Upload your capabilities and past performance; the platform matches live solicitations by meaning, not keywords, and explains fit with relevance scores and cited requirements. - **Who is RFPs.ai for?** Business development managers, proposal teams, and sales leaders who need to find contract opportunities they can actually win. We are Canada-first, with US federal, state, and local sources on the roadmap. - **How is semantic search different from keyword alerts?** Keyword alerts fire when a word appears in a notice. Semantic search compares scope, eligibility, evaluation criteria, and your company profile to surface opportunities with explainable match scores, so you spend less time on false positives. - **Which procurement sources do you cover?** We are Canada-first: Canadian federal, provincial, and municipal portals (CanadaBuys, Ontario Tenders, and municipal networks) are live today. US federal, state, and local sources are on the roadmap. Contact sales if you need validation for a specific agency list. - **Is my data used to train shared AI models?** No. Your uploaded documents and search history stay in your workspace. We do not use customer data to train shared foundation models. - **How do I get started?** Create your account at app.rfps.ai, upload a capability statement, and run your first semantic search. Paid plans start at $100/month billed annually ($125/month on monthly billing) for Starter; see pricing for Pro and Enterprise options. ## FAQs (pricing) - **What exactly is 'Semantic Search'?** Unlike keyword search that looks for exact word matches, semantic search understands the context and intent. We vectorize your company's profile and compare it mathematically to the RFP requirements to find deep conceptual matches. - **Is my company data used to train the models?** No. Your proprietary documents and search history are strictly isolated within your workspace. We never use client data to train our shared base models. - **Can I cancel my subscription any time?** Yes. You can cancel at the end of any billing period with no penalty. We offer a 14-day 'No Questions Asked' refund policy for your first purchase. - **Do you support international procurement?** We cover Canadian federal, provincial, and municipal sources today, with US expansion on the roadmap.
