Stotles alternatives: UK tender tools and prices compared
Stotles is a public sector sales platform with a free tier and paid plans above it. If you mainly want the tenders worth bidding for and the contracts coming up for renewal, rather than a sales platform, these are the other options, with what each one says it costs.
Why people look
Why look beyond Stotles
- Stotles is aimed at business development and account-based selling more than at finding and bidding for tenders.
- Its free tier is useful for a look around; expiring-contract alerts start on the paid Basic plan, and the fuller plans cost more again.
- If finding and bidding is the job, a tool built for that may cost less and do it more directly.

Fair to say
When Stotles is the better choice
- You sell to named public sector accounts and want buyer contacts, spend records and pre-tender signals in a sales workflow.
- Your team works from a CRM and wants public sector data alongside it, rather than a daily list of tenders.
