Data Sources

Where the data comes from.

Exactly which sources feed your match queue, how fresh they are, and which systems CaptureCore deliberately does not integrate with.

Last updated: July 14, 2026

Source coverage, plainly

One status per source, derived from what is actually implemented: Live (running in production), Beta (built, limited rollout), Planned (committed, not built), and Researching (under evaluation — no integration exists). Nothing is listed as Live unless it is.

SourceWhat CaptureCore does todayStatus
SAM.gov opportunity noticesIngested read-only from the official Get Opportunities API using CaptureCore's own key. Coverage is deliberately bounded — a daily run ingests a capped batch of recent notices, so the database describes ingested notices, never all of SAM.gov. Every stored notice keeps its link to the official record.Live
SAM.gov notice descriptionsFull notice text is fetched at ingest so match scoring and signals read the actual description, not a stub.Live
SAM.gov amendment detectionStored notices are compared on re-import; changes surface as amendments you must acknowledge before a bid reads as ready.Live
USAspending.gov award historyOfficial award records (contracts, vehicles, task orders, transactions, reported subawards) are ingested read-only from the public USAspending API, scoped to the NAICS codes of stored notices. Coverage is deliberately bounded — totals describe ingested records, never lifetime spending. Feeds incumbent and recompete analysis; no separate award pages yet.Live
Agency procurement forecastsNot integrated. We are evaluating which agency forecast files are reliable enough to ingest.Researching
SBA SUBNet subcontracting listingsNot integrated. Under evaluation.Researching
GSA eBuy RFQ dataNot integrated — no confirmed public data API exists (RFQs are visible only to logged-in Schedule holders, and CaptureCore does not scrape logged-in portals).Researching
Bid protest docketsNot integrated. Under evaluation.Researching
Submission channels — SAM.gov, GSA eBuy, FedConnect, PIEE, agency portals, emailGuided handoff only: portal-specific checklists, package assembly, a link (or mailto draft) to the official destination, and receipt logging after you submit there yourself. No data feed, no automated submission, no credentials.Live — handoff only

When a status changes, this table changes first — a source is never described as integrated before the integration ships.

SAM.gov public opportunity data

CaptureCore ingests federal opportunity notices from SAM.gov's official public data API — read-only, using CaptureCore's own API key, never your account. Coverage is deliberately bounded: each daily run ingests a capped batch of recently posted notices, so CaptureCore describes the notices it has ingested, never the whole of SAM.gov. Each stored notice keeps its source link so you can always jump to the official record. CaptureCore is not affiliated with or endorsed by SAM.gov or GSA.

Your own entries

Everything else in your workspace is data you enter: your company profile, pipeline decisions, proposals, evidence records, submission checklists, and the receipts you log after submitting in an official portal.

What is deliberately not integrated

GSA eBuy, FedConnect, PIEE, and agency portals do not offer public third-party submission APIs, and CaptureCore does not scrape them, automate logins to them, or impersonate you on them. For those channels, CaptureCore provides handoff support only: portal-specific checklists, deep links to the official destination, and receipt logging after you submit there yourself.

Freshness and accuracy

Ingested data reflects the most recent import and can lag the official source; amendments, corrections, and cancellations appear on the official notice first. Always verify deadlines and requirements against the official solicitation before acting — the official record controls, without exception.
