Notes on how we build intelligence.
We publish our methodology because our clients stake bids and compliance on our data. These notes cover how we collect, verify, and generate — and the limits of each.
Methodology2026
Why hyper-local sources beat national datasets for public-sector bids
National construction and education datasets lag local reality by months. We outline how continuous collection from municipal, county, and state portals changes bid timing and pricing accuracy.
Compliance2026
Tracking code changes across fragmented jurisdictions
A single metro area can span dozens of code authorities. We describe our approach to detecting, normalizing, and alerting on requirement changes across that patchwork.
Generation2026
From raw requirements to code-matched draft structures
How our pipeline converts tracked local requirements into 10-page draft structures — and where human review still matters.
Pricing2026
Localized retail price intelligence as a bid input
Competitor retail pricing varies sharply by locality. We examine how hyper-localized price signals feed more competitive — and more profitable — bids.
