At a glance
Here is where 1Lookup wins against GovWin IQ, and where GovWin IQ still wins.
Both can tell you what a company has been awarded. Deltek's GovWin IQ is an opportunity intelligence application: analysts track opportunities before they are posted, with forecasts, pursuit tools and federal, state and local, and Canadian packages. 1Lookup answers one question per call from a company name or a UEI: whether the company holds federal contracts, how many dollars it was awarded over the last three federal fiscal years, how many awards that is, which agencies paid it and in which industries, with the price printed and billed from one shared credit balance only when the company has federal awards.
- A price you can read: the rate card is printed, a lookup is billed in credits, and there is no demo to book before you know what it costs
- A name that fits several companies, a company with no contract dollars in the window, a name nobody holds and a source outage cost nothing, and a CSV with a company column returns one row per company
- One API call returns the finished record, with the right registration chosen, the parent company named and up to five candidates listed when the name is ambiguous
- The same key and balance also pay for phone, email and IP validation, so a vendor or lead check is one API
What it costs
From $6.00
per 1,000 contractor lookups; $14.85 on Starter
- Analyst-validated intelligence. Deltek says '150+ market analysts' work directly with government sources, and its FAQ says GovWin IQ draws on '50,000+ sources to track 95% of published public sector spending across the U.S. and Canada'.
- Opportunities long before they are posted: the product page says that on average 75% of active analyst-tracked opportunities are in the forecast or pre-RFP stage, and the federal page says '75% of leads posted before they hit SAM.gov on average'.
- A broad federal feature list that includes contract awards, task and delivery order awards, other transactional authority awards, subcontracting awards, GSA schedules, budgets, company profiles, agency profiles and org charts.
- Pursuit tools around the data: a fit score, smart summaries and a chat assistant (Dela AI), an agency comparison tool and an activity tracker.

Short answer
GovWin IQ is Deltek's opportunity intelligence application, sold in packages by market with no price printed: a visitor is led to a contact form and a demo request. 1Lookup's Federal Contractor Lookup returns one company's contract dollars, award count, agencies and industries for 3 credits, about $0.015 on Starter, only when it has federal awards.
What replaces what
Here is which 1Lookup product matches each GovWin IQ job.

A real result
This is what one 1Lookup result looks like.
Send a name or a UEI
POST a company name of 2 to 150 characters, or the 12-character UEI. A UEI wins when both are sent, and a malformed entry is refused with a clear error and costs nothing.
We find the one company and read its awards
We search the federal government's public spending database, choose the one registration that clearly fits, and total its contract awards over FY2024 to FY2026. If several companies fit, we list up to five and stop there.
Get the record, flat and structured
The dollars, award count, agencies and industries arrive in one JSON payload. A company with contract awards bills 3 credits, and every other answer bills nothing.

Questions
People ask these questions before they switch from GovWin IQ.
What is GovWin IQ used for?
Finding and winning government opportunities early. Deltek says 150+ market analysts work directly with government sources, and its product page says that on average 75% of active analyst-tracked opportunities are in the forecast or pre-RFP stage. The federal feature list includes contract awards, task and delivery order awards, subcontracting awards, GSA schedules, budgets, company profiles, agency profiles and org charts.
How does GovWin IQ pricing work?
Checked October 2026: Deltek prints no price for GovWin IQ. It sells subscription packages for U.S. federal, state and local, and Canadian markets, and the product pages lead a visitor to a form headed 'Try GovWin IQ Risk Free' that says 'Connect with our team', plus a demo request. What a package costs depends on a conversation with a salesperson.
How much does 1Lookup charge for a contractor check?
3 credits per company with federal awards, free when the company has no federal awards. On the Starter plan ($99 a month for 20,000 credits) a company is about $0.015, which covers 6,666 companies a month and is $14.85 per 1,000. At the Enterprise end of the rate card it is about $0.006. The price is printed on the rate card, so it can be read before any call with a salesperson.
What does GovWin IQ return on a company, and what does 1Lookup return?
GovWin IQ is a web application for people who track and pursue opportunities, with company profiles, award records, alerts, sharing and export. 1Lookup returns a finished summary through an API: the contract dollars over the last three completed federal fiscal years with the window named, the number of contract awards, the top five agencies and the top five industries with their dollars, the parent, the state and whether the company is a small business.
Does GovWin IQ have an API?
The pages read describe a web application with alerts, sharing and export, and list no API or data feed, so whether one is offered is a question for Deltek's team. 1Lookup is one POST per company with a company name or a UEI, and each answer is one finished record billed in credits.
Can I try GovWin IQ before paying?
The product pages offer 'Try GovWin IQ Risk Free', which leads to a form and a conversation with Deltek's team, and print no trial length or terms. 1Lookup starts with a 7-day free trial that you start yourself.
How is the data in each source made?
Deltek says GovWin IQ draws on 50,000+ sources and that its analysts validate the intelligence. 1Lookup does no analyst curation: it reads the federal government's public spending database when you ask and returns the contract record of the one company it identifies. A repeat lookup of the same input by the same user within one day is answered from the cache at no charge.
Which registration does 1Lookup pick when a company has several?
Federal records often hold the same business more than once: a parent, its children and look-alike names. 1Lookup takes the one that clearly leads, such as an exact name or an exact UEI. If several companies fit, it returns up to five of them with their UEI and state, so you can look again with the UEI, and it charges nothing for that answer.
Where does GovWin IQ beat 1Lookup?
On foresight and human work. GovWin IQ tracks opportunities before they are posted, says 75% of leads are posted before they hit SAM.gov on average, and adds forecasts, budgets, org charts, a fit score and a chat assistant, with analysts behind it. 1Lookup reports what a company has already been awarded and does not search opportunities.
What is the best GovWin IQ alternative?
If you need analysts watching the pipeline before opportunities are posted, GovWin IQ is built for that, and HigherGov and GovTribe are the plans with printed prices. If you want one company's contract dollars, awards, agencies and industries as a single API call at a price you can read, 1Lookup's Federal Contractor Lookup bills 3 credits only when the company has federal awards.
Is GovWin IQ worth it in 2026?
If a capture team lives in the pipeline and wants analysts, forecasts and pursuit tools in one place, ask Deltek for a quote and judge it against one contract won. If the only job is to check whether a company really holds federal contracts, compare the per-company price of 1Lookup with a platform you would buy for that one job.
