How it works
01 // Input
Just the company name
No description required. We research the company from public sources — website, SBIR history, SAM.gov records, and funding announcements.
02 // Search
Six live databases
SAM.gov, SBIR.gov, DIU, NDAA budget lines, executive orders, and prime award histories — simultaneously. Every claim verified before delivery.
03 // Deliver
Brief + outreach within hours
3 ranked paths, confidence scores, program offices, warm hooks, and 3 ready-to-send outreach messages. Everything included.
Why it works
// Intelligence
Specific, not generic
Every brief references named solicitation numbers, specific program offices, and dollar amounts. Not a summary of what DoD does — a map of where your company fits right now.
// Verification
Every claim checked
A second AI agent independently checks every dollar figure, solicitation number, and program office name against live databases. Briefs below 70% confidence are held for review.
// Outreach
Ready to send Monday morning
Three outreach messages — one per contract path — with the warm hook named in sentence one and the specific value in sentence two. No generic BD language.
// Access
Built for companies without a BD team
Defense BD consultants charge $15,000–$25,000 per month and take weeks to produce what SignalCordon delivers within hours. This is the on-ramp for companies with real technology and no BD infrastructure.
Who built this
// Founder
SignalCordon was built by someone who noticed that companies with genuine dual-use technology were losing to companies with better BD networks — not better products.
The intelligence gap between a well-funded startup with no government relationships and an established defense contractor is a process problem, not a capability problem. The DoD procurement system is not designed to be navigated without institutional knowledge — but the signals are all public. Every solicitation, every budget line, every program office contact is available if you know where to look and how to connect it to a specific company's capability. SignalCordon is the system that does that connecting — automatically, verifiably, and without requiring a clearance or a defense insider on your team.

Signal of the Week
One specific DoD finding every Monday — a solicitation closing, a program office signal, or a procurement gap. No pitch. Just intelligence.
How it works

Intelligence in 3 steps

Type a company name. Three AI agents research, verify, and write. Your involvement: approve and send.

01 // Input
Type a company name
That is the only input required. No description, no questionnaire, no intake form. SignalCordon identifies the company's technology, market, and DoD relevance entirely from public sources — website, SBIR awards, SAM.gov registration, news, and funding announcements.
02 // Research
Six databases simultaneously
SAM.gov open solicitations, SBIR.gov topics, DIU program announcements, NDAA budget language, executive orders, and prime contractor award histories. Every specific claim verified against live databases before the brief ships.
03 // Deliver
Verified brief within hours
Three ranked contract paths with confidence scores per signal. Specific program offices, primes to approach, warm hooks, and three outreach messages. All included in every paid tier.
Three agents. One pipeline.

Automated research. Your decision to send.

The Analyst researches the company and finds contract paths. The Verifier independently checks every specific claim against live databases. The Operator writes three outreach messages. Nothing ships below 70% confidence.

ANALYST
Researches the company. Finds 3 contract paths. Returns structured brief with signals, program offices, warm hooks, and pitches.
VERIFIER
Independently checks every dollar figure, solicitation number, and program office. Returns a confidence score per signal.
OPERATOR
Writes 3 outreach emails from the verified brief. Warm hook in sentence one. Specific value in sentence two.

Frequently asked questions
What if the brief doesn't lead to a contract?+
The brief delivers verified intelligence and ready-to-send outreach — the result depends on your follow-through and technology fit. We do not guarantee contract awards. If you add the success fee agreement, the $500 advance is non-refundable, but no further fee is owed unless a contract results from a path we identified.
What industries do you cover?+
Any company with dual-use technology relevant to DoD priorities. We cover autonomous systems, biotech, advanced manufacturing, audio and communications, defense software, materials science, directed energy, and supply chain logistics. If your technology solves a real problem, we can find the DoD path to it.
Can I request focus on a specific program office or vehicle?+
Yes. Use the optional notes field in the request form to specify priorities — SOCOM, AFWERX, DIU, a specific SBIR track, or a named program office. We factor your guidance into the brief without limiting the search to only what you specify.
How is this different from searching SAM.gov myself?+
SAM.gov shows you what is posted. SignalCordon finds the connection between what you do and what is posted — then verifies it, ranks it by fit and timeline, and writes the outreach. The gap between "there is a solicitation" and "here is the path, the person to contact, and the exact words to use" is what SignalCordon closes.
What happens after I receive the brief?+
You receive three ready-to-send outreach emails — one per contract path — with the warm hook named in sentence one and your specific value in sentence two. Review, personalize if needed, and send. If you want ongoing monitoring and weekly outreach drafting, the retainer tier covers that.
