Compare contractor quotes

Line up contractor quotes for a home project side by side, check licenses and reviews, and flag what's missing before the user signs.

Ask for it like this

  • “Compare these three roofing quotes”
  • “Is this kitchen remodel estimate reasonable?”
  • “How do I check if a contractor is licensed?”

What your assistant does

  1. Get the project, the ZIP code, and the quotes the user has — pasted text, or the price, scope, materials, timeline, payment schedule, and warranty of each.
  2. Put the quotes in one table with the same line items, and point out where they are not pricing the same work: permits, cleanup and disposal, or a different grade of materials.
  3. Search typical cost ranges for this project in that area so each quote can be called low, typical, or high.
  4. For each contractor, search the state or local license lookup, the insurance the state requires, and reviews (BBB, Google, local forums), and report anything that does not check out.
  5. Flag red flags — a large upfront deposit (many states cap it), cash-only payment, no written contract, pressure to sign today — and list the questions to ask before choosing.
