About TEXFY

TEXFY helps small and medium-sized businesses in Switzerland find the public tenders that fit them and miss no deadline.

What we do

Public contracts are attractive for many businesses, but searching takes time: reading publications, checking deadlines, getting documents. We gather the open tenders, check them against your business profile and show the key details on one page.

Whether you submit a bid is your decision. Bids go to the contracting authority, by the route the tender names.

Our principles

  • Nothing made up

    What we show comes from the publication. If something is missing, it says so.

  • Reasons instead of percentages

    The fit says what matches and what you should check, instead of giving a number.

  • The official source remains authoritative

    Every tender links to its publication on simap.ch, on TED, in the BOAMP, on the ANAC platform, in the Bekanntmachungsservice or at the contracting authority.

  • AI always marked

    Wherever a language model is involved, this is clearly marked and backed by quotes from the publication.

Why ARTIO Mining GmbH?

TEXFY is operated by ARTIO Mining GmbH of Gossau ZH, a Swiss IT company founded in 2022. The word «Mining» in the company name stands for IT services and infrastructure for mining hardware, which the commercial register lists as part of the company's purpose. TEXFY has nothing to do with the mining industry or raw materials: the company develops and runs the service itself and is the contracting party of all customers.
