Question 3

How do I find RFPs before my competitors?

Accepted Answer

Starbridge centralizes thousands of state, local, education, and university bid portals into one AI-powered feed. We monitor 24/7 and alert you the moment an RFP drops, so you're always first to know. Plus, we track early buying signals—like contract expirations and meeting minutes—months before RFPs are released.

Question 4

Should I wait for the RFP to be released?

Accepted Answer

No. If you're not already part of the RFP writing process, you're already behind. Starbridge helps you identify opportunities months early through buying signals like strategic plans, board meeting mentions, contract expirations, and new budgets—so you can influence requirements before competitors even see the RFP.
