If you can't trust the number, it isn't worth anything.
You're betting a capture budget on what PursuitIQ tells you. So the engine is built to be checkable, not just persuasive — every figure traces to a source, every recommendation cites its evidence, and the score calibrates against real outcomes as they accrue.
Computed, not generated
Scores, runway, balances — all produced by code and traceable to a source and timestamp. The model explains the numbers; it never invents them.
Evidence, not vibes
Each verdict points to the computed signals and the solicitation text behind it. An ungrounded claim doesn't ship.
Calibrates to outcomes
As real outcomes accrue, we track win-rate by score band and monitor calibration — and we show you when a band drifts. It starts as a transparent rubric and sharpens with volume.
A 70 should win about 70% of the time.
The target: observed win-rate should track each Pursuit Score band. Calibration is the proof that the score means what it says — and we hold ourselves to it as outcomes accrue.
illustrative — bands reconcile to logged outcomes once the flywheel has volume
Deterministic scores. Grounded recommendations. Eval-gated quality.
Funding figures and scores are computed in code — the model explains, never invents. Recommendations cite evidence; ungrounded claims don't ship. Nothing deploys without passing offline evals, and calibration is tracked against real outcomes.

Multi-tenant by invariant
Every tenant row is scoped and isolated; cross-org access is a tested invariant, not a hope.
Encrypted & audited
Encryption in transit and at rest, secrets in a manager, an immutable audit log, and export/delete support.
SOC 2 in progress
Commercial AWS today; SOC 2 underway; GovCloud / FedRAMP only when demand pulls for it.
Systems of record. Funding and award data are grounded in USAspending, OMB apportionments, FPDS, SAM.gov, and Grants.gov — the authoritative public sources, stamped with freshness.
What we have today vs enterprise competitors.
We do not claim SOC 2 Type II, CMMC Level 2, or FedRAMP authorization until attested. Below is an honest comparison inspired by enterprise GovCon security questionnaires.
Auditable AI architecture
AURA gateway enforces deterministic funding numbers; eval-gated skills; immutable admin audit events; tenant-scoped APIs with RAG org membership checks.
SOC 2 Type I → II
Control-owner matrix, evidence repository, and auditor engagement on roadmap. Target: sales-ready trust pack within 6–9 months of production hardening.
CUI / FedRAMP / single-tenant
Multi-tenant SaaS on commercial AWS today. We defer CUI workloads and dedicated-instance deployment until CMMC scoping and customer demand justify it.
Platform hardening roadmap. WAF, CloudTrail, GuardDuty, customer MFA required, secrets off disk, pen test program, and trust portal with subprocessors — aligned to our internal protection plan.
Three ways in — one transparent registry.
Scrape-only competitors optimize for logo breadth on a marketing page. PursuitIQ combines intelligent scraping, AI enrichment, and official APIs — with agency direct feeds on the roadmap — and shows you exactly how each source is obtained.
Intelligent scraping
Structured adapters for portals without public APIs — OMB apportionments, defense vehicle boards, and forecast systems. We label scrape limits and freshness honestly.
AI agents & enrichment
AURA parses org documents and enriches records — derived intelligence on top of authoritative feeds, never substituted for primary source data.
Agency relationships
Roadmap tier for direct data agreements with federal program offices. Zero active partnerships today — we show planned vs live in the public registry.
Active sources — how obtained
Full inventory on the Data Sources page and the public /api/v1/sources/registry endpoint.
vs scrape-only tools: A long /sources logo wall does not prove funding truth or verification tier. PursuitIQ publishes acquisition method and verification status per adapter — so you know whether a number came from SAM.gov, a licensed mirror, a scrape, or AI-derived enrichment.
