Document review for opportunity qualification
A tender document should not be treated as a blob of text. BidBlender is intended to use uploaded documents to improve opportunity context, surface missing evidence, and anchor strategy in the actual requirements being asked.
Upload into chat
The current product direction supports document upload directly into the chat workflow so users can ask bid/no-bid questions without leaving the decision surface.
Compare against organisational evidence
The point is not merely extraction. The document should be compared against known capabilities, certifications, delivery history, and prior wins or losses where relevant.
Improve the opportunity record
Document-derived context should enrich the opportunity detail panel, source summary, decision posture, and associated strategy views.
Preserve honesty
If extraction fails or text is not readable, the system should say so clearly. BidBlender should not pretend it reviewed a document it could not actually access.

Frequently Asked Questions
What document types should the public site mention?
The current product direction already points to support for PDF, DOCX, and text-like formats. The site should explain those clearly and note that scanned documents may require extra handling.
Why is document review commercially important?
Because bid teams often waste effort summarising a document before they have decided whether the opportunity deserves serious pursuit. Document review should improve qualification, not just produce extraction output.
What is the right tone for this feature on the public site?
Specific and honest. The site should explain what is reviewed, how it improves decision quality, and where the system still depends on available readable text and configured context.
What future capability should be hinted at?
Richer extraction, evidence lineage, requirement mapping, and stronger comparison against internal knowledge are all credible future extensions, but they should be described as planned rather than implied as fully live.
