AB
Agentic BuildAI agents that do a business's commercial work unattended.

Find, qualify and respond to tenders, for suppliers with no bid team.

Every weekday, agents read every public tender source in Australia, open the packs that fit one company's products, and put a one-page brief in front of a person: bid, no-bid, or needs a human. On a yes, they build the response on that company's own products. Running unattended since July 2026.

Who it's for

Australian companies that make or supply industrial products: hose, valves, pipe, pumps, conveyor components, wear parts. They sell to miners, contractors, utilities, fire services and ports. Most have a sales team and nobody whose job is the bid, so a tender is found late, answered in a rush, or left alone.

The work arrives from three places, and every supplier is a different mix.

  • The public tender.A notice on a government or utility portal with the tender pack behind it. The only one of the three that can be seen from outside.
  • The project.A mine, a plant or a port expansion, announced long before any pack exists. What comes out is a call list, not a download.
  • The invitation.The private request for quotation a miner, an engineering contractor or a builder sends to a shortlist. Built like a public pack, with a shorter window. For most industrial suppliers this is most of the year's bids.

What the agents do

Three jobs, and a person decides at each gate.

Find

Every source, every weekday

At noon every weekday, agents read every public Australian tender source relevant to the business and file what's new, judged twice: does the product fit the catalog, and is the buyer in the market the company sells into. Every notice is recorded once, so nothing alerts twice, and the near-misses are kept as evidence of the wider market.

Qualify

A one-page brief, and a person decides

When a catch clears both filters, an agent downloads the pack, reads it against the catalog and the company's bid rules, and writes a one-page brief with a recommendation: bid, no-bid, or needs a human. Every claim in it cites a page or says it's unsure. Every brief goes to a person, who answers yes or no with a reason. The reason is kept, and the rules learn from it.

The first live brief was a no. The product fit was real, the approvals and the market were not, and the person declined in a minute. A tool that only ever says yes is a tool nobody trusts.

Respond

A sign-off-ready response

On a yes, the pack becomes a response built on the company's own products: every requirement extracted and cited to its page, the compliance matrix, a crosswalk from each requirement to the product and datasheet that meets it, and a response with every claim cited or left blank for the estimator.

On a 990-page utility pack that came to 502 requirements. Reading a pack like that is a bid team's week; checking a cited crosswalk is a morning. The system compiles. A person reads every page and makes the three calls that stay human: the price, the final product, the signature.

How it works

  • Agents work unattended.The scan fires at noon every weekday whether anyone is thinking about tenders or not. Fetching, reading and matching happen before a person hears about it. The first human touch is the decision.
  • Cited or marked unsure.Every claim an agent makes points at the page it came from. Where the evidence is missing, it says so instead of filling the gap. A confident invention is worse than a blank.
  • A person decides.Four things never leave a person's hands: setting the price, choosing the final product, signing, and lodging or contacting a buyer in the company's name.
  • Built for one business.Each build runs on one company's own catalog, market and bid rules, on a retainer or owned outright. It's not software with a login.

Who

Mark Crosling. I build these systems because I run on them. My own operation runs on an always-on estate of agents: they research overnight, put a brief on my doorstep at seven, and run their scans with their own evaluations and audit trails. The Tender OS is that way of working, built for someone else's business.

Before this I built and operated Haven, a voice AI coaching platform, solo and end to end: the product, the AWS infrastructure, and the content marketing that brought people to it. Underneath sits twenty years of turning technical products into commercial outcomes, which is why these builds aim at revenue rather than demos.

Get in touch

Direct

If tenders are slipping past your business because nobody has time to read for them, or the RFQs that do arrive cost a week each to answer, tell me what you're missing, turning down, or lodging late. I'll tell you whether agents like these would carry it, and no is a real answer here.

Thanks. That's with me, and I'll come back to you.
