Bid discovery

Every public bid in your radius. Scored against your trades. Every morning.

The scan runs overnight across DOT lettings, county and city RFPs, ADEM public notices, USACE, SAM.gov, and per-county news feeds. You get a short list the next morning — not a firehose. Usually three to ten items worth a look.

  • Sole-bidder situations flagged so you can chase the ones with no competition
  • Deadline colors — red today, yellow this week, blue later
  • Trade-aware scoring: an electrical sub sees electrical, a paver sees paving
  • Named sources — not a "500+" marketing number

  • Searchable price database by material, county, and trade
  • 12-month trend charts on every category
  • Paste a scope, get an AI ballpark backed by actual public prices
  • Planning-level, not a bid — but honest, not made up

Trend suggests flat-to-volatile pricing. Wide bid-to-bid variability likely driven by mix specs, haul distance, and liquid asphalt cement cost. Budget the mid-$150s for the next Baldwin County job.

No per-seat pricing. No annual contract. The competition charges $750-$1,500 a month for the same 5-person shop and asks you to sign for a year. We don't.

Being honest is a feature

Common questions. Straight answers.

Does it work outside the Gulf Coast?
Yes for federal opportunities (SAM.gov) — no for local ones. The 130+ sources are focused on AL, MS, FL, and LA today. If you tell us a new region you'd pay for, we'll add it.
Do you auto-bid or auto-submit anything on my behalf?
No. We surface opportunities and give you the market context to bid them. You still bid the job.
Do you do line-item takeoff from drawings?
Not yet — it's on the roadmap. The AI ballpark from a written scope is planning-level, not a priced bid. For the actual takeoff you'll still use your normal tool.
How does the trial work?
14 days free. No credit card at signup. If you don't like it, do nothing — the account just stops. If you love it, add a card and keep going month-to-month. Cancel any time.
Do you integrate with Procore, Bluebeam, or Sage?
Not yet. If it's a dealbreaker, tell us which one and we'll get it on the roadmap.
Is there a mobile app?
Not yet. The web workspace is mobile-friendly. Native iOS/Android come after we hit critical mass on the desktop side.
Can multiple people on my team log in?
One login per shop today. Team collaboration is on the roadmap — but the daily briefing email can be forwarded to anyone you want.

Every morning, before your coffee. Every bid worth chasing.
