BidHeron
Public tender alerts for the UK, EU, US and Canada
Public tenders are spread across separate government portals, each with its own search and alerts. BidHeron reads Find a Tender and Contracts Finder (UK), TED (EU), SAM.gov (US federal) and CanadaBuys every two hours and puts them in one search. Search free with no account. Save an alert and get new matches by email: weekly on the free plan, daily on Pro ($19/month or $171/year) with up to five alerts, a plain-English summary and a fit score with a one-line reason for each tender.
Hi Product Hunt! I built BidHeron after seeing how much time small suppliers spend checking government tender portals one by one.
Every market has its own: Find a Tender and Contracts Finder in the UK, TED in the EU, SAM.gov in the US, CanadaBuys in Canada. Each has different search rules, categories and alert settings, so it is easy to miss the one tender that fits.
BidHeron reads all five every two hours and puts them in one search. You can search free without an account. Save an alert and new matches arrive by email: weekly on the free plan, or daily on Pro with a short summary and a fit score explaining why each tender does or does not suit what you sell.
Every tender links to the official notice, which stays the authority on deadlines and documents.
I would love your feedback, especially if you bid for public contracts: what would make this worth $19 a month to you?
