Built exclusively for
Three bids shouldn't require a construction degree.
One bid is $48,000. Another is $72,000. Are they even quoting the same work? BidsScores compares scope, pricing, exclusions, risk, and contractor qualifications across every proposal — so you don't have to decode them line by line, and you never have to guess which number is real.
What you walk away with
A recommendation you can forward to ownership — as is.
Not a spreadsheet. Not raw AI output. A branded, board-ready report with the pick, the reasoning, and the numbers already written for you.

“Recommended pick. Covers the full scope, fits the budget, and carries the lowest change-order risk of the three bids. The cheaper bid omits work that would cost more later.”
Every point above links back to the line items behind it — see the next section.
Every recommendation is backed by evidence — not opinions.
BidsScores shows its work. Six checks stand behind every score, so you can answer any question ownership throws at you.
Scope comparison
Every bid measured against a complete master scope built from all of them.
Missing line items
Work one contractor included and another quietly left out.
Hidden exclusions
Permits, disposal, code upgrades, and warranties pushed back to you.
Price outliers
Bids priced suspiciously low or padded high versus the others.
Xactimate comparison
For insurance work, measured against the carrier's own estimate.
Contractor risk
License, insurance, bonding, and the likelihood of change orders.
One click: “Explain this like I'm the owner.”
Your job isn't just to understand the bids — it's to explain your choice upward. BidsScores rewrites the recommendation in plain English, so ownership gets it in one read.
In contractor terms
“R&R architectural shingles (30-yr), ice-and-water shield to code, reset ridge vent, tear-off & haul included. Supplement risk low; meets full carrier scope. Normalized total $291,200.”
In owner terms
“This contractor does the complete roof, to code, with cleanup included — and is the least likely to come back asking for more money. It costs a little more than the cheapest bid, and that's exactly why it's the safer choice.”
You could do this in a spreadsheet. Here's why you won't want to.
From guesswork to a decision you can defend.

A water loss? Check the emergency drying bill too.
When a pipe bursts you also get an emergency mitigation bill for a few thousand dollars in drying — with no easy way to tell if it's fair. The Emergency Service Projector reads your photos or the contractor's Encircle / drying report and gives you a plain-English read.
- Water category & class, in plain words
- Drying-days and fair-cost ranges on simple sliders
- An area-aware equipment check — is the count reasonable?
