Is CLEATUS more expensive than GovEagle?

It's not possible to give a direct head-to-head answer because GovEagle does not publish pricing. CLEATUS publishes $78/mo billed annually ($936/year) for DATA + AI at /pricing; DATA + AI + Automations is sales-led (contact us). GovEagle requires booking a demo to receive a quote. If transparent, self-serve pricing matters to your evaluation, that is the more important difference than the dollar amount.

Does GovEagle cover opportunity discovery?

No — GovEagle is positioned around responding to RFPs you already have ("RFx to Pink Team in 60 Minutes Not 60 Hours"). Its platform, solutions, and integrations pages do not advertise opportunity discovery / search across SAM.gov, SLED, DLA DIBBS, GSA eBuy, SeaPort NxG, or Grants.gov, daily AI contract recommendations, or recompete forecasting. CLEATUS aggregates federal opportunities from SAM.gov plus 50,000+ state, local, and education (SLED) sources across all 50 states, alongside DLA DIBBS, GSA eBuy (OASIS+ and MAS RFQs), SeaPort NxG task orders, PIEE directed solicitations, and federal grants, with daily AI contract recommendations against your capture profile.

Does GovEagle have anything CLEATUS doesn't?

Yes — there are real gaps to acknowledge. GovEagle is FedRAMP Moderate Equivalent (NIST 800-53) and NIST 800-171 compliant, with GovEagle Cloud running on FedRAMP High infrastructure plus VPC / on-prem and airgapped deployment options. CLEATUS FedRAMP Moderate Equivalency is expected in Q3 2026, audit pending, and self-hosted / airgapped deployment is not on the CLEATUS roadmap. GovEagle also ships a native Microsoft Word Add-On for in-document proposal edits and prebuilt SharePoint connectors for commercial, GCC, and GCC High tenants. If FedRAMP, airgapped deployment, or native Word/SharePoint is in scope for what you're buying, GovEagle is the stronger fit.

Name: CLEATUS
Brand: CLEATUS

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.

Dimension	CLEATUS	GovEagle
Core positioning	AI-first GovCon platform — agentic opportunity discovery, capture, proposal writing, and workflow automation in one product, self-serve with published pricing	AI-based RFP Automation Suite — proposal writing, knowledge management, and solutioning, sold demo-first with custom quotes[1]
AI contract breakdown (pre-shredding)	Every matched opportunity arrives pre-shredded: 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. One format across federal, state, and local means every contract reads the same way, search works at the requirement and scope-of-work level, matching and analysis draw on structured data rather than raw PDFs, and agent answers stay grounded with less hallucination risk	The Compliance Matrix feature shreds solicitation documents for proposal instructions, evaluation criteria, and task areas after you load an RFP into the suite; a standardized automatic breakdown of inbound opportunities before engagement is not advertised[2]
Getting started	7-day free trial — sign up at /get-started and start running real workflows the same hour	Demo-first. Every CTA on the marketing site routes to "Book a Demo" — no advertised free trial[3]
Pricing transparency	Published self-serve pricing: $78/mo DATA + AI (annual billing); DATA + AI + Automations is sales-led. See /pricing	Pricing not published. Prospects must book a demo to receive a quote[3]
AI proposal writing	AI 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	AI RFP suite with Compliance Matrix, Annotated Outline, Compelling Narrative, Proposal Review (Shipley-based), and a Microsoft Word Add-On for in-document edits[2]

Claude and ChatGPT integration	One-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 ChatGPT	No Claude or ChatGPT MCP connectors listed[4]
Opportunity discovery	Federal (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 profile	No opportunity discovery product. GovEagle is positioned around responding to RFPs you already have, not finding new ones[5]
Forecasts and pre-RFP signal	Signals 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 recommendations	No forecasted opportunities or recompete signal advertised[5]

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 FedRAMP Moderate Equivalent (NIST 800-53) or NIST 800-171 compliance posture in place today, or you need to deploy the platform inside your own cloud, on-prem, or an airgapped environment — CLEATUS FedRAMP Moderate Equivalency is expected in Q3 2026, audit pending, and self-hosted / airgapped deployment is not on the CLEATUS roadmap.
You already have a strong opportunity-discovery process (or use a separate market-intel tool) and only need an AI proposal-writing layer on top of RFPs your team has already identified.
You live inside Microsoft Word and SharePoint (especially GCC or GCC High), and want the proposal-writing surface to be a native Word add-in with prebuilt connectors to your tenants rather than a web app that exports to Word.
You want a high-touch, hands-on onboarding model — a dedicated Teams channel for immediate access and weekly office hours rather than self-serve.

When CLEATUS is the right choice

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 want one platform that covers the full lifecycle: opportunity discovery, capture, and proposal writing — not just an AI proposal layer that depends on RFPs you found elsewhere.
You want forecasted opportunities and AI pre-forecasting that scores expiring contracts for recompete likelihood 12–18 months out, alongside an active-opportunity feed.
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 bid across federal, SLED, DLA DIBBS, GSA eBuy, SeaPort NxG, PIEE, and grants and want all of it in one AI-aware pipeline.
Every opportunity you open is already analyzed. CLEATUS pre-shreds each matched opportunity, reading every page of the document package and breaking it into the same standardized Contract Breakdown. That structure makes matches and analysis richer, lets you search contracts by scope of work and specific requirements, keeps agent answers grounded in structured data with less hallucination risk, and means every contract you evaluate reads the same way.

Feature by feature

Four places where the platforms diverge most. Each row shows what CLEATUS ships on the left and how GovEagle addresses (or doesn't address) the same need on the right.

Pre-RFP visibility and recompetes

CLEATUS

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 is positioned around responding to RFPs you already have — "RFx to Pink Team in 60 Minutes Not 60 Hours." Public marketing does not advertise opportunity discovery / search across SAM.gov, SLED, DLA DIBBS, GSA eBuy, SeaPort NxG, or Grants.gov, daily AI contract recommendations, or recompete forecasting.[5]

AI proposal writing

CLEATUS

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.

Learn more →

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 is a force multiplier for capture and BD teams: a visual canvas with 13 trigger events, 18 addable step types, and 15 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.

GovEagle™

No visual workflow / automation builder advertised.[4]

Claude and ChatGPT integration

CLEATUS

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.

GovEagle™

No Claude or ChatGPT MCP connectors listed.[4]

CLEATUS vs GovEagle FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

GovEagle is an AI RFP automation suite focused on the proposal-response phase — Compliance Matrix, Annotated Outline, Compelling Narrative, Proposal Review, and a Word Add-On — sold demo-first with custom quotes, and depends on you finding the RFP elsewhere first.
