ContraVault AI
Tender analysis and bid risk review for AEC/EPC teams
What is ContraVault AI?
ContraVault AI is a cloud platform for tender and RFP analysis, risk review, clarification drafting, and proposal generation. Built for AEC/EPC contractors, infrastructure teams, and enterprise bid teams that need to review large multi-document bid packages, identify risks, and produce compliant bid-ready outputs; the vendor says typical analysis takes 5–15 minutes and large multi-volume packages up to 30 minutes.
How to evaluate this tool
Start with the bid package rather than an answer library. For construction and infrastructure work, the important evaluation is whether risks, conflicting clauses, and clarifications remain traceable across documents.
Check during a demo: Use a multi-volume tender with an amendment. Check page references, cross-document contradictions, mandatory forms, and the handoff from analysis to proposal drafting.

Overview
ContraVault AI is a cloud platform for tender and RFP analysis, risk review, clarification drafting, and proposal generation. It is designed primarily for AEC/EPC contractors, infrastructure, energy, and enterprise bid teams processing large, multi-document bid packages.
Its current positioning spans three related motions: bid intelligence, takeoff and estimation, and vendor sourcing. Within RFP response, the workflow remains analysis-first: upload the bid package, extract requirements, surface clause-level risks and contradictions, generate clarifications, and draft proposal sections with source references.
Founded in 2024 and headquartered in Bengaluru, India, ContraVault AI raised a $600,000 seed round led by Titan Capital in May 2025.
Key Features
- Go/No-Go Analysis: Supports early qualification decisions using AI analysis of tender requirements and risks.
- AI RFP Synopsis: Summarizes complex, multi-volume bid packages.
- Risk and Contradiction Detection: Flags contractual risk, compliance gaps, and conflicts across documents.
- Pre-Bid Clarifications: Generates referenced RFI and clarification questions.
- Proposal Writing Suite: Drafts and reuses proposal content from tender requirements and company material.
- Forms Extraction and Auto-Fill: Available from the Professional tier.
- Collaboration: Shared workspaces, role-based access, comments, tasks, and review workflows.
- Live Tender Discovery: A separate free service aggregates and shortlists opportunities from 200+ Indian tender portals.
Integrations
The current pricing matrix offers CLM, CRM, DMS, and e-procurement integrations as a Starter add-on and includes them in Professional and Enterprise. The homepage specifically names Procore, Autodesk Construction Cloud, PlanGrid, and Microsoft Project. API access is a Starter add-on and included in higher tiers; public API documentation was not found.
Security & Compliance
ContraVault states that it is SOC 2 Type II certified and holds ISO 9001:2015, ISO 27001:2022, ISO 27017:2015, and ISO 27018:2019 certifications. Its privacy page documents AES-256 encryption at rest, TLS 1.2 or higher in transit, custom AWS KMS keys rotated every 15 days, access logging and monitoring, role-based controls, daily/weekly/monthly backups, and deletion within 30 days after termination. GDPR is recorded as a compliance claim rather than a certification. SSO via SAML/OIDC is a Starter add-on and included in Professional and Enterprise; public SCIM support was not found.
Pricing
Starter, Professional, and Enterprise plans are shown publicly, but dollar prices and billing units are not disclosed. The former $39, $59, and $99 per-RFP packs are no longer present on the official pricing page and have been removed from this profile. Live Tenders is promoted separately as free forever; that does not establish a free tier for the core bid-analysis platform.
Best For
ContraVault AI is best suited to AEC/EPC, infrastructure, construction, energy, and government-contracting teams that need go/no-go analysis and clause-level risk review before committing to a bid.
Considerations
Pricing requires a sales conversation, public API documentation is absent, and the product's construction-heavy positioning may be less suitable for general-purpose SaaS questionnaire teams.

No public dollar prices or billing units were shown on 2026-08-29. Separate Live Tenders discovery is advertised as free forever, but the core bid-analysis platform does not document a free tier.
