What is in the desk today, and how to grow it toward a full live firehose.

  • NAICS tags and labels for search
  • Set-aside, vehicle, clearance, place, value band
  • Default capability profile for Observable Universe (editable)
  • Client-side bid scoring + CSV export

Official systems to verify

  • SAM.gov — contract opportunities

  • Grants.gov — federal grants
  • AFWERX / SpaceWERX / xTech / DIU CSO portals
  • Agency BAAs and program announcements

Roadmap to “all opportunities”

A complete live mirror of every DoD and SBIR notice requires authenticated API access (SAM.gov opportunities API key), scheduled ingest, and change tracking. This desk is the product shell: search, NAICS filters, capability model, and bid/no-bid. When you provision a SAM API key, we can add a refresh job that upserts new notices into this corpus without changing the UX.

Not affiliated with the U.S. Government. Opportunity text here is structured for triage training and capture workflow — confirm each live notice before proposal effort.
