Sunstate Trades

Pricing

Free where it counts. Paid where it pays.

Free gets you the directory — every licensed Florida sub by trade and service area, phone number right on the listing. The paid tiers bring the work in-tool: post RFQs, invite subs to bid, and get their numbers back in one place.

No contracts. No hidden fees. Cancel anytime.

Start free

Right now, it's all free. While we build out the directory, GCs who sign up are upgraded to Premium at no charge — so you can post RFQs, invite subs, and take bids in-tool while we grow. Every sub feature, including Plus and Pipeline, is free for every sub. The tiers show what's included once we officially launch, and we'll give plenty of notice before any pricing begins.

Invite a GC, earn a free month

Premium and Pro GCs earn one free month of their plan for every GC they invite who signs up and stays paid for 3 months. No cap — invite as many as you want.

Invite a Premium GC, get a free Premium month. Invite a Pro GC, get a free Pro month. Either way, the credit matches your tier.

How Pipeline works

Pipeline is the marketplace mechanism for subs who don't want to wait. When a GC is slammed and opens an RFQ to the marketplace, Pipeline subs can find it and bid directly — no invite required. The GC gets more coverage when they need it; the sub gets a shot at work they'd never have seen. It's most useful once there's steady RFQ volume, so it grows in value as the marketplace does.

Common questions

What do GCs get on the free tier?

The directory. You can search every licensed Florida sub by trade and service area, see their license and trades, and call them yourself. Posting RFQs, getting matched, inviting subs to bid, and taking bids in-tool are Premium features — and while we build out the directory, we're upgrading GCs to Premium at no charge so you can use them.

When does paid for GCs turn on?

Not yet. GCs signing up now are upgraded to Premium free while we build out the directory. When we launch pricing you'll get plenty of notice and a clear breakdown of what's included at each tier. Nothing you've built goes anywhere — your RFQs, your bid history, and your subs stay exactly as they are.

When does paid for subs turn on as a requirement?

Never. The free sub tier stays free. Plus and Pipeline are optional upgrades for subs who want a complete contactable profile, the Verified Pro badge, email RFQ notifications, and (for Pipeline) the ability to bid on open work without an invite.

Is everything really free for subs right now?

Yes. While we build out the directory, every sub feature — including Plus and Pipeline — is free for every sub. Once we officially launch, the tiers above apply, and we'll give you plenty of notice before any sub pricing begins. The free tier stays free regardless.

What if my org needs more than 5 PMs or 5 supers?

Pro at $299/month gives you unlimited PMs and superintendents. If you're a larger operation with custom needs, email us at hello@sunstatetrades.com.

Do I need Plus to use Pipeline?

Pipeline includes everything in Plus, plus the ability to bid on open RFQs without an invite. It's one subscription, not two.

Can I switch tiers later?

Yes — upgrade, downgrade, or cancel anytime. No annual commitments.

Is there a free trial of Premium, Pro, Plus, or Pipeline?

During the proof-first phase, we work with GCs and subs directly to scope what they need and set you up with the right tier while we grow. Email hello@sunstatetrades.com and we'll talk.

How does the GC invite credit work?

When you invite another GC, you earn one free month of your current plan once they complete 3 full paid months. There's no cap — you can invite as many GCs as you want and earn a free month for each one who hits the 3-month mark. The credit automatically applies to your next invoice.

When does the credit actually award?

After the invited GC completes their 3rd full paid month — not on the 3rd payment. If they cancel before then, no credit. If they cancel after the credit awards (month 4 or later), the credit stands. You earned it when they hit month 3.

What are the rules on the credit?

A few:
  • Your free month matches your tier at the time the credit awards. Premium inviters get a Premium month free; Pro inviters get a Pro month free.
  • You must be on a paid tier (Premium or Pro) when the credit awards. Free-tier inviters don't earn credits, even retroactively after upgrading.
  • The invited GC can pick any tier — Premium or Pro — and the credit still applies based on your tier, not theirs.
  • We may adjust the program for new invites in the future, but any credits already earned under current terms will always be honored.
