Smart Tenders

Smart Tenders is a web workspace for discovering tender opportunities and managing bids from intake through export. Its workflow covers bid decisions, drafting, review and final approval, with tools for document management, compliance tracking, reusable content and approval workflows. Teams can assign work, track blockers, set answer ownership and collect reviewer evidence before locking a final version. The workspace handles protected PDF, DOCX, XLSX, CSV and ZIP workflows and exports Word, PDF, ZIP and compliance handoff files. It accepts direct notice links from four UK procurement sources, but does not fetch buyer portals, credentials, attachments or contact details. The free workspace requires no card and starts with 50 workspace credits. Monthly founding plans cost £49 a month for Starter, £79 a month for Supplier Workspace and £149 a month for Consultancy / Team. Stripe hosts payment details while Smart Tenders stores entitlement metadata. AI output is for review only and cannot claim compliance or guaranteed wins. Users should review cancellation and refund boundaries before checkout.
