GovEagle Alternative

CLEATUS — the agentic AI alternative to GovEagle™

If you are evaluating GovEagle for AI proposal writing, see how CLEATUS compares on what actually matters — true agentic AI that calls tools and executes multi-step work, opportunity discovery, AI Workflows, full proposal writing, and transparent published pricing.


At a glance

A side-by-side read on the dimensions buyers most often ask us about. Each row about GovEagle traces back to a public source — see the disclosure below.

DimensionCLEATUSGovEagle
Core positioningAI-first GovCon platform — agentic opportunity discovery, capture, proposal writing, and workflow automation in one product, self-serve with published pricing"Proposal and capture AI your team will actually use," built to fit the B&P lifecycle you already run across five phases from opportunity identification through delivery, sold demo-first with no published price[1]
AI contract breakdown (pre-shredding)Every matched opportunity arrives pre-shredded, before anyone opens it: CLEATUS reads every page of the package (base solicitation, amendments, attachments, exhibits) and breaks it into one standardized Contract Breakdown following the Uniform Contract Format: scope, requirements, deliverables, deadlines, pricing, and evaluation criteria. That breakdown is what your PWIN score is computed against, so the score reads Sections C, H, K, L, and M plus the attachments instead of a title, a NAICS code, and a set-aside. When a package has not been read, the card says so and the confidence drops rather than the model filling the gap. One format across federal, state, and local also means search works at the requirement and scope-of-work level, and agent answers stay grounded in structured dataReal shredding, applied later in the process. Upload the RFP and GovEagle "reads the full package," runs automated "shall" extraction across attachments, organizes requirements by section, surfaces what evaluators score, and flags conflicts and ambiguous language before writing. That happens when you start a proposal, not on every opportunity as it arrives, so nothing computes a fit score against the parsed package first[2]
Parallel research subagentsAsk for real research and the agent hands the job to subagents: separate AI researchers, each with its own context and its own 21-tool research catalog covering contracts, solicitation documents, award history, agencies, contracting officers, and the web. Up to three run at the same time on independent tasks. Each one is a live line in the chat you can open to read the exact task it was given and every search it makes, and you can stop it mid-run. Their tool traffic never enters your conversation, so three investigations come back folded into one answer instead of a wall of raw results. Included from DATA + AINo AI research agent. The word "agent" appears nowhere in GovEagle’s captured marketing; the platform is a shared workspace that carries pursuit context between teams[3]
Getting started7-day free trial — sign up at /get-started and start running real workflows the same hourDemo-first. Every CTA on the marketing site routes to "Book a demo," with no advertised free trial, though it promises go-live in one week without process changes[4]
Pricing transparencyPublished self-serve pricing: $78/mo DATA + AI (annual billing); DATA + AI + Automations is sales-led. See /pricingPricing not published. Prospects must book a demo to receive a quote[4]
