Bison Docs reads and writes the same Microsoft file formats your clients and agencies expect. You just stop paying for the subscription.
It's the document tools you already know — proposals, bid sheets, contracts and decks — in your browser, free, and fully compatible with Microsoft files.
Microsoft 365 charges for every person, forever. Bison Docs does the same document work for $0.
It isn't just about price. In 2025 the EU forced Microsoft to unbundle Teams from Office after an antitrust case, and governments started walking away entirely: Denmark's Digitalisation Ministry — along with the cities of Copenhagen and Aarhus — began replacing Microsoft 365 with open formats, and the German state of Schleswig-Holstein is moving roughly 30,000 workstations off Microsoft to cut costs and keep control of their own data.
Bison Docs runs on those same open .docx and .xlsx standards — so you keep working in the formats every agency and client expects, while dropping the subscription. The same move, available to you today, for free.
No tech skills needed. If you can use a smartphone, you're ready.
Create your account in under a minute. No credit card, no Microsoft licence — just your name, email and trade.
Start a fresh Word document or Excel sheet, or upload the .docx and .xlsx files you already have.
Draft proposals, price out bids and send polished PDFs — from any device, wherever the work is.
Bison Docs gives government contractors and the trades the Word and Excel tools they actually use — proposals, bids, estimates and contracts — free, now and always. No subscription, no licence, no catch.
