Paste the RFQ. Critical Bids does the work.

Not a chatbot. Not a generic proposal writer. A full bid engine designed around the way industrial tenders are actually won.

📥
01

Understands the RFQ

Reads every technical, commercial, programme, HSE and documentation requirement and turns the enquiry into a structured bid plan.

🧠
02

Uses your company brain

Pulls from your experience, case studies, certifications, people, previous proposals, pricing history and supplier base.

⚡
03

Gets live prices

Connects to supplier APIs. Where no API exists, it emails suppliers automatically, tracks the request and updates the cost build when replies arrive.

🏁
04

Builds and validates the bid

Writes the proposal, prices every line, applies your branding, checks maths and contradictions, and scores the finished response against the buyer's own criteria.

Your company, inside the engine

It bids like your best team — because it knows what they know.

Critical Bids starts with your business, not a blank prompt. Every proposal is grounded in the evidence you give it and becomes smarter as you use it.

The ROI case

Less cost.
More bids.
More wins.

Saving engineering hours is only the beginning. The real return comes from getting more high-quality bids out the door, responding faster than competitors, catching details humans miss and increasing the number of opportunities you can pursue without increasing headcount.

AI investment should drive the wedge between cost and revenue wider. Critical Bids is built to do exactly that.

The final validation layer

It checks the bid the way the buyer will.

Before export, Critical Bids checks every requirement against the finished document, validates arithmetic, identifies contradictions and surfaces anything that could lose marks.

The objective is not to produce more words. It is to produce the highest-scoring compliant bid your company can support.
