Should you bid it? Get the facts in minutes
Bid Snapshot is fast tender triage: BidSnap scans every page of the package and hands you the facts that drive a bid or no-bid decision, before you burn an afternoon finding them yourself.
What a snapshot tells you
- Closing date, time, and submission method
- What the project actually is, and which scope is yours
- Bonding, security, and prequalification requirements
- Mandatory site meetings and other hard deadlines
- Red flags worth knowing before you commit estimating hours
- How the work lines up with your company's capabilities and range
Where it fits in your week
Most estimators see far more tenders than they can price. The plan room feed, the invitations from GCs, the forwarded emails: each one costs an hour or two just to figure out whether it deserves real attention. Bid Snapshot compresses that hour into about 2 minutes per tender, so the afternoon goes to the bids you actually want to win.
It reads everything, even for a snapshot
Since May 2026 the snapshot scans every page of every document in the package before writing its summary, the same scan the full Deep Dive uses. If the disqualifying clause is buried in an appendix, it gets found.
The decision stays yours
Bid Snapshot does not score tenders or tell you to walk away. It presents the facts a good estimator would gather in a first pass, and you make the call. When the answer is "worth pricing", the same project upgrades to a full Deep Dive review without re-uploading anything.
What it costs
About $1.50 per tender. Cheap enough to run on everything that crosses your desk.
