Local businesses send private offers.
Pick the one you want.
Bidit is a reverse-auction marketplace. You describe what you need, and local businesses send you private offers. Your request stays open for 7 days (2 days if urgent). You see every offer and whether the business says it has a licence number. You decide — and it's free for you.
Post a request →Three steps. Private offers. Free for you.
Post your request
Tell Bidit what you need in plain language — "Roofer in Laval, leak on south slope, urgent" or "Mortgage broker in Montréal for a $400K home." Bidit sorts it into the right category and region. Post on the website or through an AI assistant such as ChatGPT or Claude — either way, you confirm by email before any business is invited. Free.
Businesses send private offers
Businesses that serve your category and region are notified, and local businesses may be invited to your request. Each one can send an offer (price + short pitch). Offers are private: a business never sees a rival's amount. If no business serves your region yet, we tell you and email you when one joins.
Pick the one you want
You compare every offer side-by-side: price, timeline, and whether the business says it has a licence number. Business names and each business's own description stay hidden until you choose, so every offer is judged on the facts. Only the business you pick receives your contact details, and it contacts you to arrange the job.
⏱ How long your request stays open
Every request stays open for offers for 7 days by default, or 2 days if you mark it urgent. Offers are private: you see all of them, and each business sees only its own.
You confirm by email. Businesses that serve your category and region are notified.
Each business sends a price + a short pitch. Businesses may see that other offers exist, never their amounts.
Pick an offer whenever you're ready while the request is open — or pick none. Offers that aren't chosen cost the business nothing.
Only the business you picked gets your contact details. You arrange and pay for the job directly with them; Bidit never holds your money.

🪪 Licences — check them yourself
Bidit does not verify licences for customers and shows no check result. A business can give a licence number; Bidit does not tell you whether it is valid, shows no check result and does not show the number on offers. Before you hire, ask the business for its licence number and check it with the relevant regulator (for example in the RBQ register for a Québec contractor). Where to check, by category:
| Petal | Licence or register | Region |
|---|---|---|
| 🔨 Contractors / Construction | RBQ (Régie du bâtiment du Québec) · Tarion · WorkSafe BC · Red Seal · UK Companies House · SIRENE · ABN | CA · UK · FR · AU |
| 🧹 Cleaning | CNESST (QC) · WSIB (ON) · Insurance + Companies House / SIRENE / ABN | CA · UK · FR · AU |
| 📸 Photography (incl. drone) | Transport Canada RPAS · FAA Part 107 · Companies House · SIRENE · ABN | CA · US · UK · FR · AU |
| 🚗 Auto (dealer + mechanic) | OPC (QC) · OMVIC (ON) · VSA (BC) · Provincial registries | CA · UK · FR · AU |
| 📋 Notary | Chambre des notaires du Québec | CA-QC only |
| ✈️ Flights | IATA-accredited agencies + corporate identity | Worldwide |
Every offer is labelled "This business says it has a licence number — ask them for it and check it with the regulator" or "No licence number provided". Bidit does not verify these numbers for customers and shows no check result.

Frequently asked questions
How much does Bidit cost me as a consumer?
Nothing. You never pay Bidit — no subscription, no listing fee, no commission on the deal you close. In open categories, only the business you pick pays Bidit a fee for that matched job, disclosed to the business before it bids. Businesses whose offers aren't chosen pay nothing. In regulated professions, businesses pay a flat monthly subscription instead.
How long does my request stay open?
7 days by default, or 2 days if you mark it urgent. You can pick an offer as soon as one feels right — there is no obligation to wait, and no obligation to pick any.
What if no business sends an offer?
If you post in a region or category that doesn't have businesses yet, your request is kept as a "demand signal" and we email you when a business that serves it joins. You can also leave your email on any "blossoming-soon" category to hear when it goes live.
Are the businesses licensed?
Bidit does not verify licences for customers and shows no check result. Businesses declare their own licence number and the regions they are licensed in; Bidit does not tell you whether they are valid, shows no check result and does not show the number on offers. Before you hire, ask the business for its licence number and check it with the relevant regulator — for example the RBQ register for a Québec contractor, OPC/OMVIC for an auto dealer, the Chambre des notaires for a Québec notary. Every offer is labelled "This business says it has a licence number — ask them for it and check it with the regulator" or "No licence number provided".
What's the difference between Bidit and a lead-gen aggregator?
Two differences. First, you see every offer and pick yourself — no algorithm assigns you to the business that paid for the slot. Second, businesses don't pay for leads: in most categories they pay only when you pick them (regulated professions pay a flat monthly subscription instead), and offers that aren't chosen cost them nothing.
Can I post through ChatGPT or Claude?
Yes. AI assistants can send your request to Bidit through justbidit.ai/mcp. We email you to confirm the request, and no business is invited until you do. How to add Bidit to your assistant.
Which categories ("petals") are live right now?
It changes as categories open, so we don't list them here. The home page lists the categories. On each category's page you can see whether it takes requests: a category that is open shows a request form you can fill in; one that isn't open yet says it is opening soon and lets you leave your email. Ideas for new categories are on this page, where you can vote for the next one.
Can I post a request from outside Canada?
Yes. Bidit is bilingual EN/FR by default, and Flights is worldwide. Other petals will accept consumer posts from any region — but offers come only from businesses that serve your region. Ask the business for its licence number and check it before you hire.
What happens after I pick an offer?
The business you picked is notified and receives your contact details — no other business does. It contacts you directly to arrange the job. You pay the business directly; Bidit never holds your payment and doesn't lock you into the platform.
How does Bidit make money if it's free for customers?
In most categories, only the business you pick pays Bidit a fee for that matched job (regulated professions pay a flat monthly subscription instead). The fee is disclosed to the business before it bids, and businesses whose offers aren't chosen pay nothing. You, the customer, never pay Bidit.
Is Bidit related to Manera or another company?
Bidit™ is a trademark (registration pending) and a business line operated by Manera Fintech Service Bidding Platform Inc., operating as Manera Technologies. Bidit has its own roadmap, its own pricing, and its own product surface at justbidit.ai. Nothing about Bidit's marketplace activity is shared with any other Manera product.
