Prelaunch — building the early-access list

Subcontractor Leads built around the work worth your bid.

Subcontractor Leads is being built to bring you commercial construction projects matched to your trade and your market — with the scope facts up front, so you can make a fast go or no-go call instead of chasing every plan set.

No active opportunities yet — we're prelaunch. Requesting your trade tells us which markets to build coverage for first.

The go / no-go call

What makes a project worth your bid

Every worthwhile bid starts as a quick call: is this one worth my hours? These are the facts a good estimator checks first — and the facts we're building the service to put in front of you, up front.

A concrete commercial building under construction — the kind of job these go / no-go calls are made on.

Scope fit, at a size you staff well

Is the work actually your trade, at a scale your crews can cover? A clean scope match beats a marquee job you'd have to scramble to staff.

Your market and your radius

Distance drives cost, mobilization, and risk. Work inside your service area is usually worth more than a bigger job three states away.

Real lead time to price it

Enough runway to take off the plans, get your suppliers' numbers, and think. A bid due in days rarely gets your sharpest price.

Delivery method and who's running it

Design-bid-build, CM-at-risk, or design-build changes how you bid, who you answer to, and how you get paid. It belongs in the first read.

Wage, bond, and prequal

Prevailing wage, bonding, and prequalification requirements can decide whether a job is even worth opening — before you price a single line.

Documents you can actually bid from

Plans, specs, and current addenda complete enough to price without guessing. Half a drawing set is how good numbers go wrong.

Built for the people who price the work.

Estimators and subs make go or no-go calls all day. The aim is simple: make the projects that fit easy to say yes to.

What we're building

See the right projects sooner. Decide on them faster.

We're building a service that puts fitting commercial projects in front of you with the facts that drive a bid decision — not a searchable pile of everything, and not a firehose of bad-fit leads.

We're prelaunch, so we'll be straight with you: there are no live opportunities on this page, our sources and coverage are still being built, and we won't pretend otherwise. What's here is the shape of the thing and a way to get in line.

  1. Request your trade and market

    Tell us the work you do and the area you cover. That's what we match against.

  2. We match scoped opportunities

    Commercial projects that fit your trade, size, and radius — with scope, delivery, timing, and requirements up front.

  3. You make the call

    Go or no-go in a couple of minutes, instead of an afternoon spent digging to find out it was never a fit.

Straight talk

What we haven't decided yet

Prelaunch means real questions are still open. We'd rather name them than paper over them — and early requests help us answer several of them.

What it costs

Pricing, and whether you get a credit when a lead isn't what we said it was.

Exclusivity

Whether an opportunity goes to one sub per trade, or to several.

Which trades and markets first

Where coverage opens up first — driven partly by where early requests land.

Volume and pace

How many opportunities you'd see, and how often, without watering down the fit.

Where leads come from

Our sources, and how we confirm a project is real and bid-ready before it reaches you.

When it goes live

When early access turns into real matching. We'll tell the list first.

While we build

Practical reading on finding, evaluating, and bidding work

The service isn't live yet, but the job of finding good commercial work is. These guides are written for U.S. commercial subcontractors and estimators — no sign-up, no pitch.

Why request your trade now

Shape where we build first

The trades and metros with the most early requests are the ones we work to cover first.

First in line when your market opens

Early requests are first to hear when matching starts in your area.

Help set the bar

Tell us what makes a lead worth your time, and it shapes what we choose to put in front of you.

Request early access

Share your trade and the market you cover. It takes a minute, it's free, and it commits you to nothing.

  • No paid offer and no live leads today — the service is being built.
  • Nothing is charged, and there's no obligation to buy later.
  • We use your trade and market to prioritize where coverage opens first.
Request your trade

The request form is a prototype and does not submit, store, or send anything yet.

Straight answers, including the ones we don't have yet

Is this live yet?

No. We're prelaunch. There are no active opportunities on the site, and matching hasn't started. Requesting your trade adds you to the early-access list and tells us where to build coverage first.

How is this different from a bid board or plan room?

We're building around the go / no-go call rather than a searchable pile. The aim is fewer, better-fit opportunities matched to your trade and radius, with the scope facts up front — not another database to comb through after work. Our comparison of bidding-website categories explains how the existing options differ.

Where will the opportunities come from?

Still being built, and we won't pretend we have a magic feed. Before we launch, we'll be specific about our sources and how we confirm a project is real and bid-ready. In the meantime, our guide to free construction leads covers the public sources anyone can use today.

Will opportunities be exclusive to me?

Not decided. Exclusivity is one of the open calls we're working through — and one we'd like early members' input on before we set it.

What will it cost?

Not set yet. Pricing, and whether you get a credit for a lead that isn't what we described, are undecided. Requesting early access doesn't cost anything and doesn't commit you to anything.

Which trades and markets are covered?

U.S. commercial construction trades. Which trades and metros open first depends on where early requests concentrate — which is a good reason to request yours now.
