What Is Bureauify?
What is Bureauify?
Bureauify is a search and orientation layer for U.S. government information, built on contracts, grants, bills, and economic data from SAM.gov, USAspending, FPDS, and Grants.gov into a structured, searchable platform.
Unlike single-source tools that only show you one slice of the federal procurement landscape, Bureauify combines data from 100+ government feeds into one unified search. Intelligence-powered semantic search understands what your business does — not just keywords — so you find relevant opportunities faster.
The core job is orientation: find the record, understand what it means, verify it against the official source, see what it connects to, and follow it as things change. People arrive for a specific form, clause, award or agency — often without knowing the vocabulary yet. For those working government business professionally, the Workspace adds saved searches, tracking and team coordination on top of the same records.
What does Bureauify do?
Search Contracts & Grants
Semantic search across 100M+ federal records. Find contracts, grants, and opportunities by agency, NAICS code, set-aside, place and plain-language question.
Save & Follow
Save what matters and follow agencies, contractors, regulations and records. Bureauify tells you when they change so you never miss a deadline or a recompete window.
Check the Source
Every record links to its official government source, with what it is, why it matters and what to do next, so you can verify before you act.
Understand Entities
Agency, contractor, program, state and form pages explain the object and connect it to related awards, rules and records, including who has been winning.
Monitor Legislation
Track bills, regulations, and executive orders that affect your industry. Stay ahead of policy changes that create or close market opportunities.
Compare Vendors
Explore vendor profiles and agency buying patterns across historical awards.

How is Bureauify different from SAM.gov?
SAM.gov is the official U.S. government portal — it is where opportunities are posted and where businesses must register to get a Unique Entity ID (UEI). Bureauify does not replace SAM.gov.
Instead, Bureauify builds on top of SAM.gov by combining its data with three additional federal sources, adding semantic search that understands your business context, and providing what SAM.gov does not offer: entity pages that explain who is buying and who is winning, Follow alerts when records change, and a link from every record back to its official source.

How is Bureauify different from SAM.gov?
SAM.gov is the official government portal for contract opportunities. Bureauify aggregates SAM.gov data with USAspending, FPDS, and Grants.gov, adds semantic search, entity pages that explain who is buying and who is winning, and Follow alerts when records change. Every record links back to its official source. Think of Bureauify as an orientation layer on top of SAM.gov, not a replacement for it.
Where does Bureauify get its data?
Bureauify ingests data from 4 primary core federal sources (SAM.gov, USAspending, FPDS, Grants.gov) and 110+ supplementary feeds including the Federal Register, GAO, IG reports, SBIR, SEC EDGAR, and state procurement portals. Data is updated multiple times daily.
Can I act on a record from Bureauify?
Every record links to its official government source, so you can go from the Bureauify page to the authoritative document, portal or filing in one click. Bureauify never submits anything on your behalf; responses, registrations and applications go through the official portals (SAM.gov, Grants.gov, and the agency systems they name).
What types of records does Bureauify index?
Bureauify indexes contracts, grants, bills, regulations, patents, research awards, exclusions, bid protests, audits, job listings, financial filings, clinical trials, disaster records, and more — over 20 distinct record types.
Is Bureauify suitable for small businesses?
Yes. Bureauify was built with small businesses in mind. It includes set-aside pages and filters for 8(a), SDVOSB, WOSB and HUBZone programs, a PTAC/APEX directory, size-standard lookups, and Follow alerts for the agencies and programs you care about.
How often is the data updated?
Core data sources update multiple times daily. SAM.gov and FPDS update twice daily, USAspending updates weekly, and Grants.gov updates daily. Supplementary sources run on daily or weekly schedules.
Does Bureauify replace the need for SAM.gov registration?
No. All businesses that want to do work with the federal government must register in SAM.gov to get a Unique Entity ID (UEI). Bureauify complements SAM.gov by making it easier to find and win the opportunities posted there.
