Frequently asked questions
How much does Govly cost?
Govly has a permanently free plan that gives access to public solicitations from the past 30 days, recent federal award data and full search and filtering. Paid enterprise plans, which add private contract vehicles (SEWP, CIO-SP and others), teaming tools and AI features, are quoted rather than published. Payment is by ACH or credit card with flexible payment frequency, and Govly refunds the prorated amount for the current period if you are unhappy.
How quickly will our team get value from Govly?
The free plan is self-serve signup with immediate access to the past 30 days of public solicitations, so a team can be searching within days. Vendors report an adjustment period of roughly a week for daily users. Enterprise rollout adds private contract vehicles, teaming workspaces and AI research tools, so allow about two weeks to fully adopt the capture workflow.
Does Govly integrate with our CRM and other tools?
Govly states direct integrations with Salesforce (SFDC) and Unanet, with more planned, and offers an API so customers can connect the CRM of their choice. Govly also supports MCP clients and connected apps such as ChatGPT, Claude and Cursor, returning only the fields needed for the requested action.
Is Govly secure and compliant?
Govly's public FAQ states the company is SOC 2 compliant, and its privacy policy says personal data is stored and processed on cloud infrastructure in the United States with AI inference also performed in the US. No dedicated trust or security page was available in the sources reviewed, so request the current SOC 2 report and security documentation during evaluation.
Does Govly use our data to train AI models?
No, per Govly's privacy policy. It states that Govly does not use your content or connector data to train AI models, and that the AI providers Govly uses to process content are contractually prohibited from using it to train theirs. AI request metadata is retained for 180 days, and gateway responses may be cached for up to 10 minutes.
Who inside a vendor organization uses Govly?
Govly is used by capture and business development teams, federal account executives, sales support and bid-board reviewers, program and contracts managers, and executives at primes, OEMs, distributors, VARs and system integrators selling to U.S. Federal and SLED markets. Customers report using it as market intelligence to decide where to bid, not just as a bid-board viewer.
