About Bidflow

We use AI to help electricians speed up the time it takes to submit a competitive bid to a job. We do this by scanning complex CAD drawings and 10X-ing the time it takes to estimate a job. This involves using vision models to read and count complex symbols in large PDFs, which typically take hours (sometimes days) to do precisely. Every missed symbol can cost thousands, and our AI can count to 99% accuracy.
