About · Celestix
Built for the people who buy the work
Celestix builds operational software with AI at the core: contract intelligence for federal bidders at celestix.ai and fleet safety systems for industrial operators. BidPortal is the construction side of the same idea: the messy, high-stakes paper trail of buying work, turned into one clean system of record.
General contractors run their bid on spreadsheets, email threads, and shared drives. Invitations get lost, addenda go unread, scope gaps hide until leveling night, and the audit trail is whatever survived in someone's inbox. BidPortal replaces that whole stack with one place where projects are posted, subs are invited, plans are shared, and bids are collected and leveled.
The record is the product
Every invitation, view, decline, question, answer, revision, and award lands in one ledger. When a dispute or an audit comes, you have the paper trail without having kept it by hand.
Zero friction for subs
Subcontractors are the supply side of your bid. They get a link that just opens: plans, scope, bid form. No accounts, no passwords, no software to learn. More bids in means better numbers.
Numbers you can defend
Leveling is not a spreadsheet you rebuilt at 11pm. Structured bid forms mean every sub prices the same items, plugs normalize the gaps, and the export is ready for the owner meeting.
The stack behind it
Boring where it should be, sharp where it counts
BidPortal runs on the same engineering standards as the rest of Celestix: hardened authentication, tokenized guest access with hashed links, versioned file storage, rate limiting, and a full email log of every message the system sends on your behalf. Your bid data belongs to you and exports whenever you want it.
