What KimonBids is

KimonBids is a web service for discovering UK tenders and preparing bid responses. It monitors Contracts Finder, Find a Tender, and Public Contracts Scotland, covering England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland; Welsh notices are listed on Find a Tender. Its AI scores opportunities against sector, capability, geography, value, and certifications. For drafting, it uses company documents, PSQ answers, and past winning bids to produce structured responses. Teams can assign bid sections, track review status, and reuse saved answers, with performance tracking across submissions. The service also includes tender document management and compliance tracking. A Companies House integration enriches company profiles with more than 15 fields. The free plan costs £0 forever and includes one daily search, five results, three keyword alerts, and one lifetime watermarked AI bid draft. Paid plans cost £79, £179, or £399 monthly; annual billing gives 20% off. Plans include role-based team access, with user limits varying by plan. KimonBids states alignment with UK GDPR, PECR, and the Procurement Act 2023, and says Stripe handles card data under PCI DSS, with cardholder data stored in the EU.
