Documentation read on 7 October 2026
The product compared is Haavi (haavi.ai) , Finnish AI platform to find, analyse and draft bids for public tenders, built around Hilma and Finnish procurement.
Bid / no-bid support belongs to Stage B when enabled; your team keeps the decision.
Our verdict · For a defence, security or industrial supplier bidding on public tenders worldwide
Viglia is the more direct choice when your catalogue must drive qualification, when you need more than 200 official sources in more than 60 countries in one queue, from NSPA, NCIA, BOAMP and TED to Hilma, SAM.gov and CanadaBuys, and when every finding must cite its source document. Haavi keeps the edge for bidders who rely on Finnish e-tendering platforms such as Tarjouspalvelu and who want an assistant that drafts the bid.
Choose Viglia if
- your products are specific and you want each lot matched to your catalogue, capabilities and exclusions;
- your buyers include NSPA or NCIA, French buyers on BOAMP, EU buyers on TED or public buyers in other countries, from SAM.gov in the US to CanadaBuys;
- you need every requirement, date and clause cited to its source document, scanned pages included;
- you want an assisted setup, with your first selections reviewed together.
Keep Haavi if
- you depend on Finnish e-tendering platforms such as Tarjouspalvelu, beyond the national Hilma portal, and want guides written for Finnish bidders;
- you want an assistant that produces a first bid draft and fills procurement documents, as Haavi Pro lists.

Viglia's current scope (Stage A + Stage B when enabled)

