How to choose
All of these watch ClinicalTrials.gov. Sites and SMOs want new industry trials with few sites listed; vendors want new registrations by therapeutic area and phase; competitive-intelligence users want field-level changes.
Budget monitoring: Trial Inference ($9.95-49.95) and DataLookout (free / $49). BD-focused: Eichor ($199-299) and TrialWave ($249, built for research sites).
Ask whether a tool reports the sponsor's central contact and the current site roster; that is what makes a registration actionable.
Registrations do not mean a sponsor is seeking vendors; treat them as research leads.
