PlanHub's history begins in 2008, when its founders teamed up with experienced contractors who all faced the same challenge: their bidding processes were tedious, time-consuming, and disconnected. By 2015, PlanHub was born as a digital marketplace built to streamline collaboration among construction professionals. The company was founded on a mission to make bidding easier and help construction professionals win more work. Over time, PlanHub evolved from a digital marketplace into a comprehensive preconstruction platform that connects contractors, simplifies workflows, and transforms bidding chaos into opportunity. It expanded its network to include general contractors, subcontractors, suppliers, and owners/developers, and added tools beyond bidding, such as takeoff and estimation, project management, and networking features. By the mid-2020s, PlanHub reported an industry-leading preconstruction network with 55,000+ general contractors, 60,000+ projects annually, 400,000+ subcontractors, 400+ trades, and 30,000+ suppliers. The platform is cloud-based and services all of the United States. It has received recognition from G2, Capterra, and the Inc. 5000. In 2025, PlanHub began rolling out PlanHub 2.0, which the company describes as redefining how construction pros connect, collaborate, and win, with AI-driven insights, predictive analytics, and more powerful networking tools. The company stated that PlanHub 2.0 would roll out through 2025, doubling down on integrations, AI-driven takeoffs, bid tracking, and making the platform the go-to destination for every contractor.
