Pricing questions

What is founder pricing?

New paid subscriptions get 50% off the list price (Pro $49/month, Pro + AI $149/month), so Pro is $24.50/month and Pro + AI is $74.50/month today. You keep the 50% discount for as long as you stay subscribed, including if you switch between plans or between monthly and yearly. If we ever change list prices, we'll email you at least 30 days before the new price applies. The discount ends when your subscription ends: when a cancellation takes effect, or when a failed payment isn't fixed. If you cancel and then undo it before your paid period ends, you keep it. If you come back later, you'll pay the price in effect then. There's no end date set, and we can end the offer for new subscribers at any time. The no-card free trial doesn't lock it in on its own, so choose a plan before the offer ends.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. The Free plan has no end date planned. It lets you search open contracts, see matches ranked for your business, get email alerts on 1 saved search, build a capability statement, read AI summaries on thousands of open notices, get 1 AI bid/no-bid brief a month, and work on up to 2 bids at a time. The bid builder and AI first drafts are on the paid plans.

How does the free trial work?

Every new account gets 14 days of Pro free, with no card needed, plus one AI draft of your business profile from your website to try it. When the trial ends you drop to Free unless you choose a paid plan. Pro + AI has no free trial: it's charged when you subscribe, and you can start on Pro and upgrade anytime.

What happens to my work if I go back to Free?

Nothing is deleted. Your saved opportunities, notes, documents and drafts stay. What changes is what's included: paid tools such as the bid builder and recompete radar stop, alert emails cover only your oldest saved search (the rest stay saved), you can't start another bid while you already have 2 active ones, and you can't upload more files once you're over 50 MB, though the files you have stay. Choose a paid plan again and those limits lift.

Is there a discount for paying yearly?

Yes. Pro is $245/year and Pro + AI is $745/year with founder pricing, which works out to two months free. A yearly plan is paid up front and renews automatically each year until you cancel. We email you about 30 days before each yearly renewal, so you can cancel or switch first. If we ever shut FedReady down, we'll give 60 days' notice and refund the unused part of your year.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. Paid plans renew automatically each month or year until you cancel. You can cancel or switch plans anytime online from Plan & billing in your account, with no email or call needed. Canceling stops the next renewal, and you keep your plan until the end of the period you've paid for. We don't refund the rest of the current period, yearly plans included, except in the cases the Terms list: a charge made in error, a change that takes away something central to your plan, FedReady shutting down, or when the law requires it. That's why Pro comes with a free trial: try it before you pay.

What is an AI brief?

A plain-English summary of one opportunity: what the agency wants, the key dates and requirements, how well it fits your business, and questions to ask before you decide whether to bid (a "bid/no-bid" decision). Thousands of open notices already have an AI summary you can read for free. For one that doesn't, or to see how a notice fits your business, you use a brief: 1 a month on Free, 15 on Pro and 50 on Pro + AI. Limits count per calendar month and reset at midnight UTC on the 1st of each month (the evening before in US time zones).

Can my team share one account?

No. Each account is for one person, and sharing an account isn't allowed under the Terms. There's no team plan yet. If several people at your company want to use FedReady, each can create their own account. If you need something built for a team, email hello@fedready.us and tell us what you need.

How up to date is the data?

Open notices are refreshed every day from SAM.gov, and past awards come from USAspending.gov. Always check the notice on SAM.gov before you bid.

Do I need FedReady to register on SAM.gov?

No. SAM.gov registration is free, and you can do it yourself. FedReady helps you find, track and bid on contracts once you're registered, and our free guides walk through registration step by step.
