Legacy platforms charge enterprise rates for features built in the 2000s.
GovWin and Deltek were built before AI existed. PursuitDeck was built for how contracts are won today.
Legacy tools show you opportunities. PursuitDeck scores them, analyzes incumbents, and tells you which ones to pursue — automatically.
GovWin requires formal onboarding. Deltek needs an implementation team. PursuitDeck connects to SAM.gov and shows opportunities the same day you sign up.
At $15K/year, GovWin is priced for large primes. PursuitDeck gives small businesses and subcontractors the same power at 1% of the cost.
Every opportunity comes with an AI-generated win score based on your past performance, NAICS codes, certifications, and competitor history.
PursuitDeck drafts proposal sections for you. GovWin and Deltek stop at tracking — you're on your own for the actual writing.
Month-to-month subscription. No annual contracts, no sales calls to cancel, no surprise renewal fees. Pay for what you use.
Defense contractors using PursuitDeck spend less time researching and more time winning. Join them.
