Time saved

From days to three minutes.

Manually building a compliance matrix, kickoff deck, and questions list for a single RFP is an 8–16 hour effort across a proposal manager and a coordinator. The Kickoff Accelerator does the first draft of all four in about three minutes — and emails you when it's done so you can close the tab and get back to work.
