Field notes
ClearBid accepts a document upload and a project location, then describes a report built from explanations, glossary entries, red-flag checks, and suggested contractor questions. Its stated state coverage is uneven: California, Texas, Florida, and New York receive statute-cited rules, while other states receive universal checks and jargon translation. The page limits uploads to 15 MB and identifies GPT-4o as the processing model.
