Case boundary

Federal contracting and critical-minerals intelligence system with scheduled ingest, entity graphs, source-cited market data, and scoring workflows.

Claim boundary

Publicly cite system design and source-backed methodology, not confidential capture outcomes.

Raintree Minerals combines federal procurement intelligence with critical-minerals market research.

The product is built for capture research: find relevant opportunities, understand the entities around them, and connect mineral-market claims back to sources.

System

  • SAM.gov, USAspending, COMTRADE, and watchlist ingest
  • Entity graph for agencies, vendors, awards, opportunities, and mineral supply chains
  • Source-cited mineral catalog with pricing, demand, supply-risk, and policy signals
  • Market-opportunity score across market, supply, demand, policy, whitespace, and timing

Runtime

  • Postgres for canonical state and Cloudflare D1 for time-series and hot-path reads
  • Scheduled opportunity triage, entity-drift sweeps, competitor-award scans, and taxonomy refreshes
  • Bun CLI agents for commodity-specific research workflows
  • Backtested federal triage gates before human review

Proof

  • Market claims require attached source citations
  • Entity hierarchy uses closure tables for ancestor and descendant traversal
  • Concentration metrics track competitive density across entity and award networks
  • Opportunity scoring is decomposed into explicit component signals
