## What we checked on ResponsiBid

Yes Partly No

What it costs your crew No

### Promotion and regular price

none — the plan cards publish plain recurring monthly prices of $179 and $229 with no promotional period, no first-months discount and no monthly/annual billing toggle anywhere on the page.

> Scaling Plan $ 179 / month

What it costs your crew No

### Quote only

All three published plans carry a price on the pricing page — Startup is free, Scaling $179 a month and Pro $229 a month — so nothing is sold only on a sales quote.

### What the price is based on

A flat monthly price per account rather than a per-technician charge: each plan includes one admin user, and the two paid plans add unlimited sub-users at no extra cost.

> Unlimited Sub-Users Authorize unlimited sub-users to act on your behalf in ResponsiBid without having admin capabilities.

### Adding a user

Adding people costs nothing on the paid plans, which carry unlimited sub-users; the free Startup plan is limited to the single admin user and has no sub-users ticked.

> 1 Admin User One user is set up as the account admin authorized to make changes to the account.
