Contract Alpha is a financial intelligence platform that helps investors find high-growth companies before the market moves. Most tools only track government contracts after they are awarded, but by then, the prices have already shifted. Contract Alpha catches the signals earlier. The platform pulls from four live sources: SAM.gov pre-award solicitations, LinkedIn hiring trends via Bright Data’s SERP API, real-time news sentiment analysis, and yfinance price data. When a company suddenly ramps up technical hiring or appears in a pending government requirement, that’s a signal 60-90 days before announcement. The interface provides several columns including a summary to interpret the score (buy, hold, and avoid), scraped evidence of contracts, and LLM-powered theses. https://contract-alpha-pink.vercel.app/
