Intendo is a compilation album by Scottish rock band Bis. It is a collection of non-album tracks plus one new song as a gift to the American market. It was released on both CD and 12" vinyl.

The compilation collects material from the Everybody Thinks That They're Going to Get Theirs, Kandy Pop/Sweet Shop Avengerz, Sweet Shop Avengerz singles as well as Kid Cut, a one-sided 7" single given out at gigs in Glasgow and London, and tracks from the band's splits with Heavenly and Lugworm.

Jason Kaufman writing for Allmusic gave the compilation a positive review, remarking that while the material doesn't break new ground for the band, "if anything, the abbreviated length of this collection hits harder at times than the whole of the slightly long-winded Heroes [The New Transistor Heroes], making their nostalgic dance formula easier to swallow".Robert Christgau was equally positive commenting that Intendo is: "Cute, and not just the way demos are cute".
