Why BidBuild?
Five things that are true here and mostly are not elsewhere. Each one links to where you can check it for yourself.
Contingency moves up, not just down
Most tools set contingency as a percentage at quote time and only ever count it down. BidBuild holds it as a signed swing against plan, scored against the purchase orders and bills that actually landed — so it can move up as well as down.

Every plan includes unlimited users, the Free one included. Adding a second project manager, the bookkeeper or a foreman does not change your bill.

Free, Essentials and Professional are listed with their prices on the pricing page. The free plan is free rather than a trial that expires, and there is no demo call standing between you and the number.

BidBuild IQ is built in — 250 credits a month on Essentials and 1,000 on Professional, rolling over up to twice the monthly allotment. Because BidBuild speaks MCP you can point your own assistant at it instead: over 100 tools, live today. Most vendors ship a closed AI feature you can only use inside their product.