AI proposal writingAI Proposal Writer opens every bid with a Proposal Plan built from your solicitation, checks steps off as the work lands, reconciles the plan when an amendment posts, and drafts multi-volume proposals with compliance matrices grounded in the full solicitation and your award history — exported as Word and PDF, included on DATA + AI + Automations"RFx to pink team draft" in 60 minutes: automated "shall" extraction, a compliance matrix mapped to a response outline, evaluator-priority surfacing, risk and ambiguity flagging, drafting in your company voice from past work, then color reviews with comment tracking, all running natively inside Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and SharePoint[2]
End-to-end GovCon operations automationAutomates your GovCon operations end-to-end — multi-step AI automations run capture screening, go/no-go prep, amendment monitoring, award-lead delivery, and team routing on autopilot. Force multiplier for capture and BD teams. Unlimited on DATA + AI + Automations.No visual workflow / automation builder advertised[5]
Claude and ChatGPT integrationOne-click apps published in both official directories, the Claude.ai connector directory and the ChatGPT app store, connectable at /agents/claude and /agents/chatgpt, turn CLEATUS into a tool inside Claude.ai and ChatGPTNo Claude or ChatGPT MCP connectors listed[5]
Opportunity discoveryFederal (SAM.gov), 50,000+ SLED sources, DLA DIBBS, GSA eBuy (OASIS+ and MAS RFQs), SeaPort NxG, PIEE directed solicitations, Grants.gov — with daily AI contract recommendations against your capture profileIt does discover now, on a narrower feed. Phase 1 of its lifecycle is bid match on "SAM.gov, GSA eBuy, and more," with GovWin for opportunity intel. SLED portals, DLA DIBBS, SeaPort NxG, and Grants.gov are not named as sources[6]
Forecasts and pre-RFP signalSignals surface work before it posts: subcontract scopes inside primes, agency procurement forecasts, and AI-predicted recompetes scored for likelihood 12–18 months out, delivered as daily recommendationsAlso forecasts now: recompete identification, agency budget and strategy analysis for greenspace, and pipeline forecasting are all named in Phase 1. No likelihood scoring or subcontract-scope extraction is described[6]
Capture / CRMNative pursuits CRM with Kanban, list, and calendar pipelines, live solicitation amendments, team collaboration, AI workflows, and unlimited pursuits on DATA + AI + AutomationsIt ships a pipeline surface now: opportunity tracking, pursuit qualification, team assignments, and pipeline analytics, plus bi-directional CRM sync with Salesforce, HubSpot, or Technomile. Live solicitation amendment tracking on the pursuit is not advertised[7]
Knowledge managementAI Document Hub auto-references your past performance, capability statements, and resumes inside every proposal and analysis. 100MB on DATA + AI, unlimited on DATA + AI + AutomationsKnowledge Management connects to SharePoint, Google Drive, and your CRM with no migration, keeps the library current as new proposals, resumes, and CPARS updates land, runs semantic search across content types, matches an uploaded RFP to the best past performance per evaluation factor, and cites it inside drafts[8]
Microsoft Word + SharePointWord and PDF export for AI-drafted proposals; document storage in the AI Document Hub. No native Word plug-in or SharePoint syncRuns natively in SharePoint, Word, Excel, and PowerPoint rather than exporting to them. Excel is named for cost volumes, proposal workbooks, and compliance matrices; PowerPoint for pitch decks and capture briefings[9]

