Why the Octopus? Meet Lucy!
Our mascot is not just any octopus; she's a glass octopus, a unique creature that perfectly ties into our "lucid" name. We affectionately call her Lucy. Octopuses are known for being smart, agile, quick-moving, and effective – qualities that deeply resonate with the core values of LucidBid. Combining the clarity of "lucid" with the intelligence and efficiency of the octopus, we believe Lucy is a fantastic representation of our brand and what we're striving to achieve for our users.
Is LucidBid an app or a website?
LucidBid is primarily a web-based platform, accessible through your browser on any device. While we don't have a dedicated mobile app yet, the website is optimized for a seamless experience on your phone.
