Could you build this?
Partial The search UI, profiles, and alerts are standard CRUD and email work, and several sources (SAM.gov, TED, World Bank) have public APIs. Covering 70 countries with many messy, inconsistent portals and getting good business-to-tender matching is the hard part.
What it would actually take: Build a scheduled ingestion pipeline with per-source adapters (APIs where available, scrapers elsewhere), normalize into a common tender schema, and store it in Postgres with full-text search. Matching needs embeddings or classification over tender text plus per-source maintenance as portals change. The hard parts are source coverage and upkeep across jurisdictions, plus match quality, which needs labeled feedback data to tune.
