Reviews for subcontractors

If you stand behind the work,you should want this on the record.

Primes on KNTRCTR write how the job went. You write how they went. Neither side sees the other review until both are in. What they publish is what other primes can see the next time your name is on a bid. That is not a pile-on. It is the same job, scored, traveling with the company that did it.

The next prime

A good name is not stuck with one prime.It follows you on KNTRCTR.

Market Reviews sit on your company when another prime you have never worked with opens a bid. That is the point of the network. The prime you just finished for can also keep their review internal. Then only their team sees Your Reviews. You are not automatically on display.

  • Published scores feed Market Reviews that other primes on KNTRCTR can see.
  • Internal reviews stay with the prime who wrote them. They do not hit the market average.
  • Invited bidding stays free. A Free Bidder account has to subscribe to open the full writing they shared with you.

You write too

You review the prime.They review you.

This is not a one-way scorecard. After the end date, both companies are prompted. Ten categories. Would you work with them again. The Performance tab on that job is this contract. Your profile holds the picture across jobs.

  • Same form on both sides. Same lock.
  • Share this review with them is their choice, and yours.
  • Waiting on the other company is normal. Double-blind is doing its job.

Double-blind

They cannot read yours first.You cannot read theirs first.

Neither review is visible until both are submitted. That is how you keep the first score honest. You can still edit until both are in, or until 90 days from the request. Then it locks.

  • No peeking to match or punish.
  • The Performance tab will say when you are waiting, or when you still need to submit.
  • After both are in, you can read what they shared with you. A Free Bidder account has to subscribe to open the full writing.

If it is wrong

Locked is the default.Both sides have to agree to reopen.

A locked review is not a comment thread. If both companies agree the record should change, KNTRCTR support can unlock it so you can edit. That is the dispute path. It is not a public argument on the network.

  • Edit freely until both submit, or until 90 days from the request.
  • After lock, both companies have to agree. Then support unlocks it.
  • Your company name is tied to this record. A legal rebrand goes through KNTRCTR so the reviews stay attached to the right company.

FAQ

How reviews follow you.

How do reviews work?

After a job is completed, both parties are asked to leave a review.

As the lead contractor, you choose whether your review stays internal to your company or rolls into that subcontractor's public score on KNTRCTR. Making it public does not publish your full written review for everyone to read; it feeds into their average so other companies hiring or working with that company can see how they are rated overall.

Subcontractors who subscribe can open that shared written feedback, and they get Rex AI on the draft so they can check the next bid before they send.

What happens if a shared review is sent to a free bidder?

If a company shares a review with a free-bidder account, KNTRCTR sends an in-app and email notification that feedback was shared.

The free bidder is prompted to subscribe to view the shared feedback. That same subscription includes Rex AI on the draft.

When does review editing get locked?

Review editing is locked once both parties submit their reviews, or when 90 days have passed from the review request date.

After lock, you can still contact KNTRCTR support to request a temporary unlock for corrections.

Can I choose whether the other company can read my review?

Yes. When you complete a peer review, you'll see a Share this review with [company] checkbox.

If that box is on, your written review can be shown to the reviewee once review visibility rules are met.

If that box is off, the reviewee does not see your written review.

A fair, locked review is how the next prime knows the job without calling your last one. Invited bidding stays free. The record is there when you want the work to speak.
