QuotePacket
QuotePacket turns messy multi-vendor contractor or SaaS estimates into one normalized comparison table and bot-readable JSON packet. Compare base price, extra fees, unit cost, timeline, and missing scope items side by side in under a minute.
- Inspired by the 82-contractor pool RFQ workflow where identical plans produced quotes from $120,000 to $240,000.
- Flags missing baseline inclusions automatically so lowball quotes with hidden exclusions are caught immediately.
