What's new
The upgrades Bidoogle has shipped, newest first.
Upgrade to a paid plan — billing is now live
2026-10-25- Stripe checkout for Starter, Pro, and Complete — upgrade from your account page.
- Managed plan (done-with-you bid prep) is now available by inquiry.
- Billing is handled by Stripe — we never store card numbers. Cancel anytime.
- Finalized, attorney-reviewed Terms & Privacy are live.
Stripe billing wired.
2026-10-19- stripe.js added; /checkout + /stripe/webhook live; /terms + /privacy live; billingDisclaimer() updated.
Bidoogle now installs on your phone and desktop like an app, and there is a plain page listing exactly what data we hold.
2026-10-19- Add Bidoogle to your home screen: open app.bidoogle.com on your phone, then use 'Add to Home Screen' (iPhone: Share menu; Android: browser menu). It opens full-screen with the Bidoogle icon and goes straight to your dashboard.
- New page, Data we hold (app.bidoogle.com/data): what we store about you, which services process it, what we never do, and how to delete your account. Linked in the footer of every page.
- Pricing clarified: paid checkout is not open yet. Every plan button starts a free account and we take no card.
- Sign-up examples now reflect healthcare and training NAICS codes (621610, 611430).
Fixed the three gaps from your latest feedback.
2026-10-19- RFI/ITB/RFP classification now reaches DemandStar rows (stale-cache fix) — RFIs show a “Request for Information” label and no “Prepare bid” button
- Solicitation breakdown now links “Open full solicitation & documents” straight to the source portal
- Scope (Summary + What is being procured) was already reading the real body — evaluation criteria and response format now point you to the attached document when the portal summary omits them
- “Ask Bidoogle” verified working end-to-end; if it looked broken, hard-refresh (Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+R)
You can now read opportunities in-app
2026-10-19- Full solicitation text now loads for DemandStar bids — scope of work, contact, budget, and deadline, instead of a blank page.
- Fit scores now read the full scope, not just the title, so relevant bids rank higher.
- No-bid notices (RFI / sources-sought) are clearly marked so you don't waste time drafting bids.
- When SAM.gov is down, you still see recent federal opportunities — marked 'cached'.
- Removed stale/garbage-dated listings from the feed.
