The AI workforce for the entire government market
Federal is a $700B market. State, local, and education is twice that — and most of it never hits a bid board. Tembo's agents and their sub-agent squads hear the buying signal in a school-board meeting, watch the contract coming up for recompete, benchmark the price to win, and draft your outreach. Every insight cited to its source. Every record stamped with when we last verified it.

Four agents. Sixteen specialists. One pipeline.
Other platforms hand you a search box and 50,000 results. Tembo gives you a BD department: four AI agents, each running a squad of sub-agents with one job each. You're the principal — they brief you, you decide.
Nova
SIGNALS DIVISION · BD SCOUT
Finds the opportunity before it's an opportunity — across bid boards, board rooms, and expiring contracts.
Bid Sweep
One consolidated feed across SAM.gov and state & local bid portals — matched to your NAICS, PSC, and keywords, alerted in under 24 hours.
Meeting Listener
Reads public meeting agendas, minutes, and transcripts to catch purchase intent 6–18 months before a solicitation exists.
Recompete Radar

Mines published budgets and capital improvement plans for funded line items that match what you sell.
Atlas
INTELLIGENCE DIVISION · ANALYST

Price Analyst
Benchmarks what agencies actually paid for comparable work from public spending records — so you price to win, not to guess.

Watches the primes and rivals in your niche — their awards, their expirations, and where they're vulnerable.

Ares
CAPTURE DIVISION · PROPOSAL DIRECTOR
Turns a signal into a pursuit: score it, team it, draft it. The action loop other platforms stop short of.
Bid/No-Bid Scorer
Scores every opportunity against your profile and win history on six explainable dimensions — and shows its reasoning, line by line.

Extracts every requirement from Sections L & M into a compliance matrix before you write a word.
Option-Year Extractor
Reads contract documents for end dates, option years, and renewal terms — feeding the Recompete Radar.
Registration Sentinel
Watches your SAM registration, certifications, and set-aside eligibility — and warns you before anything lapses.
Provenance Auditor
Enforces the house rule: no claim without a citation. Every agent output links to the source record and its verification date.
From buying signal to submitted response
Intelligence platforms stop at "here's a lead." Tembo's workforce runs the whole loop.

The fine print, in large print
Terms you'd never get from the incumbents
This category is notorious for quote-only pricing, 1–3 year lock-ins, and auto-renewals you find out about from an invoice. We built the opposite, on purpose.
Published pricing
Every tier, every price, on this page. No demo required to learn a number.
Monthly billing
No annual upfront. No multi-year contract as the price of entry.
Cancel anytime
Monthly plans cancel in one click. We win renewals with the product.
No auto-renew surprises
Annual plans get a renewal notice 60 days out. Every time.
Freshness on every record
Every contact, bid, and contract shows when we last verified it. Stale data flags itself.
A citation on every claim
Agents must link every insight to its source record. No source, no claim.
Why Tembo
Built for the firms the incumbents price out
vs GovWin IQ
Their entry point is five figures a year. Ours is $19 a month.
Analyst-curated intel is priced for primes. Tembo's agents deliver the working small-business version — with monthly billing.
vs SLED intel platforms
They show you data. Our workforce does the work.
Search boxes and dashboards end at 'here's a lead.' Tembo scores it, prices it, teams it, and drafts the outreach — with published pricing and no lock-in.
vs HigherGov & bid boards
50,000 results isn't intelligence. Three right ones is.
Nova curates the signals worth your morning; everything else stays out of your way. And nobody else matches you with teaming partners.
Simple, transparent pricing
Monthly billing. No annual upfront. No implementation fees.
