No migration

BidCoat connects to the data you already have. No re-entry, no switching tools.

Real answers

Win rates by GC, pipeline value by tier, follow-up alerts adjusted for project size.

Live in a day

We handle the setup. Your team is up and running before the end of the day.

The problem

The data exists. The visibility doesn't.

Which GCs are actually worth bidding for?

You estimate for dozens of general contractors. Some award you work. Most don’t. But you keep bidding for all of them because you don’t have the data to say no.

What’s sitting in your pipeline right now?

You submitted a bid 6 weeks ago. Did the GC award it? Did they go with someone else? Is it still alive? Nobody knows unless someone picks up the phone.

Where is your estimating time going?

Your best estimator is buried. But is he working on the $800K project that could close, or the $12K job that came in yesterday?

How do you follow up without being annoying?

A $2K change order pending two weeks is probably forgotten. A $500K project pending two months is normal. But nothing you have today tells you the difference.

How it works

You don't start over

BidCoat connects to your existing bid data. No re-entry. No migration. No training.

01

Connect your data

Point BidCoat at your existing bid board. We read what you have — job names, amounts, GCs, contacts, even color-coded statuses.

02

See your real pipeline

Bids are organized automatically. Companies are deduplicated. Contacts extracted. Win rates calculated. It just works.

03

Make better decisions

Know which GCs to call, which bids to follow up on, and where your estimating time actually pays off.

What you get

The pipeline your bid data was always meant to be

Pipeline at a glance

See every active bid, what’s due this week, what’s been sitting too long, and what’s been won — all on one screen.

Win rates by GC

Know which general contractors actually award you work. Stop spending estimating hours on relationships that don’t convert.

Smart follow-up alerts

BidCoat knows a $500K project pending 60 days is normal and a $5K job pending 14 days is forgotten. Your current tools don’t.

AI relationship insights

Plain-language analysis of your bid history. Which GCs are worth your time. Where your estimating hours are going. No dashboards to interpret.

Automatic data sync

Your team keeps using the spreadsheet they know. BidCoat reads it automatically every hour. Nothing to learn, nothing to change.

Project folders & invoicing

Auto-created Google Drive folders for every bid. QuickBooks Online invoicing when you win. The post-award workflow, handled.

Who it's for

Built for commercial painting subcontractors

If your team estimates projects and submits bids to general contractors — through BuildingConnected, Procore, or email — BidCoat is built for how you already work.

Lead estimator

See your win rate by GC so you spend estimating hours on bids you can actually win.

Owner / VP

Common questions

What is BidCoat?

Bid pipeline management software for commercial painting subcontractors. It connects to your existing bid data and turns it into a real pipeline with win rates, follow-up alerts, and AI-powered insights about your GC relationships.

Do I need to re-enter all my bid data?

No. BidCoat connects to the spreadsheet your team already uses. It reads your data automatically, deduplicates companies, extracts contacts, and organizes everything into a pipeline. No re-entry required.

What can BidCoat tell me that I can’t figure out today?

Win rate by GC, pipeline value by project tier, which relationships convert and which don’t, which bids need follow-up adjusted for project size, and AI-powered insights about where to focus your estimating time.

How much does BidCoat cost?

$149 per month per organization, with up to 5 users included. One plan, everything included.

Who is BidCoat for?

Commercial painting subcontractors and estimators who submit bids to general contractors — whether through BuildingConnected, Procore, or email. If your team bids on commercial projects, BidCoat is built for you.
