The RFP search engine small businesses actually like to use is making the leap to your phone — and yes, we built it from scratch. Here's a quiet truth about small business bid pipelines: most small businesses don't lose bids. They miss them entirely.

You know how it goes. The right opportunity drops on a Tuesday afternoon while you're on a job site. By the time you check SAM.gov on Thursday morning, you've already burned 36 hours of a tight response window — and you still haven't read the SOW.

The Bid Banana mobile app is launching later this month to fix that part. We rebuilt our RFP search from the ground up for your phone, bringing the same 1M+ local, state, and federal bid opportunities to a job site, a meeting room, or wherever you actually run your business from.

Is the Bid Banana Mobile App Worth Downloading?

A lot of "mobile apps" are just websites that got squeezed through a phone-shaped door. That's not what we did.

Every element of the Bid Banana app — from the card-based search results to the filter panel — was rebuilt for the way your phone actually works. Smaller screen. Touchscreen. Five-second decisions.

When the app drops, compare our bid cards to what you'd find on a typical government procurement portal. The difference will be jarring (in a good way). Each card surfaces exactly what you need to triage in five seconds: bid title, issuing agency, state, open and close dates, and a brief description. You can tell at a glance whether it's worth tapping in for more info.

No walls of text. No deadline hunt. The information is exactly where you'd expect it. So, yes. It's worth downloading.

What Will the Bid Banana Mobile App Have on Launch Day?

Here's what our subscribers can enjoy and do with the Bid Banana mobile app on launch day:

• Search 1M+ open RFPs, RFQs, and ITBs from local, state, and federal entities across all 50 states

• Access closed bid data and awarded contract records for competitive intelligence

• Filter by industry, agency, and state — with your active filters displayed, so you always know what you're looking at

• Save searches to return to your most relevant results instantly

• Favorite individual bids to revisit the ones worth pursuing

• AI-assisted bid summaries that extract key requirements and deadlines

Does the Bid Banana Mobile App Have Push Notifications?

Save a search in Bid Banana mobile, opt in to push notifications, and the moment a new opportunity matches your criteria, your phone lights up.

No more logging in every morning to check what's new. No more daily habit of manually monitoring SAM.gov, your state procurement portal, and the four other platforms your favorite agencies post to.

So, yes, we'll have push notifications. The bids will come to you.

But whether that translates to a win is still up to you. (We can help with that part, too, if you want.) All we know is that you can't win a bid you never see— and small businesses miss most of theirs because they're running a business, not refreshing portals.

The companies that respond fastest to new RFPs are usually the ones that win them. Push notifications will put you first in line.

How Much Will It Be To Subscribe to the Bid Banana App?

If you've spent any real time on government bid portals, you don't need us to explain why we built something different. The pricing reflects it: it's $49.99/month. Seven-day free trial. No feature tiers. Every Bid Banana subscriber gets everything — web and mobile. We don't use paywall filters. We don't put award data behind an "enterprise" upsell. Just a straightforward tool that does what it promises.

And the app itself? Free for every active Bid Banana subscriber. No upgrade. No upsell. No add-on tier. If you already subscribe on the web, the app will just show up — your saved searches and favorites already loaded and waiting. When it launches, you'll be able to find it in the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store.

How Do I Become a Bid Banana Subscriber?

Already a Bid Banana subscriber? Sit tight. The app will be free for you the moment it goes live, and we'll send you a note the second it does.

Sign up now, start running your pipeline through Bid Banana on the web, and as soon as the app drops, you'll be tapping notifications instead of refreshing portals.
