Pricing
We don’t price against other software; we price against what one contract is worth to you. Bidding already costs 1–3% of contract value — £5,000–£15,000 of effort every time, win or lose. DefenceLens makes sure that money is only ever spent on tenders you can actually win. Stop one doomed bid and we’ve paid for ourselves; win one extra contract and the return is twenty-five times the subscription.

Per company, not per seat
Intelligence is only useful if your whole team sees it. Each tier includes a seat allowance rather than per-user pricing that punishes sharing.
