## What is Timely Bid?

Who else wants to half their estimating time while being more accurate?

Timely Bid was created by contractors to save you time on bidding PDF blueprints.

No need to count items on your blueprint, write it all down, add pricing then break out the calculator to get the total.

Timely Bid adds your items, multiples it by the price you specify for the item, then totals all the prices into one nice, neat number.

All this is done from your phone or tablet.

Timely Bid gives you more time, more accuracy and more mobility.

Each Item has its own color, easily identifying what has been counted.

As you place highlights on your PDF blueprint, Timely Bid saves your work automatically.

Never worry about losing your spot and having to start over again.

Time is everything! For the cost of a cheap lunch, you’ll be saving yourself loads of time in the future.

Simplicity and usability were the key factors in mind when we developed Timely Bid.

Having your blueprints marked and totaled at the tip of your fingers was the outcome.

Wherever you and your phone are, is the place where business gets done.

Just one payment and you’re on the road to easy bidding in your pocket!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2025-12-20*

Waste of $10… the app doesn’t keep count.

### 1/5 — The app is not fully functional

*2025-11-12*

You cannot read what you’re typing into the lines as the writing is white, and the background is also white. When exporting your design, the colors do not stay the same as shown.

### 5/5 — Great App!!!

*2024-07-18*

I use this app every time for doing take offs. I find it very helpful in making sure I don’t miss anything. The export feature of the completed mark up and summary is so helpful.

Buying this app made sense as it was’t too expensive and did all I need it to do. It is light weight and not overly taxing on my devices resources, it has never let me down.

I recommend this App for sure!!

### 1/5 — Useless

*2022-11-16*

Tutorial needs update, and fix APP DOESNT WORK!
