Questions

What is Rednet?

A remote MCP server that gives an AI assistant public tenders, past contract awards, market heat, grants, company records and privacy-preserving web search, from one account.

Which assistants work with it?

Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and any client that speaks the Model Context Protocol. Sign in with OAuth from a Connect button, or with an API key from the command line.

Where does the data come from?

TED and data.europa.eu, Find a Tender, Contracts Finder, BOAMP, TenderNed, the World Bank, Grants.gov and Companies House. All openly licensed; every row names its source and licence.

How are tenders scored?

Your description of what you sell is matched to each notice in a multilingual embedding space, then named factors move the score: a standing system open to join, licences in scope, a deadline too close, resale of a named vendor. The reasons are quoted from the notice, never generated.

Does Rednet keep my questions?

Queries are kept only as long as needed to run and bill the service, are never sold or shared, and are never used to train a model. The website sets no cookies.

What does it cost?

Solo EUR 99 a month for one key, Team EUR 249 a month for up to five keys. Market reports are quoted per job.
