General contractors

The problem
Three figures from independent studies, 2024 to 2026, on the US market.
of bid invitations get a response
ConstructConnect, bid coverage guide, August 2026
between the pay application and the subcontractor’s payment (general contractors think 35)
Billd, 2026 National Subcontractor Market Report, June 2026, 600+ respondents
general contractors had a project delayed or cancelled by a failing subcontractor
AGC / FMI, 2024
On Beedy, the package is funded before the first day of work and released step by step. The company knows it will be paid; you only pay what is validated.

How it works
From the brief to the verification, each step has its rule, its delay and its scene. Click a step or let the scenario play.
Plans, photos or a sentence. The AI writes the brief, without your address.
40 companies notified, the same brief for all.
Numbered agreement, frozen at acceptance, change orders tracked.
A single payment, held by Beedy, processed by Stripe.
Each step validated on photos releases its share.
20% held 14 days; a claim freezes everything.
Three screens: description and files, organisation and questions, review. The AI asks at most 10 questions and writes the technical brief; your address, your name and your phone are removed from it.
One brief, read identically by every company.
Describe the package
Your request in three screens
Is the existing panel to be replaced or extended?
Replaced, 12 circuits.
Are the conduits accessible?
10 questions at most.
Projects and packages
The project gathers your packages; each package stays a separate order, with its own payment, steps and thread.
A package in draft, one published, one in progress: the project keeps the overview while each trade moves on.
Invite a site manager, an architect or the owner. Each one reads or edits according to their role; only the owner publishes and pays.

Consolidated budget of the funded packages
Privacy
Enough to price accurately. Nothing that lets it approach you outside Beedy.
A confirmed visit opens the street, floor and unit to that company only, until 2 h after the slot. Never the access code nor the phone.
The money of a package
Move the slider: the diagnostic, the work steps and the verification are recalculated, along with the fee by channel and the sales tax.
Beedy sends your request to the companies that match it, and the rate goes down as the package grows.
Subcontractors you bring yourself: invited through your tender link, or named by their Beedy number. A company that had already bid on your request stays on the marketplace scale.
The subcontractor brought you to Beedy: they invited you from their client book, or you used their booking link or QR code. Your request goes to them only, with no Beedy fee.
County surtax not included in the total. The fee applies to the package price, never to the tax.
When things go wrong
Claim, walk-out, cancellation: what happens, who acts, how fast.
On a step or at verification. The release of the money freezes and the company must answer.
Once it has left for the site, a cancellation refunds you in full and penalises it.
A 100% cooling-off by amount, then a decreasing schedule until the company leaves for the site.
| Amount | 100% cooling-off | far from the date | between 24 h and the limit | last 24 h | company on the way |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| up to $250 | 30 min | 100%48 h and more | 85% | 60% | 40% |
| $250 to $800 | 8 h | 100%4 days and more | 80% | 65% | 50% |
| over $800 | 24 h | 100%7 days and more | 85% | 70% | 60% |
Yes. You invite them through your tender link; if one of them is chosen, the fee drops to 2% instead of the marketplace scale (10% to 0.9% by amount). You can also name a single company and pay step by step without competition.
Never. A package’s target price is not served to the companies. They see the brief, the files, the planned steps and, among themselves, the prices and lead times of the other bids, anonymous.
The company gets a reminder at least 48 h before the deadline; without an answer from you within 7 days (4 days with a company that invited you), the step is validated and its share released.
Up to 20 work steps, on top of the diagnostic and the verification that always frame the plan.
For regulated trades (electrical, plumbing, HVAC), the state licence is checked with the DBPR and shown on the profile only while it is valid.
Through a numbered change order (CO-1, CO-2…). A pending change request freezes the release of the steps, 14 days at most.
No. The request stays open until you award it; you can renew it 3 times per 24 h, and Beedy warns you after 2 h then 24 h without a bid.
