The gates that apply here
A gated milestone cannot start until the gate before it is approved. This is enforced in the platform, and an override needs a clause in your contract and is logged with the reason.

How bidding works here
Bids are blind, structured and inside a band.
Writers cannot see each other’s bids, the number of bids, or who else is bidding, at any point, including after you select. Every bid states the same things in the same shape, so you compare scope against scope rather than sales pitch against sales pitch.
- What every bid must stateMandatory
Price and currency, milestone and gate plan, timeline, revision rounds, exclusions, AI-use declaration, relevant experience.
- Default orderingRelevance
Never price. No bid is ever labelled cheapest or best value.
- Losing bidders learnOutcome only
That the brief closed. Never the winning price.
Priced by the kind of document, how complex it is and how soon it is due.
A guide so you can budget, not a quote and not a cap. You choose a budget range when you post a brief, and every bid you receive falls inside it.
