Small team. Bigger opportunities.

Open government bids, already read. Ask your AI. Or call the API. You know your trade; you shouldn't need an army of estimators and bid researchers to find your next government contract. NextBid collects federal, state and local opportunities and, when source documents are available, reads them for you. Built for small businesses, with a focus on the set-aside opportunities reserved for businesses like yours.

Coverage: Federal, state and local opportunities across the U.S., plus U.S. federal work abroad. State and local coverage is expanding, starting in California. Every record links to its official notice and shows when its source was last checked. The issuing agency's official notice always controls.

Counts as of 2026-10-07 22:23 UTC, from the NextBid Data service. Open means NextBid currently considers it available for response, based on its source status and deadline; past deadlines are never counted as open. How we calculate these.

Built for the small business that knows its trade

Big contractors have estimators and bid researchers. You know your trade. NextBid handles the searching: it brings relevant public solicitations into one place and links you back to the official opportunity.

Ask the way you actually work. Roofing in Texas, concrete in California, office supplies for school districts.
See small-business programs clearly. Designated set-asides stay separate from opportunities that only mention a program.
Go straight to the source. Every opportunity points back to the official procurement notice.

Set-asides, clearly
