Choosing a Vendor

When vendors submit bids for your building's service request, you'll review them and choose the best fit. Here's what you'll see and how to evaluate.

What's in a bid

Each bid includes the vendor's pricing, their Kindo Score, their insurance status, and any notes they've included about their approach. For multi-job requests, vendors set pricing for each job type separately — so you can compare apples to apples.

Understanding the Kindo Score

The Kindo Score reflects a vendor's quality and reliability across all their work on Kindo. It's based on neighbors' ratings, job completion history, and reviews. A higher score means other buildings have had consistently good experiences.

Insurance and compliance

You can see each vendor's document status directly on their bid. Once you pick a vendor, Kindo sends their paperwork to your building management, which confirms it before work begins.

Pricing comparison

You'll see each vendor's pricing broken down by volume tiers. Filling a pro's day is the cheapest your building can land — that's the number to aim for. For multi-job requests, each job type has its own rate.

Making your selection

Select the vendor that best balances quality, pricing, and reliability for your building. Once you select a bid, the booking process begins. You can include a note explaining your choice — this builds trust with your neighbors and helps them feel confident in the selection.
