Both include
- A list every Monday by email: the public building projects registered with TDLR within 75 miles of your office, the design firm named on each, and the estimated cost entered on TABS.
- The school, city and county bond elections near you, as the Texas Bond Review Board lists them. We never say a bond passed before the official result.
- For districts whose TABS history we've read, the design firms named on their past projects.
- The same list on the web, with CSV and PDF downloads.
- A link to the state record on every line, and a "Wrong record?" button that reaches a person.

What else firms use, and what each does better
The honest answer first: we're narrower. We cover Texas public owners only, with no bid documents, no contractor contacts and no RFQ alerts. If you bid from plans or work outside Texas, keep ConstructConnect or Dodge.
Our founding price is the same as one ConstructConnect Professional market seat ($199/mo, annual contract). Our list price, $399/mo, is more than that.

Questions about the price and the trial
How do the trial and cancelling work?
14 days free, no card. After that it's $399/mo per region ($199/mo for 12 months if you're one of the first 10 firms), billed monthly, and you can cancel anytime under Billing. If the trial ends before you subscribe, CSV and PDF downloads lock, but your list stays readable.
Do I need a card to start?
No. You start the trial with your work email. A card is asked for only when you choose to subscribe.
Who gets the founding price, and for how long?
The first 10 firms to subscribe pay $199/mo per region, locked for 12 months from when they subscribe. After that the price is $399/mo. The trial is the same for everyone.
What is a region?
Everything within 75 miles of your office, measured in a straight line, in Texas. We measure from your office ZIP to the school district's office, the city's or county's point, or the project's location on TABS. A district whose office sits outside the 75 miles isn't included, even if its boundary reaches in. The price is per region, and a region is drawn around one office.
What arrives each week?
One email every Monday: the public building projects registered with TDLR within 75 miles of your office, the design firm named on each, the estimated cost entered on TABS, and the school, city and county bond elections near you as the Texas Bond Review Board lists them. We never say a bond passed before the official result. Every line links to the state record, and the same list is on the web.
Can I see my region before I start?
Yes. Type your ZIP, city or firm name in the box at the top of this page to see the latest projects within 75 miles, with no account. Or open the Dallas sample.
How does this compare with ConstructConnect or Dodge?
We're narrower. We cover Texas public owners only, with no bid documents and no contractor contacts, so if you bid from plans or work outside Texas, keep ConstructConnect or Dodge. Each project we list links to its state record, and we show the bond status and, for districts whose TABS history we've read, the owner's past design firms. The comparison table on this page lists their prices with a source for each.
