// FAQ

Common questions.

01What does Light RFP cost?Posting an RFP is free for owners. Browsing and bidding is free for vendors. Posted RFPs are required to use either bonding to protect their projects or pay vendors by credit card via Light RFP. In some cases posters pay Light RFP a SaaS fee to pay vendors by ACH.
02How do free bid bonds actually work?Bid bonds cost $0 — no catch. We make our money when you win: the performance & payment bond on the awarded job is priced at a flat 3%, and your bid bond application doubles as prequalification, so it's one click away.
03I'm an owner — why do vendor bonds matter to me?Because every bidder arrives bond-ready. No more discovering at award time that your low bidder can't get bonded — prequalification already happened when they bid.
04How does AI bid leveling work?AI reads every bid and lines them up — scope coverage, pricing, exclusions, warranties, and red flags — so you compare like with like instead of decoding seven different PDF formats.
// Field note
"I have been surprised by the cost savings and speed of execution on every RFP we have completed. It gives me the confidence that I can come in below my budget numbers while maintaining a high level of quality."
