We Know What Keeps You Up at Night

The best products don't just sell features; they remove fear. These are the worries contractors carry, and how we answer them.

We can't bid enough work to grow.

Too many bids, not enough time. Your estimators are strategists; not data-entry clerks. But manual workflows and desktop tools cap how many jobs you can run.

Our answer

AI handles the admin around every bid by synthesizing project info, drafting RFQs, and surfacing insights. Your team bids more without burning out.

When our senior estimator retires, we're done.

Thirty years of bid logic, client context, and hard-won instincts live in one person's head. When they leave, the company's knowledge walks out the door.

Our answer

The platform captures bid history, project context, and customer insights. Institutional wisdom becomes infrastructure, not folklore.

We can't afford enterprise software.

Perpetual licenses north of $25,000. Annual subscriptions at $7,700. Maintenance fees on top. The industry has treated small contractors as a cash extraction opportunity.

Our answer

Affordable, honest pricing. A 5-person shop deserves the same tools as a 500-person firm. Free to start, updates always included.

The people who build our world deserve to spend their energy on work that only humans can do.

Built on Bidscreen Cloud

Today you get Bidscreen Cloud, with company classes, auto trace, worksheet cloning, and structured Excel exports. We add speed to output, retained formula exports for your software and bots, KPI dashboards for win/loss and customer profitability, and AI to speed through soils reports and long documents. Here’s what we deliver:

Speed

Speed to Output

Faster drawing logic and smarter tools mean more bid volume without hiring more estimators. Stop turning down good jobs because there isn't time to estimate them all.

Export

Retained Formula Exports

Clean, structured Excel exports that keep class names and quantities intact. Perfect for feeding Pronamics, OpenCore, or your custom API and bots.

KPI

KPI Dashboard

Automated win/loss and customer profitability tracking. Replace pen and paper bid tracking with a dashboard that keeps you on top of what's working.

AI

Soils & Docs in Seconds

AI that speeds through huge soils reports and long documents. Structured tables, references, and answers with citations so you bid faster and stay accurate.

Pursuit CRM

Your Bid Command Center

Every lesson your team learns, every email sent, every bid won or lost; captured in one place. When your next estimator starts, they inherit institutional knowledge, not a blank slate. RFQs, AI insights, email tracking, checklists, signatures, timeline review, and dashboards; all where they belong.

Email Tracking

Save emails to projects from Outlook or Gmail. Every conversation lives alongside the bid.

AI Insights & RFQs

AI-generated RFQ templates and customer history insights so you bid smarter and find the lowest prices.

Checklists & Reminders

Custom checklists for every bid stage and automated follow-up reminders so nothing slips.

Document Signatures

Send and collect signatures for subcontracts and approvals without leaving the platform.

Bid Timeline Review

Replay the full timeline of any bid to see exactly where things went off track.

Reports & Dashboards

AI report builder, soils extraction, quotas, and dashboards that keep you on track.
