Find the tenders
that fit your work.
Lucius collects new tenders from official portals (UK Contracts Finder, Find a Tender, TED, SAM.gov, Grants.gov, AusTender, CanadaBuys, Ireland eTenders and more) and ranks them against your company profile.
- A strong, fair or weak match for each tender, with the reason
- Filters down to UK region and city, US state and Australian state
- Tagged by sector, so a filter finds your kind of work

Lucius learns
from your past bids.
Upload your past bids. When Lucius drafts, it looks at your won bids first and leaves lost ones out. The buyer's feedback on a lost bid becomes a list of weaknesses to avoid.
- Four folders: past, won, lost, and company information
- Won bids come first when Lucius drafts
- Feedback on a lost bid becomes a list of weaknesses the next draft avoids

Three minutes with a real tender beats any tour. Upload one, no account needed.
A first draft
built on your own bids.
Lucius writes a first draft section by section, following what the tender asks for. It uses wording and credentials from your own bids, and where your library has no answer it leaves a marked gap instead of inventing one.
- Sections follow the tender's requirements
- Gaps marked for you, never filled with made-up facts
- Edit it, then export to Word, PDF or Excel
1. Executive Summary
This proposal responds to Rossendale Borough Council's invitation to tender for the refurbishment of the Elder Children's Play Area at Edgeside Park, to a ceiling of £140,000 with a closing date of 18 September 2026. The tender asks for two similar schemes delivered in the past two years, with plans, photos and references; ours are [TO COMPLETE: 2 references]. We will organise and fund the RoSPA playground inspection on completion and rectify any high-risk defects it raises.
2. Requirements
Ask about one tender,
or all of them.
Ask Lucius about the tender in front of you and the answer comes with its page. Or ask across your whole workspace: every tender you follow, your bid library, the gaps to fill and the deadlines coming up.
- Questions about one tender, answered with the page
- Questions across all your tenders and your bid library
- It checks the certifications a tender demands against what you hold
What's the financial threshold for the supplier resilience clause?
Section 8.4 requires minimum £10m turnover with 3-year filed accounts[p. 47]

How Lucius checks its work
Every claim, traceable.
Every finding comes with the page it came from, and every score with how it was worked out.
Reads every page
Text, tables and scanned pages, in the documents as the buyer published them: PDF, Word, Excel or a ZIP of the whole folder.
Page-level citations
The requirements quoted word for word, each with the page it came from. Click to open the source.
Severity grading
High, medium or low for each requirement: 'shall' and 'must' are high, options medium, nice-to-haves low, each with a one-line reason.
Risk score (0-100)
Worked out from how many requirements there are and how serious they are. Higher means more ways to fail the bid.
Auditable export
Every export carries the reasoning: the requirement, its severity, the reason and the page. Share it with your team or an auditor.
