How a job runs

One thread from posted to paid

Most tools cover one step of this and hand you off for the rest. This is the whole run, on one record, for both sides of it.

  1. Step 01

    Post the scope

    The GC lists trades, budget range, timeline and drawings.

  2. Step 02

    Bids arrive

    Subs working that trade find it, save it, and price it.

  3. Step 03

    Award the work

    Shortlist, accept one bid, and the job opens automatically.

  4. Step 04

    Build it

    Status, tasks and percent complete update as work happens.

  5. Step 05

    Invoice & pay

    Bill flat or by progress draw. The GC pays by card.

  6. Step 06

    Review both ways

    Each side rates the other once the job is finished.

Two sides, one job

Whichever end of the contract you're on

For general contractors

Hire well beyond your rolodex

  • Search crews by trade, location, rating and verification status
  • Read every bid on one screen — price, timeline, scope notes
  • Licences, insurance and past work attached to each profile
  • Message the crews you're considering before you commit
  • Track progress, documents and invoices per project
  • Bring your PMs and estimators in on their own seats
Post a project

For subcontractors

Fill the calendar without cold-calling

  • Open scopes filtered by your trade, your radius, your budget band
  • Save what looks good, bid before the close date
  • One profile carrying your licences, insurance and portfolio
  • Report progress the GC can see without ringing you
  • Invoice from the job — flat, or draws with retainage held back
  • Ratings from finished jobs that follow you to the next GC

Every trade on the site

Twelve trades, one directory

Pick the trade to narrow the board. Each company profile then lists the specific services it actually offers.

Why anyone should trust the other side

Accountability is the product

A marketplace is only worth using if the person on the other end is real, and the record of what was agreed survives the argument.

Licence and insurance on file

Verification means real documents, uploaded and reviewed — not a box a company ticks at signup.

Reviews only from finished jobs

A rating can only be left by the other party on a job that actually completed. Both sides get rated.

Payments run through Stripe

Invoices are paid by card through Stripe, straight from the GC to the sub. We never hold your money.

The job keeps the record

Bids, drawings, messages and progress live on the project — not in a text thread nobody can find in March.

Straight dealing

Four promises about the money

The terms are the same for everyone on the platform, and they don't change once you've won the work.

You keep the whole contract

The invoice settles straight from the GC to the sub. We don't take a percentage of the job.

Your place in the results is earned

Search orders by verification and rating. There is no position to buy, at any price.

Your number stays yours

Your bid goes to the GC who posted the work. Competing bidders see how many proposals came in — never what anyone bid.

The plan is the whole cost

No fee for an introduction, none per bid you send, and no commission at the end of it.
