RateDeed

Cancels one of the homeowner's quote requests and notifies the contractor. If the contractor already sent a quote that is still open, that quote is declined. Requests whose quote was accepted are jobs and cannot be cancelled here. Confirm with the homeowner first. Calling it again for a cancelled request changes nothing. Requires a linked RateDeed account (scope quotes:write).

Get a contractor's RateDeed profile by slug (from search_contractors): services, service area, rating, review summary, license verification, contact details and escrow_enabled. Read-only.

Shows the status of the homeowner's quote requests: pending (waiting for the contractor), quoted (with the quote total, card processing fee, payment schedule and expiry), accepted (with job and escrow status), quote_declined, quote_expired or cancelled. Pass request_id for one request, or omit it to list the most recent ones. Read-only. Requires a linked RateDeed account (scope quotes:read).

Suggest remodel and repair projects for a space in the home, ranked for the homeowner's goals and budget, with rough US cost tiers and the trades that do the work. For a photo-based plan, the homeowner can use the remodel_ideas_url. Read-only.

Find contractors near a US ZIP code for a job described in plain English (e.g. "water stain on my ceiling", "replace old carpet with hardwood"). Returns ranked local pros with ratings, distance, license verification and escrow_enabled (whether RateDeed can send them a quote request). Read-only.

Read-only. With contractor_slug, checks whether that pro can receive a quote request; otherwise picks up to 3 escrow-enabled pros near the ZIP for the job. Returns each pro with a prefilled RateDeed link for homeowners without a linked account. With a linked account, send the request directly with submit_quote_request. Nothing is sent or charged by this tool.

Sends a quote request from the signed-in homeowner to one escrow-enabled contractor and returns a request_id. This shares the homeowner's name and the project details (title, description, ZIP, timeline, budget) with that contractor and starts a RateDeed conversation with them. It does not charge anything or commit the homeowner to hire. Before calling, show the homeowner the contractor and every field that will be sent, and get their approval; ask again if any detail changes. Only contractors with escrow_enabled=true can receive requests. Use a new idempotency_key for each new request and reuse it when retrying the same one; after a timeout or error, call get_request_status without request_id to check whether it was sent before retrying. Requires a linked RateDeed account (scope quotes:write).
