Common Questions
Do I need previously written bids to get started?
No—but it helps. TradeBid AI works out of the box on any RFP. If you have 3-5 past proposals (even rough PDFs), uploading them lets us fine-tune your drafts to sound like your company's voice from day one. You can add them anytime later too.
How does TradeBid AI compare to traditional bid-proposal software?
Most tools like Autotask, Proposify, or Cosentially help you organize responses and manage templates—but they don't write anything. You still do all the actual writing. TradeBid AI generates first-draft proposal content for you, so you're reviewing and approving instead of starting from scratch.
These platforms also typically charge annual subscriptions, regardless of how many bids you actually submit. TradeBid's per-bid model ($49-99) means you only pay when you win the opportunity to bid.
What does a typical proposal cost?
Simple RFPs (residential scopes, standard forms) start at $49. Complex bids (commercial, multi-trade, custom form requirements) run $99. You get one complete first-draft proposal generated per credit—no hourly fees, no surprise invoices.
We also offer a free first proposal so you can test quality before committing to a paid plan.
How long until I can submit my first bid?
Most users are generating their first draft within 15 minutes of signing up:
1. **Create account** (2 min) 2. **Paste or upload the RFP** (3 min) 3. **Click Generate** (2-5 min for the draft) 4. **Review, edit, and download** (5-10 min)
You don't need to configure integrations, import a template library, or attend a onboarding call. If you get stuck, our in-app chat handles it in minutes.
