Your board comes set up like this. Rename anything.

The bid log spreadsheet doesn't follow up.

Most contractors track pursuits in some mix of a whiteboard, a bid log spreadsheet, and the estimator's memory. It works — until the month it doesn't.

Bids slip past their due dates.

A submitted bid with no follow-up is a coin flip. Dealboard shows every pursuit, who owns it, and how long it's been quiet — cold ones literally frost over on the board.

Invitations to bid live in email.

Forward any invitation to bid (ITB) to your board's private email address and it lands in your Leads inbox — sender, GC, and message captured. No retyping from the plan room.

CRMs weren't built for preconstruction.

Lead scoring and marketing automation don't win projects. Dealboard tracks what preconstruction actually runs on: the bid, the number, the GC, and the next move.

Built for how contractors actually win work.

Every pursuit on one bid board.

Each project is a card: customer or general contractor, bid value, estimator, and stage — from go/no-go through award. Drag it forward as it moves. Your whole team sees the same pipeline, live.

Every bid keeps its own paper trail.

Scope questions, addenda, the number you submitted, exclusions, who you talked to at the GC — attached to the project, not scattered across inboxes. Anyone can open a job and know exactly where it stands.

Not for everyone.

Dealboard tracks winning the work — it is not estimating, takeoff, scheduling, or project-management software. It runs alongside your plan room and PM stack, covering the one thing they don't: what happens between the invitation to bid and the signed contract.

Questions contractors ask.

Is this estimating software?
No — and that's deliberate. Dealboard tracks winning the work: which projects you're chasing, which bids are out, and what came back. Your takeoff and estimating tools produce the number; Dealboard remembers what happened to it. It runs alongside your plan room and project-management stack, covering the part they don't.
Can I change the stages?
Yes. Your board arrives with a bid pipeline already set up — New Opportunity, Go/No-Go, Site Walk / Pre-Bid, Estimating, Bid Submitted, Scope Review, Negotiation, Contract Pending, Awarded — and you can rename, reorder, add, or delete any of them. Most contractors keep the shape and adjust two or three names to match how their office talks.
How do invitations to bid get in?
Three ways: forward the email to your board's private address, submit through your hosted intake form, or add a project by hand in about twenty seconds. Forwarded invitations land in your Leads inbox with the sender and message captured, ready to promote onto the board with one click.
Does it work for subcontractors and general contractors both?
Yes. Subs use it to track invitations from GCs through award; GCs use it for owner-direct and negotiated work. The pipeline shape is the same either way — the difference is just who's on the other side of the bid.
What does it cost?
Free for one bid board and up to 30 active pursuits, with unlimited teammates — no per-seat charge on the free plan. Plus is $29 per user per month for unlimited boards and pursuits. Won and not-awarded projects never count toward the free limit, so your history doesn't push you into paying.

Your bid board is ready. The whiteboard can retire.
