Costa Rica public tenders, made simple

The government buys every day. We tell you when it buys what you sell.

Firmamento reads everything the Costa Rican government publishes on SICOP and only pings you when something you sell shows up.

Only so we can write to you. Already have an account? You go straight in.

  • Only what's yours

    No endless lists.

  • No 200-page reads

    We sum it up for you.

  • All in one place

    Your team, your dates, your paperwork.

What Firmamento is

The government publishes. We translate it for you.

When the government needs to buy something — chairs, medicine, construction, computers — it posts it on a website called SICOP. Hundreds every week, with very long documents. Firmamento reads them all and only tells you about the ones that matter.

  • We read the documents

    Even the scanned ones you can't search. You get a short summary.

  • We check line by line

    One purchase can ask for 40 different things. If one is yours, you hear about it.

  • We help you answer

    What they want, by when, and who on your team handles it.

Why Firmamento

The difference from doing it by hand

The government publishes, but it doesn't tell you. We do.

Doing it by hand

With Firmamento

Logging in to search every day and hoping you miss nothing.

We do the looking. Only what's yours reaches you.

Opening hundreds of pages just to see whether it's worth it.

A short summary tells you if it's worth your time.

Searching by title and missing what was tucked away inside.

We check line by line, not just the title.

Finding out too late that the rules changed.

We flag what changed and when.

Emails, stray folders and a spreadsheet only its author understands.

Your whole team working in the same place.

Frequently asked questions

What people usually ask about Firmamento

What is Firmamento?

Firmamento (firmamento.ai) is a Costa Rican platform that reads the public tenders on SICOP with artificial intelligence, summarizes them and alerts each company only about the government purchases that match what it sells.

What is SICOP and how does Firmamento relate to it?

SICOP is Costa Rica's Integrated Public Procurement System: the website where the government posts everything it needs to buy. Firmamento does not replace it; it reads it every day, attachments included, and turns it into clear alerts and summaries.

How does Firmamento know what to flag?

From your catalog, a photo or a link to your website, Firmamento builds a profile of what you sell. It then compares every new purchase line by line and only alerts you when there is a match, with the deadline spelled out.

Who is Firmamento for?

Any company or professional that sells to the Costa Rican government or wants to start: from a small business offering supplies to a construction firm competing for public works.

Isn't it the same as searching SICOP by hand?

No. On SICOP you have to log in every day, search by title and open documents hundreds of pages long. Firmamento watches on its own, reads the full documents and only flags what matters, with the summary and requirements already extracted.

How do I get access to Firmamento?

Leave an email on this page. We write back, open the account and show which government purchases match what your company sells.
