FAQ
GougeAlert is designed to be simple: private quote review, paid by homeowners, with no contractor referral business hiding underneath it.
Common questions

No. GougeAlert is an informational quote-review tool. It helps you understand pricing and scope risk, but final hiring decisions are yours.
PDFs and common image formats are supported. You can also enter quote details manually.
That is still valuable. A fair report gives you confidence and helps confirm that the scope and assumptions are clear enough to proceed.
Ask before you upload. We would rather be clear than clever.
