Put the sources that matter in one place — funder guidance, the RFP, your last three winning bids — and ask questions across them. Every answer is numbered back to the passage it came from, and when your sources don't cover something, it says so.
Answers carry inline citations. One tap opens the passage in full, so you can read the sentence the answer was built on before you paste it into a bid. Save the answer as a note and the citations travel with it — a note written months ago is still traceable.
Drops the 60-page NOFO and last year's award letter into a notebook, then asks what changed in the eligibility rules. Gets four differences, each cited to a section number, and forwards the note to her board without re-reading either document.
Nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status and a current SAM.gov registration [1]. Fiscal sponsors are allowed only where the sponsor is itself eligible [3].
Paste text, point at a web page, upload a file, or pull in something you already have here — an opportunity or a delivery workspace. Tick a source off to keep it in the notebook without letting it influence answers, for when a document is noisy or out of date.
PDF sources aren't supported yet.
One request returns what the sources cover, where they disagree with each other, and the three questions worth asking next. It is the fastest way to decide whether an opportunity deserves your time — which is exactly why notebooks aren't gated behind a paid plan.
Briefing flags that the RFP asks for a bonded contractor while the addendum quietly drops the requirement. They ask the buyer, get it in writing, and bid — the two competitors who read only the RFP don't.
Scope, timeline, insurance minimums, evaluation weighting.
RFP §4 requires a bonded contractor; Addendum 2 removes it.
Which document governs? Is the site visit mandatory? Who scores the technical section?
Save any answer as a note and the citations stay attached. Reuse it in a bid a year later and you can still show where the number came from.
Share a notebook with your team so everyone bids off the same reading, or keep it to yourself while you decide.
Research happens before you know whether something is worth pursuing. Gating it would be backwards, so we didn't.
