What It Is
"Secret Response" is a paid service: your bid on a project and your price will be hidden from other builders and will never be publicly available. Once the service is activated, all further communication will be private. Only you and the client will be able to see the bid, the correspondence, and the price.
When It Makes Sense
On projects with high competition, a secret response prevents other builders from seeing your approach. On complex projects, there's no point in showing everyone how to implement it. This is your expertise – it's valuable.
How to Enable
When creating a bid – via MCP or on the website – select "secret" and pay (instead of paying, you can apply a coupon if you have one).
