04 FAQ

How it works — asked + answered.

Is the news feed really free?
01

Yes. Every opportunity brief is public, free to read and SEO-indexable — no signup. Signing in adds AI fit scoring against your profile, the application workspace and deadline tracking.

How accurate is the AI fit score?
02

The score combines hard eligibility rules (incorporation, province, headcount, revenue, sector) with a language model reading the official program terms. We always link the source document and show the reasoning, so you can verify — we’re an aggregator and AI layer, not a government body.

Where does the data come from?
03

From 127 official sources — CanadaBuys, BC Bid, SEAO, Alberta Purchasing Connection, the funding program pages of NRC, CRA, ISED, EDC and 1,200+ municipal/MASH portals. Every brief carries a verified timestamp and a link back to the original.

Is my business data secure?
04

Profile data is encrypted at rest (AES-256) and in transit (TLS 1.3), hosted in Canadian regions, SOC 2 Type II audited, and compliant with PIPEDA and Québec’s Law 25. We never sell your data.
