# TenderB — Government Contract Bid Management Plugin

An AI-powered bid management plugin for government contractors. Covers the full bid lifecycle from opportunity discovery through post-award analysis — designed for teams pursuing federal, state, and local government contracts in the United States.

## Installation

Install from the Claude marketplace, or manually:

```bash
/plugin install https://github.com/tenderb/tenderb_claude
```

## Live Data (MCP Server)

The plugin connects to the **TenderB GovCon Scout MCP server** for real-time access to 13 US government databases: SAM.gov, USASpending, Grants.gov, FPDS, Federal Register, USAJobs, Regulations.gov, GovInfo, and more.

- **Free**: 20 searches/month — connect and authenticate at [mcp.tenderb.us](https://mcp.tenderb.us)
- **Pro** ($49/mo): Unlimited searches
- **Team** ($149/mo): 5 seats, unlimited searches

Sign up at [mcp.tenderb.us/signup](https://mcp.tenderb.us/signup). The plugin's `.mcp.json` is pre-configured — just authenticate when prompted.

Without the MCP server, the plugin still works using Claude's built-in web search for opportunity discovery.
