Project Intelligence Starter Users Access to Modernized Search
May 19, 2025
As a Project Intelligence Starter user, you now have access to Modernized Search, which helps you find project and company information faster and more easily. With simple keyword search and helpful filters, getting the info you need takes less time and effort.
With Modernized Search, results are delivered faster, so you can find what you need quickly and easily.
Better tools now include:
Improved Filters
-
New Date Filters: New date filters let you narrow your search by picking specific dates, like the bid date, pre-bid meeting date, or when the project was added. You can also choose time ranges like the past 7 or 30 days.
- Custom Date Ranges: You can also choose custom date ranges. Use the calendar or enter dates yourself to narrow your search to the exact timeframe you need.
-
City Radius: When you filter by location, you can now search around a city instead of just using a zip code. If your business is in a big city, this makes it easier to find projects nearby.
New Grouping Options: Project Stage and Project Category are now grouped into simpler sections. You can pick several related options with just one click, so it’s faster and easier to find what you’re looking for—no more scrolling through long lists.
In addition to these improvements, some generic filter names have been changed.
Smarter Keyword Search
- Default Smart Search: When you search, your results will also include similar words, so you get more helpful matches. This is known as a “smart” search (see screenshot below)
-
If you're looking for results to reflect the exact version of the word you type in the search bar, put the word into quotation marks (i.e. “flooring” will not display results for projects containing “floor” or “floors”).
-
This will be referred to as an “exact” search.
Our Saved Search feature has also been streamlined.

Right now, Modernized Search is only available for Starter users, but it will be rolled out to other user types throughout June.
