What is TrueScope?

Real data. Real projects.
Real answers.

We combine 110,000+ real building permits with proprietary executed contract data — what homeowners in your neighborhood actually paid. No third-party affiliations. No advertising. No conflicts of interest. Just the data, priced to your street.

See exactly what your neighbors paid for the same work
We combine 110,000+ real building permits with our proprietary database of actual executed renovation contracts — what homeowners within blocks of your address actually paid. Not city averages. Not statewide surveys. Your street.
Up-to-date local rates
Prices change fast. We weight recent projects heavily and apply inflation adjustments so you see today's market, not 2021 prices.
Precision matching across 37 sub-categories
A 45 sqft powder room and a 200 sqft master bath are completely different projects — and so is a kitchen refresh versus a full gut remodel. We match across 37 project sub-categories so you're always comparing apples to apples, not just trade to trade.
What You Get

An Instant Verdict on Every Line Item

Each trade in your proposal gets a clear status so you know exactly where to push back before you sign.

HIGH
ABOVE MARKET
This trade is priced above comparable projects near your address. Worth discussing with your contractor or renovation professional.
FAIR
MARKET RATE
This trade is priced within the normal range for your neighborhood and project type.
LOW
RISK OF MISSING SCOPE
Unusually low bids often mean missing scope items. Confirm everything that's included before signing — what's left out can cost more than the bid itself.
Why It Matters
"Don't leave your biggest investment
to guesswork."

Home renovations are the largest financial decision most people make outside of buying a home. Yet most homeowners sign contracts with no idea whether the price is fair.

TrueScope is powered by real government permit records and proprietary contract data from your neighbors. No contractor affiliation. No advertising. Just the data.

Don't guess. Just know.