When each platform is the right choice

Two real tools. They optimize for different work. Here is where each one shines — straight, not spun.

When GovEagle is the right choice

  • You need a FedRAMP Authorization in hand today, not an equivalency, and you handle CUI, CDI, or ITAR data. GovEagle is FedRAMP Authorized and CMMC L2 with an all-U.S.-persons engineering team, and it deploys to cloud, on-premise, or portable hardware. CLEATUS FedRAMP Moderate Equivalency is expected in Q3 2026, audit pending, and self-hosted deployment is not on the CLEATUS roadmap.
  • Your team lives inside Microsoft and refuses to leave. GovEagle runs natively in SharePoint, Word, Excel, and PowerPoint rather than exporting to them, including cost volumes and compliance matrices built in Excel and capture briefings in PowerPoint.
  • Your pipeline already lives in Salesforce, HubSpot, or Technomile and you want bi-directional sync rather than a new system of record.
  • You want a high-touch partner rather than self-serve software. GovEagle sells hands-on onboarding, go-live in a week without process changes, and a roadmap shaped by customer input.

When CLEATUS is the right choice

  • You want to hand research off, not do it yourself. CLEATUS splits a research-grade question into subagents that run up to three at a time, each with its own context and its own 21-tool research catalog, each one a live line you can open to read every search it makes and stop mid-run, with the reports folded back into a single answer. GovEagle does not advertise an AI agent: the word "agent" appears nowhere in its captured marketing.
  • You want transparent, published pricing and a 7-day free trial — sign up at /get-started and start running real workflows the same hour. GovEagle does not publish pricing on its site; every CTA routes to a sales demo to "begin preparing your quote."
  • You want to automate your GovCon operations end-to-end with AI Workflows — multi-step AI automations that screen opportunities, prep go/no-go briefs, alert on amendments, deliver award leads, and route work to the right person on autopilot, as a force multiplier for your capture and BD team. Unlimited on DATA + AI + Automations.
  • You bid outside the federal core. GovEagle discovers on SAM.gov, GSA eBuy, and GovWin; CLEATUS adds 50,000+ SLED sources, DLA DIBBS, SeaPort NxG, PIEE, and Grants.gov to the same pipeline.
  • You want recompete likelihood scored, not just recompetes listed. Both platforms flag recompetes and forecast; CLEATUS scores expiring contracts for recompete likelihood 12 to 18 months out and surfaces subcontract scopes carved out inside prime solicitations.
  • You want CLEATUS available as a tool inside Claude.ai and ChatGPT via first-party MCP connectors, so the AI assistant your team already uses can read solicitations, draft documents, and update your pipeline.
  • You want the score computed against the actual package, not the cover sheet. CLEATUS pre-shreds every matched opportunity before you see it, and that breakdown is what your automatic PWIN score is computed against: Sections C, H, K, L, and M plus the attachments, rather than a title, a NAICS code, and a set-aside. When a package has not been read, CLEATUS says so on the card and lowers the confidence instead of guessing. GovEagle shreds just as seriously, but when you start a proposal, not on every opportunity as it lands.

Parallel research subagents

CLEATUS

The CLEATUS agent handing one research question to subagents that run at the same time and report back one answer

Some questions are too big for one pass: shred a solicitation and its amendments, work up the incumbent and their award history, map the buying agency and the contracting officers behind it. Ask CLEATUS to research one of those properly and the agent stops answering and starts delegating. It writes a focused task, hands it to a subagent, and that subagent works in its own context with its own 21-tool research catalog: contract search, document outline, read and grep across every file in the solicitation package, semantic and award search, agency, contractor, and contracting-officer lookups, plus live web search and fetch. Up to three subagents run at the same time on independent tasks. Each one appears in the chat as a single live line. Open it and you see the exact task the agent wrote, every search the subagent runs, and its reasoning as it goes, and you can stop it whenever you want. Its tool traffic never enters your conversation, so a run that burns through a hundred searches costs your chat only the length of its report, and three separate investigations come back folded into one answer.

GovEagle™

GovEagle does not advertise an AI agent. The word "agent" appears nowhere on its captured platform, solutions, or blog pages. Its pitch is a shared workspace where call plans, capture work, proposals, and delivery notes stay connected as a pursuit moves forward, which is about continuity between people rather than research you delegate to a machine.[3]

Pre-RFP visibility and recompetes

CLEATUS

CLEATUS daily AI contract recommendations with compliance analysis

CLEATUS finds the opportunities before you write the proposal. Federal coverage spans SAM.gov, DLA DIBBS, GSA eBuy (OASIS+ and MAS RFQs), SeaPort NxG, PIEE directed solicitations, and Grants.gov; SLED coverage spans 50,000+ state, local, and education sources across all 50 states. AI pre-forecasting scores expiring contracts for recompete likelihood 12–18 months out so you can capture incumbents before the RFP drops. Daily AI contract recommendations against your capture profile land in your inbox every morning with compliance analysis attached.

GovEagle™

GovEagle discovers on a narrower feed. Phase 1 of its lifecycle covers bid match on "SAM.gov, GSA eBuy, and more," recompete identification, agency budget and strategy analysis for greenspace, and pipeline forecasting, with GovWin listed for opportunity intel. SLED portals, DLA DIBBS, SeaPort NxG, and Grants.gov are not named as sources, and no likelihood scoring on a predicted recompete is described.[6]

AI proposal writing

CLEATUS

CLEATUS AI Proposal Writer drafting structured proposal volumes

CLEATUS AI Proposal Writer plans before it writes. Every proposal opens with a Proposal Plan built from your specific solicitation, running from "Review the solicitation" through "Format & assemble," with ready-to-send prompts written for each step and a Draft all button that runs the step as one batch. It extracts requirements and evaluation factors into a compliance matrix, drafts structured multi-volume proposals citing your real award history, checks steps off automatically as documents get drafted and compliance gets verified, reconciles the plan when an amendment posts, and exports professionally formatted Word and PDF files. Included on DATA + AI + Automations (sales-led). The agent pulls from your UEI award history and Document Hub so past performance is grounded in your actual record.

