Watch the field
When a competitor wins, you know.
Follow any company. The day they win a federal contract, you get the notice: buyer, amount, what it tells you about their strategy — and which of their contracts expire soon, so you can be at the table for the rebid.

FAQ
Where does the data come from?
From the Government of Canada's official open procurement data on CanadaBuys: every tender notice and every award record published since 2009. SunTzu.ai reads it with artificial intelligence (AI), scores it against your profile, and turns it into decisions. We never scrape private sources.
How is this different from CanadaBuys' own alerts?
CanadaBuys matches keywords. SunTzu.ai reads the actual notice with AI, understands what the buyer wants, scores the fit against your company, and — this is the part nobody else does — shows you the award history: who wins these contracts, at what price, against how many bidders. Alerts tell you a tender exists. We tell you whether you can win it.
How will it help me win more contracts?
Three ways: you stop missing relevant tenders (our AI reads everything, every week); you bid informed (historical winning prices, bidder counts, recurring competitors in your space); and you prepare faster with 30-second summaries, red-flag detection, and the AI proposal builder in the war room.
What does it cost?
PRO is 49 $/month (490 $/year). MAX — with bidder prediction and the war room — is 99 $/month (990 $/year). The first 100 founding members lock PRO at 29 $/month or 290 $/year, for life. Taxes are calculated automatically at checkout, there is no commitment, and you can cancel anytime.
Does it cover provincial and municipal tenders?
SunTzu.ai covers federal procurement — every department and agency buying through CanadaBuys, with delivery anywhere in Canada. Provincial and municipal coverage is on the roadmap.
Where is my data stored?
In Canada. Our database is hosted in the Canada Central region and your information does not leave the country for storage. We do not sell or rent your data.
