Fair price estimate and verdict

How it works

Three steps
to price confidence.

People rarely know whether a plumber, builder, mechanic, cleaner or electrician is overcharging. Overpaid checks the quote for you.

01

Describe it

Tell the app what you are paying for and what you have been quoted, in a short form or by chatting.

02

Compare

Overpaid checks the quote against realistic market ranges for your area and the type of job.

03

Get the verdict

A clear rating from fair to risky, so you can decide before you say yes.

Verdicts

From fair to risky,
at a glance.

Every check ends in one of four verdicts, so there is never any guesswork about what the number means.

01

Fair

The quote sits inside the realistic range for your area. Go ahead.

02

Slightly high

A bit above typical. Worth one message before you accept.

03

Overpaid

Clearly above the local market. Negotiate or get another quote.

04

Risky

Something is off. The scope, the price or both deserve scrutiny.

Where it works

Built for markets
where prices are murky.

Overpaid works best where people do not know the fair price in the first place.
