Bid Peek

You’re invited to this month’s bid board

It only helps on Layer 1 bid

What it is

Before you build your PBS bid, see where the pilots senior to you are bidding. Put the pairings you want into layers, and Bid Peek shows when a senior is going for the same one — and suggests similar pairings that avoid the overlap.

1Get the iPhone app

Bid Peek is shared through TestFlight, Apple’s free app for trying apps before they are on the App Store.

  1. Send your Apple ID email and name below.
  2. When you are added, Apple emails you an invite from TestFlight.
  3. Install TestFlight from the App Store, open the email on your iPhone and tap View in TestFlight › Install.