- Each lot is matched to the products, capabilities and exclusions you document, with one profile, score and decision per brand for multi-brand groups.
- More than 200 official sources in more than 60 countries, across six continents, feed one work queue with a link to every original notice: TED and BOAMP, NATO (NSPA, NCIA), the UN (UNGM), Hilma, SAM.gov and CanadaBuys among them; multilingual notices get translated titles and are analysed in their original language.
- Setup is assisted and your first selections are reviewed with you; then a daily review and digests explain every shortlist, and the bid / no-bid decision stays with your team.
Sourced comparison
Haavi and Viglia compared
The Haavi column only restates what the vendor publishes, or an absence bounded to the pages we read. The Viglia column describes the current commercial scope: Stage A by default and Stage B separately enabled when granted; roadmap items are never presented as available.
| Criterion | Haavi · public evidence | Viglia · current scope | What to check before deciding |
|---|---|---|---|
| Public positioning | AI platform to discover, analyse and win public sector tenders, described as built on the needs of Finnish companies. Haavi home page | Operated monitoring and qualification of public and institutional tenders, specialised in defence, civil security, fire and rescue, with worldwide monitoring. | Decide first what carries most of your public revenue: depth on Finnish e-tendering platforms, or one qualified queue across French, EU, NATO agency and other countries' buyers. |
| Sources | Haavi's terms say its procurement data comes from Hilma, Tarjouspalvelu, TED and other Finnish and international portals, and that individual notices may be missing. Haavi terms of service | More than 200 official sources in more than 60 countries, including TED, BOAMP, NSPA, NCIA, UNGM, Hilma, SAM.gov and CanadaBuys, are monitored within the scope agreed with you, with source-health checks and a completeness audit. | List the portals you cannot miss and ask each provider to confirm them one by one, in writing. |
| NATO and defence | Haavi says it brings PUTU defence notices in Hilma, EU tenders on TED and defence-sector prior information notices into one view, with AI scoring the fit. Haavi NATO supplier guide | Defence is a core sector: NSPA and NCIA notices are monitored alongside TED, BOAMP and the other official sources Viglia follows worldwide. | Ask which NATO agency portals actually feed each tool, and test with recent NSPA or NCIA notices you already know. |
| Matching logic | Searches use your company information and criteria you define; AI compares the tender to your company profile and gives a fit score. Haavi features | Each lot is matched to catalogue products, capabilities and exclusions, with one profile, score and decision per brand for multi-brand groups. | If you sell many products or several brands, test how each tool handles a lot that fits one product line and excludes another. |
| Bid writing | Haavi presents a bid assistant that produces a first version in one click, then iterates with your team. Haavi home page | Viglia prepares the decision upstream: cited tender-document analysis, an exportable compliance matrix and a reasoned bid / no-bid recommendation. | If drafting the response is your main bottleneck, Haavi covers that step; if choosing which tenders to answer is, that is Viglia's ground. |
| Pricing | Haavi lists Starter at €149 and Pro at €249 per month excluding VAT, Enterprise on request, with a 14-day trial and a 30% discount for six months shown on the day we read it. Haavi pricing | Pricing on request, set by the sources, brands and scope of the operated service. | Compare total cost: users, sources, AI usage caps, onboarding effort and the internal time still spent sorting results. |
Two home markets, two different starting points
Haavi describes itself as built on the needs of Finnish companies, and its featured guides are written for Finnish bidders: Hilma, the Procurement Act and national thresholds.
Viglia has France as its home market and monitors worldwide: more than 200 official sources in more than 60 countries, Hilma, BOAMP and TED among them, alongside NATO and UN purchasing portals, with defence, civil security and fire and rescue as its core sectors.
Map where your last twenty relevant tenders were published. If most came from Finnish e-tendering platforms such as Tarjouspalvelu, a Finnish-first tool has a structural head start. If they came from Hilma, BOAMP, TED, NATO agencies or portals outside Europe, test that coverage directly.
Check NATO coverage notice by notice, not tab by tab
Haavi's NATO guide invites readers to register for automatic notifications about NATO and defence procurements that match their profile.
Viglia monitors NSPA and NCIA notices as part of the scope agreed with you, in one work queue with the rest of its more than 200 official sources worldwide, TED, BOAMP and UNGM included.
NATO agency tenders often reach registered suppliers directly or through national channels. Pick five recent NSPA or NCIA opportunities in your field and check whether each tool surfaced them, when, and with which documents.
A fit score is only as useful as its explanation
Haavi says it automatically identifies tender risks, summarises the essential information and keeps track of deadlines.
Every Viglia score and summary cites its sources, and requirements, dates and clauses extracted from tender documents keep a citation to the source document.
Ask both tools to explain a score on a tender you rejected last year. A useful explanation names the requirement that blocks you; a weak one restates the title.
Self-service platform or operated service
Haavi's pricing page lists a 14-day trial with instant setup and no commitment, and a dedicated support person on business days.
Viglia runs the monitoring and qualification as a service: assisted setup, a daily review, alerts and digests that explain the shortlist, and a pipeline your team works from.
Count the hours your team will spend tuning profiles, reviewing matches and maintaining sources. A low subscription with heavy internal effort can cost more than it looks.
Read the AI and data terms before you commit
Haavi's terms say it uses OpenAI GPT models via the Microsoft Azure EU region, that human review of AI content is mandatory, and that its output is not legal advice.
Viglia reads scanned documents with OCR, flags uncertain text, and keeps the bid / no-bid decision with your team: the score is a reasoned recommendation.
For defence work, ask every provider where documents are processed, whether your uploads train any model, and how restricted or export-controlled files must be handled.

FAQ
Is Viglia a direct replacement for Haavi?
For finding and qualifying tenders, yes: both score tenders against what a company sells. Haavi documents a Finnish-first, self-service platform with a bid-drafting assistant; Viglia is an operated service with worldwide monitoring that qualifies against your catalogue, monitors NATO agencies and cites its sources. Viglia does not write responses, so a team that needs drafting help keeps a writing tool alongside it.
Do Haavi and Viglia both cover NATO tenders?
Haavi's pricing page lists EU and NATO procurements and its guides explain NSPA and NCIA. Viglia monitors NSPA and NCIA notices within the agreed scope. Test both on recent NATO notices from your own field.
How should I test a Haavi alternative?
Freeze a catalogue, a list of mandatory sources and a set of known tenders: relevant, irrelevant and borderline. Compare recall, false positives, the quality of each explanation, how amendments are handled and the human review time left.
