Once you’re logged in there are three tabs — Search, Dashboard, and Profile. Here’s what each one is for and how they fit together.
Search — find new work
Search is where new work comes in. Type what you do in plain English and ContractRadar looks across federal, state, and local contracts — it matches on meaning, not just words. From here you can save a search to re-run in one click, turn on email alerts so new matches find you, and save a contract to your dashboard.
Dashboard — your matches and pipeline
Dashboard (titled Your Matches) is home base for everything you’re working. New contracts that match your alerting saved searches collect here, alongside any contracts you’ve saved yourself. You can move bids through stages, switch between a list and a calendar view, filter by state, stage, score, or date, and export deadlines and CSV. When new matches land, the dot on the Dashboard tab points you here.
Profile — your account
Profile is your account: your subscription and plan, contact details, the email-notifications toggle, your password, and account deletion.
It’s not where you set up matching. To start getting matches, go to Search, save a search, and turn on its alerts — that’s what fills your dashboard each day.
