Frequently asked questions about pricing
Can I change plan at any time?+
Yes. You can upgrade or downgrade your KimonBids plan at any time from your account settings. Upgrades take effect immediately so you can access new features straight away. Downgrades apply at the end of your current billing cycle, so you retain full access to your current plan features until then. There are no penalties or fees for changing plans.
What counts as an AI bid draft?+
An AI bid draft is a full structured response generated for a specific tender, based on your uploaded company documents and profile. One draft credit is consumed when you generate the initial response for a tender. Saving edits, exporting to Word, or regenerating individual sections within the same bid workspace does not consume additional credits. Free plan drafts are watermarked and cannot be submitted directly -- they give you a realistic preview of the AI output quality before you upgrade to a paid plan.
Which tender portals do you cover?+
KimonBids indexes all four UK government procurement portals: Find a Tender (FTS), which covers above-threshold contracts under the Procurement Act 2023; Contracts Finder, which covers lower-value contracts and post-award notices; Sell2Wales, which covers procurement by Welsh public bodies; and Public Contracts Scotland, which covers Scottish contracting authorities. Together these four portals account for substantially all UK public sector procurement activity.
Does the free plan include any AI bid drafts?+
Yes. The free plan includes one lifetime trial bid draft. It is watermarked and read-only so you can see what the AI produces before deciding whether to upgrade. There is no monthly reset on the free plan -- the single draft is a one-time trial. All paid plans include monthly draft credits that reset each billing cycle. If you need more than your monthly allowance, you can upgrade your plan at any time.
What happens to my data if I cancel?+
Your data is retained for 30 days after cancellation so you can export anything you need, including bid drafts, company documents, and track record data. After 30 days your account and all associated data is permanently deleted from our servers. We recommend exporting your bid library and any important documents before cancelling. You can restart a free account at any time after cancellation.
Can I add team members?+
Yes. All plans support multi-user organisations with role-based access. The Free plan includes 1 user. Pro supports up to 3 users, Growth up to 5, and Scale up to 10. You can invite colleagues from your organisation settings and assign Owner, Admin, Member, or Viewer roles. All team members share the same workspace, bid library, and company profile.
How does KimonBids pricing compare to Tracker Intelligence?+
Tracker Intelligence does not publish prices on their website and requires a sales call for a quote. Based on market intelligence, Tracker contracts typically start at approximately £4,000 to £6,000 per year for basic portal access, with AI or bid writing functionality substantially increasing that cost. KimonBids publishes all prices transparently. Our Scale plan at £399 per month (£4,788 per year) includes AI bid writing, pre-procurement intelligence, PA2023 compliance tools, and coverage of all four UK portals -- features Tracker does not include at any price point. See our full comparison for a detailed breakdown.
Is there a free tier for KimonBids?+
Yes. The free plan is available permanently with no credit card required. It includes basic tender search across all four UK portals, up to three keyword alerts, and one lifetime AI bid draft (watermarked). The free plan is designed for SMEs who are new to government tendering and want to explore the opportunity landscape before committing to a paid subscription. There is no time limit on the free plan.
Can I switch between monthly and annual billing?+
Currently KimonBids offers monthly billing on all paid plans. Annual billing options with a discounted rate are on the product roadmap. Monthly billing means no long-term lock-in -- you can cancel or change plan at the end of any monthly cycle. If you are interested in annual billing for budget planning purposes, please contact us and we can discuss options.