GovEagle™

GovEagle ships an AI RFP suite covering Compliance Matrix, Annotated Outline, Compelling Narrative ("compliant content in your style and voice using your past content"), Proposal Review ("bootstrapped with Shipley best practices"), and a Word Add-On for in-document edits. Pricing is not published — every plan is a custom quote after a sales conversation.[2]

Visual workflow automation

CLEATUS

CLEATUS Workflows visual builder with triggers, AI agent steps, and Slack actions

CLEATUS Workflows is a force multiplier for capture and BD teams: a visual canvas with 13 trigger events, 19 addable step types, and 16 distinct actions that runs multi-step GovCon processes on autopilot. Each AI Agent step is its own agent with a model you pick, a scoped tool set, and a structured output schema, so it returns typed fields that later steps branch on instead of a blob of prose. Chain as many as you like, run them in parallel, query contracts, and search your documents, then route with If/Else and Filter. Triggers fire on new recommendations, new opportunities, pipeline changes, pursuits created, updated, or archived, phase moves, amendments, awards, matched custom alerts, schedules, webhooks, or on demand. Actions cover Slack, Microsoft Teams, email, webhooks, in-app notifications, log note, add to or remove from pipeline, change phase, assign member, create task, save document, Google Drive, and SharePoint. A dedicated Start Proposal step launches the full proposal writer inside the pursuit and can wait for the structured bid package to finish before downstream steps read it, run a review, and route the draft. Start from a prebuilt template (including a full Shipley capture pipeline) or describe the automation in plain English and let the platform assemble it. Unlimited on DATA + AI + Automations.

Claude and ChatGPT integration

CLEATUS

CLEATUS surfacing GovCon opportunities inside ChatGPT via the MCP connector

CLEATUS is published as a one-click app in both official directories, the Claude.ai connector directory and the ChatGPT app store. Under the hood these are first-party MCP (Model Context Protocol) connectors, connectable straight from your dashboard with no endpoint URLs or API keys to configure. Once connected, your AI assistant can search opportunities, read solicitations, draft proposal sections, look up contracting officers, and update your pipeline using natural language — without leaving Claude or ChatGPT. Included from the DATA + AI plan.

CLEATUS vs GovEagle FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Both ship AI proposal writing, and that part is genuinely overlapping. The differences are around scope and how you buy. CLEATUS is a full-lifecycle GovCon platform with opportunity discovery, capture, AI Workflows, an AI Proposal Writer, and first-party Claude/ChatGPT MCP connectors, sold self-serve with published pricing. GovEagle covers the same five phases but optimizes for fitting the process and tools you already have: it runs natively inside SharePoint, Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, syncs bi-directionally with Salesforce, HubSpot, or Technomile, is FedRAMP Authorized, and is sold demo-first with no published price.

    Self-described as "Proposal and capture AI your team will actually use," built around fitting the B&P lifecycle a team already runs: "Keep your process, your tools, and your voice. GovEagle fits in around them instead of making your team start over." It advertises a five-phase lifecycle from identifying opportunities through delivery.

  2. [2]
    https://www.goveagle.com/solutions/proposals· captured 2026-08-31

    The proposal product delivers "RFx to pink team draft" in 60 minutes: you upload the RFP, RFQ, or source documents, GovEagle "reads the full package" and runs automated "shall" extraction across attachments, organizes requirements by section and maps them to a response outline, surfaces what evaluators score, flags conflicts and ambiguous language before writing starts, drafts in your company voice from past work and capture intelligence, and runs color reviews with comment tracking and compliance checks.

    The word "agent" appears nowhere on the captured homepage, platform page, the Proposals, Knowledge Management, and Solutioning pages, or the blog index. GovEagle is positioned as a shared workspace that carries pursuit context across BD, capture, proposal, and delivery. No AI research agent, no research runs that go in parallel, and no step-by-step view of an AI research run are advertised.
