FirstBidBid it before you leave the driveway.
Walk the job like you always do: snap photos and talk it through, one voice memo or ten, no time limit, no forms. You get back an itemized estimate priced from your own price book, ready to check, approve, and text to the customer while you’re still parked out front.
Invite-only beta. No credit card, no sales call. Access requests get a reply from a person.
“…tear-off is eighteen and a half squares, single layer… architectural in weathered wood… haul-off included, dumpster in the driveway…”
No forms. No office night.
You already do the walk-through. That’s the whole input.
Walk it.
Snap photos as you go. Hold the mic and talk through the job the way you’d tell your lead: “panel’s in the garage, two-hundred-amp upgrade here.”
Check it.
A couple minutes later you’ve got an itemized draft, priced from your book. Anything the AI couldn’t verify is flagged as an assumption, not buried in a number. Fix what’s wrong, approve it. Nothing goes anywhere until you approve it.
Send it.
Text the customer a clean proposal link. You see when they open it. They tap once to accept. That’s the job, closed from the truck.
Three things nobody else does together.
Photos and voice, read together.
Voice-only tools miss what the site looks like. Form apps miss what you said. Here your notes and photos stay in the order you captured them, so “scratch the stairs” actually scratches the stairs, and quantities come from what’s visible: counted, not invented. Anything uncertain gets an assumption flag you can see.
Your price book, not our averages.
Every line item matches against your items, your units, your numbers first. The AI only suggests a price when nothing of yours fits, and suggested prices are labeled AI price so you can’t miss one. Correct a price once and the app offers to save it back. The book gets sharper with every bid you send.
Send it, then see it.
Approve, and the customer gets a link to a clean proposal: your letterhead, license and insurance, line items, one Accept button. You get a timestamp when they open it Viewed and a name when they accept. No PDF attachments, no “did you get my quote?” phone tag. And when a bid sits quiet, the app nudges you with a follow-up message already drafted in your voice, ready to send. Win the job, and one tap turns the bid into a materials shopping list in supply-house units, bundles and boxes and waste included, ready for the counter.
Draft to done, on one board.
Jobs move down one rail: Draft while you build the bid, Sent while the customer sits with it, then Accepted, In progress, Completed, and Paid when the money lands. If the customer asks for changes, the job is flagged and back in your court, fix the lines and send it out again. Every card shows the last thing that happened and when, so you always know whose move it is.
When a job wraps, archive it. Off the board, never deleted.
The estimate gets you even. The proposal wins the job.
Homeowners compare three bids. Yours shows up first, on their phone, looking like it came from a company that has its act together: license, insurance, itemized scope, a total they can say yes to tonight. When they tap Accept, you know before your competitor has typed theirs up.

An actual proposal layout: sent as a link, prints clean if they want paper.
Free while we’re in beta.
Every beta account runs on Max, free, no card. This is the pricing we plan to launch, published now so there are no surprises later. A generation is one AI-drafted estimate or price-sheet import. Edits, revisions, and sending proposals are always free.
For bidding a couple jobs a week.
Covers a full-time bid load with room to spare.
Never think about the meter again.
Fair use applies.
No annual lock-in, ever. Run out mid-month and you top up with a one-tap pack, never a surprise charge. Referral credits never expire. Fair use on Max means one business's real bidding: if usage ever looks like resale, we'll reach out personally before anything changes.
Things you’re right to ask.
Is my pricing data private?
Yes. Your price book and your job data belong to your company. We don’t share them with other contractors, sell them, or use them to train anything. They’re used for exactly one thing: building your estimates.
What does it cost?
Nothing during the beta. It’s invite-only and free while we prove it earns its keep on real jobs. The pricing we plan to launch is published above, and beta users will get a founding-member deal before anything changes.
Does the AI ever send anything to my customer?
No. That’s enforced in the software, not just promised: a proposal can’t exist until you’ve reviewed and approved the estimate. Every number goes out with your name on it because you signed off on it.
What happens when the AI gets a number wrong?
It will, sometimes, so it’s built to under-claim instead of guess. Shaky quantities are flagged with low confidence, unverifiable stuff becomes a written assumption, and every line shows whether the price came from your book or is an AI suggestion. You’re the estimator. It’s the fast first draft.
Do I need to install anything?
No app store. It runs in your phone’s browser. Add it to your home screen and it works like an app. Photos upload in the background, and retries handle spotty job-site signal.
What trades does it work for?
All of them, including the multi-trade reality most contractors live in. There's no trade to pick and no box to check: the AI reads your price book, your photos, and your own words, so a roofer's bids come out in squares and a deck builder's in linear feet. If you do a bit of everything, it keeps up.
Your next walk-through is the demo.
One job. Photos, a walk-through worth of talking, and see what comes back. If it wouldn’t have won you the bid, tell us why. That’s what the beta is for.
