Built in the open
You asked. We build. Here’s the proof.
What we have shipped, what we are building, and what is planned next. Requests come from the people who use it; we read every one, and what we commit to goes on this board.

Ask the holders of a contract vehicle for a quote on it, from the vehicle’s own page.

In Progress1
Automated data verification
14 official sources are read on a schedule today, and each company record shows how many of them confirmed it, and when. Automated checks re-run on a schedule: every day for the NIJ Compliant Products List, SAM.gov exclusions and the sanctions lists, and every week for SAM.gov registrations and state filings. Each reading is dated on the record. More registries are being connected.
