Upload a federal solicitation. Get every requirement back, with the page it came from.
A solicitation is the document an agency of the United States government publishes when it wants to buy something. Buried in its 20 to 300 pages are the sentences you will be scored against. Miss one and your proposal can be thrown out before anyone reads it. BidShred pulls them all out in a few minutes.

This is the actual output, from a real solicitation
Five rows from the Coast Guard sidewalk-repair solicitation that ships with this product. Every row carries the file and the page, so you can open the PDF and check it.

What you get back
The requirement checklist
One row per mandatory sentence, quoted word for word, with the file and page number, grouped by topic. Downloads as a spreadsheet with empty columns for who owns it, its status, and where you answered it.
The proposal outline
A Word document whose headings mirror the structure the government asked for, with each requirement filed under the heading that will answer it.
The submission checklist
Page limits, font and margin rules, file naming, how many volumes, the questions deadline and the proposal deadline — in one place instead of scattered over forty pages.
The bid-or-skip summary
How many requirements, how long you have, which agency, whether the work is reserved for a category of small business, and what is actually being bought — in plain English.
How do you know it did not miss one?
That is the right question, and it has a real answer. Every line BidShred produces quotes the solicitation word for word and names the page. Before a line is saved, the product goes back to that page and checks the sentence is really there; a line that fails is thrown away rather than shown to you. On top of that, a set of solicitations has been read by hand and counted, and the product is tested against those counts every time it changes.

What it does not do yet
It does not write your proposal from your past ones. That is the obvious next thing and it is deliberately not here: nobody should trust a draft from a tool whose checklist they have caught being wrong, so the checklist earns the trust first. It also does not submit anything to the government for you, and it does not help with pricing.
