Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about GovSignal and how we simplify government contracting for your business.

How does GovSignal work?

GovSignal connects you directly to government contract opportunities that match your business profile and capabilities. Our platform aggregates opportunities from federal, state, and local government agencies, then uses intelligent matching to surface only the contracts most relevant to your company. You receive curated alerts, detailed opportunity analysis, and step-by-step guidance through the bidding process—eliminating the need to manually search multiple government databases.

What is your pricing model?

GovSignal offers tiered subscription plans designed for businesses of all sizes. Our Starter plan covers essential opportunity alerts and basic bid support. The Professional plan adds advanced analytics, dedicated account support, and bid preparation tools. Enterprise plans include custom integrations, unlimited team members, and strategic consulting. All plans are billed monthly or annually, with annual subscriptions receiving a 20% discount.

Can I cancel my subscription anytime?

Yes. You can cancel your GovSignal subscription at any time without penalties or long-term commitments. If you're on a monthly plan, cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing cycle. For annual subscribers, you may cancel anytime, and your access continues through the end of your paid year. We believe in keeping our relationship with you transparent and flexible.

How do you handle my company data and privacy?

Your data security is our highest priority. GovSignal uses enterprise-grade encryption, regular security audits, and compliance with SOC 2 Type II standards. We never sell your company information to third parties. Your business profile, bidding history, and communications remain confidential and are used solely to improve your experience and deliver relevant opportunities. We comply with all applicable data protection regulations, including GDPR and CCPA.

What makes GovSignal different from searching contracts manually?

Manual searching across government databases like SAM.gov, FedBizOpps, and state portals is time-consuming and often results in irrelevant opportunities. GovSignal eliminates this inefficiency by using proprietary matching algorithms that understand your business capabilities, certifications, and past performance. We deliver pre-vetted opportunities directly to you, provide intelligent filtering to reduce noise, and offer integrated bid guidance that government databases don't provide. Most clients report finding higher-quality opportunities while spending 80% less time on research.

Who should use GovSignal?

GovSignal is ideal for any business pursuing government contracts, including small businesses, minority-owned enterprises, women-owned businesses, veteran-owned firms, and larger contractors seeking to expand their government revenue. Whether you're new to government contracting or an experienced bidder, our platform serves companies across all industries and sizes. Typical users include construction firms, IT services providers, manufacturing companies, professional services firms, and logistics companies.

What is your refund policy?

We offer a 30-day money-back guarantee. If you're not satisfied with GovSignal within your first 30 days, we'll refund your subscription fee in full—no questions asked. This gives you risk-free time to explore the platform and evaluate its value for your business. Additionally, monthly subscribers may cancel at any time, and annual subscribers who cancel retain access through their paid period.
