Stop missing SAM.gov opportunities that match your NAICS codes
Notice Nudge watches SAM.gov for you and emails a daily digest at 6:00 AM Mountain Time of new and amended notices that match your NAICS/trade codes, states, and small-business set-aside status — including early-stage notices like sources sought, RFIs, and presolicitations — with plain-English summaries and a link back to the official posting. Pro subscribers also get same-day emails when new matches post during the day.
Card required at signup. Your trial lasts 14 days. Unless you cancel first, your card is charged automatically on day 15 for Solo ($39/mo) or Pro ($79/mo).
The problem
You're a small trade or service business that bids on federal work — HVAC, electrical, IT services, janitorial, construction specialties, and similar — without a full-time bid desk.
SAM.gov has the opportunities. The problem is volume and timing: relevant notices are easy to miss between everything else on your plate, early-stage postings (sources sought, RFIs, presolicitations) often disappear into the noise, and amendments can change a due date or scope after you already looked once.
Checking the site by hand works until it doesn't. Saved searches on SAM.gov help, but many small contractors still want a simple daily email that already matches their codes, states, and set-aside status — written so a busy owner can skim it in a few minutes.
How it works
-
Tell us what you chase
Pick your NAICS (or trade) codes, the states you work in, and any set-asides you qualify for (8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, WOSB and more). Full-and-open notices are always included. That becomes your alert profile.
-
We watch SAM.gov
Our bots check the official SAM.gov public API for new and amended notices that match your filters — including early-stage notices, not just full solicitations.
-
You get a daily email at 6:00 AM Mountain Time
Each matching notice arrives with a plain-English summary and a link to verify it on SAM.gov. On Pro, new matches can also email you later the same day. You decide whether to bid; we don't write proposals for you.

Compared with free SAM.gov saved searches
SAM.gov is the official source, and its saved searches and email notifications are free and valuable. Many contractors should use them.
Notice Nudge is a paid convenience layer on top of that public data. What we add:
- Filters aimed at how small trade/service shops actually chase work (codes + states + set-aside eligibility in one profile)
- A single daily digest at 6:00 AM Mountain Time instead of (or alongside) scattered notices
- Plain-English summaries so you can skim before opening the full posting
- On Pro, same-day email when brand-new matches post, plus amendment tracking on notices you care about
We do not replace SAM.gov. Every alert links you back there to verify. We are not faster than the government's own posting clock, and we do not guarantee you will see every possible match.
