KimonBids is AI-powered tender discovery and bid management software built specifically for UK small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). It monitors all four UK government procurement portals in real time, scores each opportunity against your company profile, and helps you write winning bid responses. KimonBids is designed to reduce the time SMEs spend finding and qualifying tenders, so more time can go into writing better bids.

KimonBids runs automated monitoring across all four official UK public procurement portals: Contracts Finder (for contracts above £10,000), Find a Tender (for contracts above £138,760 subject to the Procurement Act 2023), Sell2Wales (covering Welsh public sector buyers), and Public Contracts Scotland (covering Scottish public sector buyers). New opportunities are ingested continuously throughout the day. Each tender is parsed, classified, and matched against your registered business profile using AI scoring.

KimonBids offers four pricing tiers. The Free plan gives access to basic tender discovery at no cost. The Pro plan is £79 per month and unlocks AI matching and email alerts. The Growth plan is £179 per month and is the most popular tier, including AI bid drafting, bid library, and team collaboration for up to five users. The Scale plan is £399 per month for larger teams requiring unlimited users and advanced reporting. All paid plans are available on monthly or annual billing, with a 20% discount for annual.

KimonBids monitors all four official UK public procurement portals: (1) Contracts Finder, run by the Cabinet Office, covering English public contracts above £10,000; (2) Find a Tender (FTS), the UK replacement for TED post-Brexit, covering contracts above the Procurement Act 2023 thresholds; (3) Sell2Wales, the Welsh Government procurement portal for all Welsh public sector buyers; and (4) Public Contracts Scotland, covering all Scottish public sector buyers. This means KimonBids provides complete coverage of the UK public sector market, with no portal gaps.

Yes. KimonBids was purpose-built for UK SMEs, not large bid teams or procurement consultancies. The AI matching and go/no-go scoring is specifically calibrated to help small businesses identify contracts they can realistically win, rather than wasting time on contracts above their capacity or outside their sector. The bid writing tools are designed to work from the documents a small business already has, such as company policies, past project descriptions, and capability statements, rather than requiring a pre-built content library.

When you start a bid in KimonBids, the AI analyses the tender specification, extracts the key evaluation criteria and questions, and generates a structured first-draft response drawing on your uploaded company documents, your PSQ response bank, and your past winning bids stored in the bid library. The draft is editable in a rich-text editor. You can insert saved PSQ answers, request AI improvements to individual sections, and track word counts against tender limits. The AI is trained on UK public sector bid writing conventions, including social value requirements under PPN 06/20 and Procurement Act 2023 compliance.
