Foveate for Proposal Managers
From RFP to finished response, without the handoffs.
Break the RFP into a compliance matrix, draft the response from your past work, score it the way the panel will, and design it in the same place.
What changes for proposal managers
No requirement slips
Every requirement lands on one checklist, and the draft is checked against it before you file.
No blank pages
Drafts start from your past projects, resumes, and proposals, not from last year's file.
No InDesign bottleneck
The team edits the deck directly in your own template, and exports the PDF the portal wants.
The whole response, in one place
From the day the RFP lands to the day you file, with the requirements, the draft, and the design in one workspace.
RFP Research
Break down the RFP before the kickoff.
Upload the RFP and any addenda. Foveate pulls out the scope, schedule, evaluation criteria, and every requirement into an editable compliance matrix.
- Every requirement on one checklist, with revision history
- Key findings and red flags
- A response plan built from the RFP
- Addenda in PDF or Word read alongside the RFP
Proposal drafting
Draft from work you've already done.
Foveate drafts the written response section by section from the RFP and your Studio: past projects, team resumes, and past proposals. Export it to Word when it needs a final pass.
- Sections drafted against the RFP's own requirements
- Past projects, resumes, and proposals pulled from your Studio
- A Word export for final edits
- The finished proposal filed back into Studio for next time
Compliance check
Score it the way the panel will.
Before you file, Foveate checks the draft against every requirement, marked covered, partial, or missing. Then it scores the draft using the RFP's own evaluation criteria and weights.
- Covered, partial, or missing for every requirement
- A score weighted by the RFP's criteria
- The gaps named while there's still time to fix them
No phasing dates
Nothing in the draft

Design it, send it, see who read it.

Questions proposal managers ask
- Can Foveate draft the written proposal?
- Yes. It drafts the response section by section from the RFP and your Studio of past projects, resumes, and past proposals. You can export the draft to Word for a final pass.
- How does the compliance check work?
- Foveate first builds a compliance matrix of every requirement in the RFP. Before you file, it checks the draft against that matrix, marks each requirement covered, partial, or missing, and scores the draft using the RFP's own criteria and weights.
- Our submissions go through a procurement portal. Does that still work?
- Yes. Export the proposal to PDF for the portal. Use the live link for the shortlist interview, private clients, and the follow-up.
- Can we keep our InDesign templates?
- Yes. Export them from InDesign as HTML5 or PDF, and Foveate rebuilds them as editable pages. Word and PowerPoint files come in as they are.
