How it works

Deterministic where it should be. A model only where documents must be read.

Three stages. The middle one is where the language model lives — and it is metered openly.

You give it

The tender package (PDF/DOCX — specifications, data sheets to be filled, standards references), your product datasheets, test certificates and manuals, and two or three past technical responses for voice and structure.

The agent

Extracts every numbered requirement, classifies it (performance, material, standard, documentation, commercial-technical), searches your documentation for evidence, decides Comply / Partial / Deviate / Needs engineer, and drafts the response paragraph with the supporting reference.

You get back

Compliance matrix (clause, requirement, status, evidence link), deviation table in the buyer's required format, draft technical response document, and an engineer question list sorted by impact — exportable to DOCX and XLSX.

Why model usage is a line item

A single tender is 200–600 pages read against thousands of pages of your own documentation, then re-read as engineers answer questions. One bid is typically 30–80 million tokens; a team answering four tenders a month runs 100–300 million. Requirement extraction and matrix assembly are deterministic; the model is spent on reading and drafting.
