How it works · Plain English, every step

A working super,
reading your bid.

Upload a contractor's bid. We score it, flag what is missing, and explain it the way a superintendent would at your kitchen table. Five minutes. $14.99.

  • $14.99 per bid
  • Under 5 minutes
  • PDF + email delivery
  • No contractor kickbacks
[01]Pick your path

Where are you in the project?

Two places to start. Both lead back to a super in your corner.

[02]Bid Check
AI bid analysis · $14.99

Reads every line. Calls out what is missing.

Upload a bid PDF. In under five minutes we send back a report with a Bid Quality Score, line-by-line callouts, red flags, and a list of follow-up questions to ask the contractor before you sign.

What we will not do: tell you which contractor to hire. That is your call. We give you the same critical eye an owner gets on a commercial job.

My contractor wants 50% down. Is that normal?
Tim
50% is high. In California 10% or $1,000 (whichever is less) is the legal cap on the down payment. Anything more and you can push back.

What about a kitchen remodel permit?
Tim
Permit required for anything past cosmetic. Cabinets in the same spot, no permit. Moving plumbing, gas, or load-bearing, yes.
