01 · FEED
Every opportunity, scored.
Federal contracts, awards, and grants — scored against your capability profile, with per-factor reasoning. Filter, sort, save. The default view your team works from.
An operations platform for winning federal, state, and local government contracts
From signal to award. Without the noise.
VectorBrief is the decision platform government contractors use to convert federal, state, and local market activity into pipeline. Every opportunity scored against your firm. Every recompete tracked. Every capture decision logged — with the reasoning visible to the people who have to defend it.
Coverage Federal · State · Local one scoring engine, three jurisdictional tiers
Decisions logged Per opportunity bid · no-bid · win · loss
Reasoning Plain English every score, every factor
Audience Mid-tier $1M–$50M services contractors
I The constraint
Government capture is gated by triage, not capability.
A serious mid-tier contractor is technically capable of winning a meaningful share of the work that matches its firm. The constraint is upstream: hundreds of opportunities post weekly across more sources than any team can monitor, generic discovery tools surface keyword matches without reasoning about the firm, and the analytical platforms that can reason about the firm gatekeep the answer behind six-figure procurement.
The visible result is a structurally inefficient pipeline. Bids on wrong-fit work. Missed competitions on right-fit work. BD hours converted to triage instead of capture. The failure is not the contractor — it is the absence of an instrument that reads firms the way they actually compete.
II The platform
Six surfaces. One decision loop.
VectorBrief is built around the operations of government capture. Not a feed; an instrumented pipeline from first signal to award decision, with a reason on every step.
02 · SIGNALS
What you should be tracking.
Recompetes due in your window. Agencies showing affinity for your firm. Set-asides matching your certifications. Capability gaps surfaced from your own past performance.
03 · PIPELINE
Bid lifecycle, instrumented.
Bid / no-bid / win / loss tracking on every record. Capture status, ownership, and history attached to the opportunity that produced them. The audit trail your closeout needs.
04 · SEARCH
Reason across the whole index.
Semantic search across opportunities, awards, and grants. The same engine that powers the score, exposed for analyst use. Saved searches alert when new records match.
05 · WIN-LOSS
Award analysis at firm level.
Historical contract awards by firm — yours, your competitors’, the agencies you serve. Pattern recognition for capture managers who think in incumbencies, not keywords.
06 · BRIEF
Your daily decision surface.
Top-fit opportunities, action-required items, and calendar events delivered to inbox or in-app at your declared cadence. The brief is a delivery surface — the platform is where the work happens.
III Reasoning is the product
Every score has a sentence behind it.
Generic ranking tools tell you what matched. VectorBrief tells you why it matched, in language a capture manager can defend in a meeting. NAICS, set-aside, agency affinity, past-performance similarity, period-of-performance fit — each factor produces a number and a sentence.
The platform does not ask for your trust. It shows its work, and lets you tune the weights when its judgment differs from yours.

IV Who uses it
Built for the firms who win.
Mid-tier government contractors doing $1M to $50M in federal, state, or local government work, services-heavy, with at least one of 8(a), SDVOSB, WOSB, HUBZone, or equivalent state set-aside certification. Capture managers who run their own pipeline. CEOs who still read the bid memos. Partners who price by the hour and won’t tolerate budget bloat.
Pricing reflects the audience. Per-seat, no enterprise floor, no data-sold-by-the-record. The serious instrument at a price that clears procurement on a department line item.
