How it works
From a notice anywhere to a scored page here, every day.
We monitor public procurement records and the open web daily, turn each notice into structured facts, score it the same way for everyone and publish it with a free report.

The daily pipeline
Five steps, every day
The same pipeline runs for every RFP, whoever issued it. Each step is logged, and every RFP page shows when it was last updated.
Collect
We monitor public procurement records and the open web daily for federal, state, local, education, private and non-profit RFPs, and publish the RFPs organizations post on RFP Detector.
Extract
We pull out the facts that matter: issuer, deadline and time zone, value, set-aside, NAICS, place, contacts and documents, then write a short summary labelled “Summary by RFP Detector”.
Score
Six weighted factors produce the RFP Detector Score from 0 to 100, with a sentence for each factor and a data-confidence level. Unknown facts count for nothing.
Report
Each RFP gets a public page and a five-page PDF report: summary, score breakdown, market context, requirements and related RFPs. Free, no sign-up.
Alert
Save any search as an alert. We email new matches instantly, daily or weekly, and remind you before tracked deadlines.

How we use what we find
Our own page for every RFP
We show the key facts, our own summary, the RFP Detector Score and a free PDF report. Every page says when it was last updated.
The official solicitation
Signed-in users get a link to the official solicitation and its documents. We don't copy third-party descriptions or re-host third-party documents. Always confirm dates and requirements on the official solicitation.
Buyer postings
Organizations publish their own RFPs, attachments and contact details on RFP Detector and can edit, amend, close or award them.
Our crawler
How we read public web pages
Our crawler reads public pages the way a polite search engine does.
- It identifies itself. Every request sends the user agent
RFPDetectorBot/1.0 (+https://rfpdetector.com/how-it-works). - It honours robots.txt and never tries to get past logins, paywalls or bot protection.
- It reads, it doesn't copy. We keep extracted facts and our own summary, and point signed-in users to the official solicitation and its documents.
Run a site we read?
You can control access with robots.txt using the user agent above, or ask us to stop reading a site or remove its RFPs through the contact form.
Corrections
Report an error or request removal
If an RFP is wrong, out of date or shouldn't be listed, tell us and include the page link. We review every request.
RFP Detector is an independent service and is not affiliated with any government agency. Scores are informational.
