools. One seamless workflow. Built specifically for small businesses competing on SAM.gov.
Upload Your Capability Statement
Drop your PDF or Word doc — ReconBids AI does the rest. It instantly extracts your NAICS codes, certifications, past performance, core capabilities, keywords, target agencies, and set-aside status. No manual data entry.
Your profile becomes the intelligence engine powering every feature in the platform.
AI Searches SAM.gov — Automatically
Hit "Search for Me" and ReconBids AI builds 4–6 targeted SAM.gov queries tailored to your specific profile, runs them all in parallel, deduplicates the results, and delivers scored opportunities — all in under 60 seconds.
Stop spending 20+ hours a week on SAM.gov. Let AI do it in seconds.
Every Opportunity Scored & Analyzed
Each opportunity gets a 0–100 fit score with full reasoning — match analysis, risk review, compliance flags, extracted requirements, and a clear bid/no-bid recommendation. No guesswork. No wasted time on bad fits.
AI reads the full opportunity so you don't have to — and tells you exactly where you stand.
Attachment Intelligence — Every Document Read
ReconBids AI reads every attached SOW, PWS, amendment, and pricing sheet. It extracts key requirements, submission instructions, evaluation criteria, and flags action items — surfaced directly in your pipeline.
The details that win contracts are buried in attachments. AI reads every one.
Find Teaming Partners Instantly
The Teaming Finder connects directly to the SAM.gov Entity Management API. Search by NAICS code, state, and certifications to find active, registered teaming partners — filtered by 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, WOSB, and more.
Stop searching Google for teaming partners. Find certified, registered companies instantly.
Manage Your Full Capture Pipeline
Save the best opportunities to your pipeline and track them through 11 status stages — from New to Won. Add notes, assign next actions, set due dates, run compliance checklists, and monitor your entire pursuit process.
A capture pipeline that actually keeps up with your pace — built for government contractors.
Recon Advisor AI — Your Contracting Expert
The Recon Advisor is a conversational AI expert in government contracting — aware of your company profile and pipeline. Ask about set-asides, NAICS codes, proposal strategy, FAR clauses, certifications, and more.
Like having a BD consultant on call — for a fraction of the cost.
