Worth it?
One contract pays for years of BidSkim.
In the 12-month reports we run for new sign-ups, 7 in 10 had missed at least one contract that matched their business. 3 in 4 recent public sector awards were worth £45,000 or more, so one miss can cover years of the subscription. The free report will show you what it finds for yours.

Questions
Things people ask before paying.
The portals already send me free alerts. Why pay?
BidSkim replaces them. Each portal only shows its own notices, the alerts match the words you typed in, and in the 12-month reports we run for new sign-ups, 7 in 10 had missed a contract that fit them. BidSkim scans every official portal daily, scores each notice against your service lines, and adds what portals don't have at all: renewal radar, buyer profiles and competitor tracking. The official notice stays one click away when you need it.
Will this pay for itself?
Public sector contracts are often worth tens of thousands of pounds each. One contract you'd otherwise have missed can cover years of the subscription. Run the free report first: it shows the actual contracts on your patch, which makes the case better than we can.
What if it finds nothing for us?
Then don't pay. The free scan and 12-month report show the honest picture, and some trades genuinely see little public work. Better to find that out free than on an invoice.
Do you write bids?
No, and that's deliberate. BidSkim does the work before the bid: finding, qualifying and researching. The writing stays yours. It also keeps our scoring honest, because we gain nothing by telling you a weak match is strong.
Who is BidSkim not for?
Large bid teams that need seats, exports and account management are better served by the enterprise platforms. And if your trade sees little public work, the free report will show you that quickly.
Can I narrow it to my region, size of work and certifications?
Yes. Your profile sets the regions you cover, the contract values worth your time, and the certifications you hold, and every match is scored with those in mind. Inside the app you can also filter the feed by region, category, framework type and stage.
What's the difference between Monitor and Predict?
Monitor tells you which live tenders deserve attention. Predict helps you plan before they go live: see likely renewals, learn what target buyers typically require, identify the right contacts, and prepare your certifications, evidence and answers while there is still time.
Can I change plan later?
Yes. Upgrades, downgrades, invoices and payment details are all handled from Settings. Billing runs through Stripe.
What if I cancel?
Monthly plans cancel any time and run to the end of the month. Annual plans have a 30-day money-back guarantee, then run to the end of the year if you cancel later.
What areas do you cover?
Public tenders across Britain, from Find a Tender, Contracts Finder, Public Contracts Scotland and Sell2Wales.
