What can you do on SAM.gov for free?

You can search contract opportunities without an account. With an account, you can save searches, follow changes to opportunities, and join interested vendor lists. Start with these tools if they meet your needs.

See SAM.gov’s official opportunity search and help.

A paid subscription does not unlock exclusive versions of those public notices. Always use the official posting for current instructions, attachments, amendments, and response deadlines.

What does PursuitForge add?

A company review profile
Compare supported records with your company’s NAICS codes, keywords, agency interests, and locations. Read the match reasons to understand the signal; a score is not an eligibility decision or a prediction of winning.
Shared follow-through
Keep company review statuses, assignments, next actions, and internal due dates together. At the next check-in, return to recorded work instead of reconstructing who was reviewing what.
Personal monitoring
Build personal watchlists and manage your own deadline reminders and digest preferences. These settings are separate from your company’s shared profile and review work.
Source context
Open official source links, inspect available record details, and review recorded notice changes. Supported data can be incomplete or delayed; check the source before acting.

SAM.gov may be enough

You review a small number of notices, saved searches keep you informed, and your existing notes already make ownership and follow-up clear. There is no reason to add another tool unless it improves that routine.

A workspace may help

You repeatedly rebuild the same shortlist, lose review context between sessions, or need teammates to see who owns the next action. Test whether a shared review record reduces that work.

Evaluate one real review session

  1. Choose a notice you would normally review and open its official source.
  2. Read the profile-match reasons and compare them with your own understanding of the work.
  3. Record the review status, a concrete next action, an owner, and an internal due date where your role permits.
  4. Return at your next check-in. Can you find the record and understand what happens next?

Measure the time and clarity of that routine. Do not judge value by the number of notices alone. You can start with the free review worksheet before trying the workspace.

Know the cost before starting

Individual is $39.99 per user/month plus applicable tax. The 7-day introductory trial requires a card at checkout and automatically becomes a paid subscription unless canceled before the trial ends. Creating an account alone does not start the trial clock.

Team is $149/month or $1,490/year for one company and up to five people. The owner pays once; teammates use included seats. Pending invitations reserve seats. Review pricing and cancellation details.
