Grants · bids · contracts · charted
Type in your company and answer three quick questions. Open Purse searches today's federal grants, open government bids, contracts that are about to be re-bid and research partnerships, then ranks the ones that fit you and tells you why.
Your matches will show up here.
A search takes about 20 to 40 seconds. We look at every open federal grant and bid posted today, plus federal contracts in your line of work that end in the next 18 months and will likely be re-bid.

Sectional
Pilots fly with a sectional chart: one sheet showing the airspace, the frequencies and the hazards ahead. Sectional does the same for your company: the money that fits you, the people who decide, and every deadline for the next 12 months. It updates itself every week.
One page with the grants, bids and programs that fit you, ranked, plus the offices that run them and the gaps to close before you apply.
New federal, state and local opportunities matched to your company, each with its deadline and why it fits.
A heads-up when the people who decide your issue arrive or leave, at an agency, a state office or a congressional committee.
Hearings, bills, budget lines and rule changes that touch your business, each with one line on what it means for you.
The companies winning the contracts you want today, so you know who to beat or who to team with.

Questions
Yes. Search as often as you like and see your top 3 grants, open bids and partnerships with fit scores, plus "Money on the table," "Companies like you," the Washington view and your Sectional chart. A paid plan unlocks every match, scorecards, first drafts, teaming partners and alerts.
Official, public federal sources: Grants.gov for grants, SAM.gov for open bids (refreshed every morning), USAspending.gov for past awards and spending, and the U.S. Senate and House Clerk for members of Congress and committee seats.
Those sites list everything for everyone. Open Purse reads them for you, keeps only what fits your company, explains why in plain English, flags what you qualify for, and shows who wins this work today and which contracts are about to be re-bid.
No. Open Purse finds and explains opportunities and writes a first draft to get you started. You decide what to pursue and submit it yourself. If you'd like hands-on help, use "Request a call" in the Washington view.
They're an AI's reading of each listing against what you told us, a fast way to sort hundreds of notices. Always confirm eligibility, dates and amounts in the official notice before you apply or bid.
