24 alternatives to GovConToday
Hey HN, I built GovConToday (https://govcontoday.com) to solve a problem I kept hearing from small businesses chasing federal contracts: SAM.gov is painful to search daily. GovConToday scans SAM.gov every morning, matches new and closing-soon opportunities to your NAICS codes and preferred states, and sends a digest email with AI-generated summaries and bid/no-bid scoring. Free plan: 5 matched contracts/day with deadline tracking. Pro ($29/mo): 15 matches, AI scoring, weekly intelligence briefing, set-aside filtering. Stack: Next.js 15, Supabase, Groq (Llama 3.1 8B…

I've long been into finding deals on government auction sites (seizures, surplus sales etc.) - right now for example San Diego DHS is selling 26 tons of lead shot, with bidding starting at $1,000 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ It has historically been extremely tedious though: scanning dozens of janky sites which have interminable page loading times; back buttons take you all the way back to the homepage etc. The site I built - GovAuctions - lets you search every government surplus auction at once. You can filter by location, category, and price, save items to a watchlist, and get alerts when new auctions…

Midday▲969I’ve been working on automating bookkeeping tasks, and one big pain point was manually reconciling receipts with bank transactions. We built a system that runs in the background, parses receipts (including Gmail), suggests matches, and learns from confirmations to auto-match over time. It's built into Midday and fully open-source. Let me know if you have any questions!

Based on the multiple "Who's hiring remotely?" and similar posts on HN, I thought it might be useful to have a site that aggregates remote programming jobs. There is way too much spam out and an inconsistent way to say "work from home" so traditional searching doesn't work (or rather, takes a long time per person). I've worked in a few remote programming positions so I figured I might know of some companies or searching tricks to find them. Let me know if you'd find this type of thing useful. If we can get some traffic going, then maybe we can start attracting companies to actually list…

I'm gauging interest for a service that would help connect devs/designers/copywriters with folks who have short term projects (a few days or weeks of work). The projects would range in value, but should ideally be at least a few $100. Through Forrst, there are already thousands of such people available to work, it's just a matter of if this is interesting to the other side. If it is, would you leave your info? Thanks a ton.

Briefing AI▲14Hey HN, I pitched an investor for 30 minutes before realizing they'd already passed on a similar company in their portfolio. That moment broke me. I'd wasted both our time because I didn't do basic research. So I built Briefing AI: Paste any calendar invite and Get an Intelligence-style dossier on attendees in 30 seconds. THE WORKFLOW: You have a meeting in 10 minutes. You know nothing about the attendees. Before: • Open LinkedIn, search "Sarah Chen Sequoia" • Skim profile, open 5 tabs • Google her recent activity • Try to remember talking points • Show up flustered • Total time: 15-20…

Hi HN, I built Morning Report because every morning I was losing the first 30 minutes just checking Sentry, Linear, Gmail, and PostHog separately before doing any real work. It connects to the tools you already use and compiles a single daily briefing, organized into five sections: what broke overnight, what you committed to, what's performing, what needs you, and what happened in the world. Delivered by email and archived on a dashboard. The part I spent the most time on: instead of a generic AI summary, you set your own "editorial voice" in plain English for how you want your data filtered…
