1. RFP / proposal first draft from your own material
Every RFP is answered by hand — a consultant hunts through old proposals and case studies, copies boilerplate, and rewrites the same answers for the tenth time.
Trigger: Email / Webhook (RFP received)
How the workflow runs
- Trigger
RFP arrives. An Email/Webhook trigger receives the RFP document.
- Knowledge
Draw from your library. A Knowledge node holds past proposals, case studies and standard answers to ground the draft.
- Agent
Draft tailored responses. An Agent node answers each requirement in your voice, reusing what fits and flagging what needs input.
- Approval
Lead reviews before it goes out. An Approval node keeps the human as the author of record.
- Output
Return the draft. An Output node delivers the draft to the owner to finish.
Channels & connectors
- Webhook
- Knowledge base
- Approval / HITL
Outcome
A tailored first draft in minutes, grounded in your real material — the consultant edits instead of starting cold.
Why it helps
Removes the copy-hunt-rewrite cycle that makes proposals slow, while keeping a human owning the final response.
Build spec
1 agent — 1 drafting agent; the lead's sign-off is an Approval node.
System prompt (paste-ready)
You are a proposal-drafting agent for {{company}}. For each requirement in the RFP, draft a tailored response in the company's voice, reusing relevant past proposals, case studies and standard answers from Knowledge. Ground claims (credentials, references, metrics) in the library material — never invent a client, certification, or capability the firm doesn't have. Where a requirement needs a subject-matter input you can't source, flag it clearly as [NEEDS INPUT] instead of guessing.MCP connectors
- RFP intake (email/upload) — via Email/Webhook trigger
- Proposal library / DMS — via a Tool (MCP) node
Built-in tools
- document parsing (RFP document)
- knowledge_search (past proposals, case studies, standard answers)
Guardrails
- Claims are grounded in the library — no invented clients, certifications or capabilities
- Gaps are flagged [NEEDS INPUT] for a human, never bluffed
- The proposal lead reviews and owns the final draft at the Approval node before anything is sent
Output & delivery
The agent produces a tailored first draft grounded in your library with gaps flagged; the lead reviews it at the Approval node, and an Output node returns the draft to the owner to finish.
