Different tools for different jobs — GovWin for market intelligence, HE Pursuit for the bid/no-bid decision.
GovWin is built to surface and research opportunities. HE Pursuit is built to decide on one. Each evaluation walks you through fit, eligibility, effort, and risk — and produces a Go, Conditional Go, or No-Go recommendation your team can act on.
GovWin focuses on opportunity discovery, pipeline data, and market research. HE Pursuit focuses on what comes next: evaluating whether a specific opportunity is worth pursuing. Different tools for different jobs.
GovWin offers depth across forecasting, pipeline data, and market research. HE Pursuit is built for owner-operators, solo capture leads, and lean teams that need to move fast without burning bandwidth.
GovWin accelerates opportunity discovery. HE Pursuit accelerates the qualification decision. Most evaluations take minutes — giving you a structured answer before you commit proposal resources.
Deltek doesn't publish GovWin IQ pricing; it is quoted per seat. HE Pursuit's pricing is on the page: Free, then $99, $199, or $299 a month.
If you're a small contractor, you may not need GovWin at all. SAM.gov gives you the opportunities. HE Pursuit helps you decide which ones to pursue — structured evaluation on top of what's already publicly available.
A federal services solicitation can ask for a senior Appian-certified developer with 10+ years of federal acquisition experience and an active Top Secret clearance. Very few people meet all three criteria at once. A small business reading that requirement can self-disqualify, or burn an afternoon writing a "we don't quite meet this but..." paragraph that is unlikely to survive compliance review.
HE Pursuit catches requirements like this in Phase 2 eligibility review — where the solicitation's requirements are checked for hard disqualifiers before your team commits an afternoon to a proposal you can't win.
It depends which job you need done. GovWin IQ is a market intelligence subscription — pre-RFP forecasting, pipeline data, and competitor research at scale. If what you actually need is to decide whether a specific SAM.gov opportunity is worth bidding, HE Pursuit is built for that job: it evaluates fit, eligibility, effort, and risk, then returns a Go, Conditional Go, or No-Go recommendation. Small contractors who already find opportunities on SAM.gov but struggle to qualify them are the fit.
Deltek does not publish list pricing for GovWin IQ; it is quoted per seat. HE Pursuit publishes its pricing: Free, Starter at $99/month, Pro at $199/month, and Team at $299/month. No credit card is required to start, and the SAM.gov notice analyzer is free to use without an account.
Teams that need what GovWin actually sells. If you need multi-year pre-RFP forecasting, state and local coverage, agency spend analytics, or a shared pipeline database for a large BD department, HE Pursuit does not replace those and is not trying to. It also adds little if you already have a dedicated capture team running a disciplined bid/no-bid process. HE Pursuit is for lean teams whose qualification process today is a spreadsheet and a gut call.
Yes, and for teams that already own GovWin that is the normal pattern. GovWin surfaces and forecasts opportunities; HE Pursuit qualifies the ones you are seriously considering and documents the reasoning behind the decision. They sit at different stages of the same pipeline.
No. The SAM.gov notice analyzer at honestecho.com/tools/sam-gov-notice-analyzer is public and requires no login — paste a notice ID or SAM.gov URL and it returns a scored assessment. The Free plan adds search and bookmarks without a credit card.
