Bid Check
Pick a job type and enter your working numbers. Your bid appears as a black marker on each historical range.
Every card is one job type. The orange marker is your historical median; the shaded band is where the middle half of your estimates landed (p25–p75). A new bid inside the band is priced the way you've historically priced. Outside the band isn't wrong — it's a prompt to ask why this job is different. Flagged and superseded records are excluded.
