Priced on the bids you file, not the ones you read
Every plan and price is published below, and they are what you will pay. IFXBid is in invite-only private beta with a public launch coming soon — tiers differ by how many bids you submit each month, and scanning, scoring and triage are unlimited on all of them.
Get in before we open the doors
IFXBid is live and running against real solicitations — for a small group of bid desks we onboard personally. Public launch is coming soon. Until then, the way in is an invitation, and the plans below are exactly what they’ll cost you.

Request an Invite
Tell us what you bid on and which portals your buyers publish to. We'll tell you straight away whether those sources are ones we already support.

We Onboard You
We connect your portals, write your first bid criteria with you, and tune them against real scored results — a few desks at a time, which is why the beta is invitation only.
Public Launch
SoonComing soon. Beta desks are already running against live solicitations, and everything they shape lands in the version everyone else gets.
No self-serve signup while the beta runs — every account is opened by us.

The things people ask before they ask for an invite
Can I sign up for IFXBid today?
No. IFXBid is in invite-only private beta, so there is no self-serve signup — every account is opened by us. Tell us what you bid on and which portals you watch, and we'll talk about a slot.
What does invite-only private beta mean?
The platform is live and running against real solicitations for the desks already on it. We're adding new ones a few at a time rather than opening the doors, so that every account gets the onboarding described below instead of a login and good luck.
When does IFXBid open to everyone?
A public launch is coming. We're not putting a date on it publicly, because the thing that decides it is how the current desks' scoring holds up across new portals rather than a calendar. Ask us and we'll tell you where it stands.
What do I get out of joining during the beta?
Onboarding attention that won't be possible at scale, and real influence over what gets built — the scoring bands, the pipeline states, and several source adapters exist because a beta desk asked for them. You also get your portals supported early, which matters if your buyers publish somewhere unusual.
How do I get an invite?
Ask us. The contact form is the whole process. The more you tell us about what you bid on and where your buyers publish, the faster we can say whether your sources are ones we support today.
Are the prices below what I would actually pay?
Yes. These are the plans invited desks are onboarded onto today, published in full so that an invitation never arrives with a surprise attached to it.
How does the quarterly discount work?
The prices shown are the effective monthly rate. Paying quarterly saves you at least 15% against month-to-month and is invoiced once every three months. Month-to-month is always available at the full rate with no commitment.
What is the onboarding fee for?
A one-time $1,150 setup: we connect your procurement portals, write the first version of your bid criteria with you, and tune it against real scored results until the short list matches what your team would have picked by hand. It's the work that decides whether the scoring is useful, so we'd rather do it properly than leave you to it — and it's the reason the beta is invite-only rather than open.
When is onboarding free?
It's included at no charge on Elite when you pay quarterly, and always included on Multi-Company. On Starter, and on Elite paid month-to-month, it's charged once at $1,150.
What counts as a bid submission?
An opportunity you mark as submitted in the pipeline — one bid sent to one agency. Finding, scoring, and triaging opportunities is unlimited on every plan, and so is working a bid up to the point you file it; only the submission itself draws down the monthly allowance. The count resets at the start of each billing month.
What happens if I reach my monthly submission limit?
Nothing breaks and nothing is blocked mid-bid. We'll flag it as you approach the limit so you can decide whether to upgrade, and the allowance resets with your next billing month.
What does “companies you hold ownership in” mean?
Multi-Company covers any number of businesses you own or hold a controlling stake in — separate entities, divisions, or subsidiaries under common ownership. Bidding on behalf of unrelated third-party clients, as an agency would, is a different arrangement; talk to us and we'll price it properly.
Can I switch plan or billing term later?
Yes. Upgrades take effect immediately and are prorated against what you've already paid. Moving from monthly to quarterly applies at your next renewal, so you never pay twice for the same period.
What counts as a connected source?
One procurement portal — SAM.gov, your state system, a municipal site, or an aggregator. Each has its own adapter, and each is scraped on the twice-daily schedule.
What if the portal I need isn't supported?
Tell us. New adapters are how the platform grows, and adding one for a source you depend on is a normal part of onboarding rather than a custom project.
Do I pay per opportunity scored?
No. Scoring runs across everything your connected sources publish, and the plan price doesn't move with volume.
Can I change my criteria after setup?
As often as you like. Criteria are versioned, so the calibration report can show you whether an edit actually improved your scoring accuracy.
What happens to my data if I cancel?
You can export your bids, pipeline history, supplier records, and knowledge base at any time, including after you cancel.
Is there still a free trial?
Yes, and it works the way it always did — connect a source, write your criteria, and see a real scored inbox before you pay anything. The only difference during the beta is that it begins with an invitation instead of a signup form.
Get In Before the Doors Open
IFXBid is in private beta with a public launch coming soon. Tell us what you bid on and which portals your buyers publish to, and we'll tell you whether we can support them today.
