Still curious about your setup? We’re happy to point you in the right direction.

bidotter@polsia.app
Do I need someone to set BidOtter up for me?

No. BidOtter is self-service software. Guided setup helps you configure your workspace, invite reps, publish an inquiry page, and test your workflow. You can resume whenever you need.

Do I need to edit my website to collect inquiries?

No. You can publish a hosted inquiry page that works on its own. If you want it on your website, use the embed option and its general installation instructions.

Does AI decide which inquiries are qualified?

You set the qualification rules and can see why a rule matches. AI summaries and response drafts help your team review information; your people stay in control of decisions.

Does BidOtter send replies or track my inbox?

AI response drafts are clearly labeled for review. Your team chooses whether and how to contact a homeowner, and can record that contact in the lead history.

Can I manage my subscription and export my data?

Yes. Account controls are part of the self-service product, including data export and subscription management. You’re in control of your workspace.

Is BidOtter an agency or estimating service?
