In their own words

Where GovIntelligence falls short.

Taken from GovIntelligence’s own pages and from public reviews, each with its source.

  1. No public price

    The site refers to an annual licence but lists no prices. The route in is a demo booking.

  2. It stops before the bid

    GovIntelligence focuses on the work before a tender is published and the bid/no-bid call. Writing the response is not described.

Where Zephior goes further

What changes for your bid team.

Free search, then the bid

The public tender directory on zephior.com/tenders is free to browse without an account. When a tender fits, Ziva reads the full tender package and drafts the response.

Qualification on the documents

Before you commit a team, Ziva reads the tender documents against what your company can prove and shows where you are strong, where you are exposed and what only you can answer.

The submission files, finished

Ziva fills the buyer’s own Excel forms and price sheets, writes the proposal in their Word template and assembles the package as Word, Excel, PowerPoint and PDF files.

A bid team when you need one

Our Zelius bid team can take on a tender with you in the same workspace, scoped per bid.
