From arrival to closeout

A messy RFP packet becomes a clear plan and a checked, provable submission.

An RFP is a thick bid packet. ClearRFP organizes and reads the files. It finds the work, assigns owners, helps you decide, then checks the response and keeps the proof.

AI assists. Your team decides, sets prices, releases, and sends.

Your team decides. ClearRFP prepares.

Legal, financial, operational, and proposal calls stay with your people. ClearRFP gets them ready — nothing more.

  • Key findings keep source references, so you can check them before acting.
  • You confirm, override, and sign off. Nothing is auto-submitted.
  • Legal, pricing, and bid decisions stay with your team.

ClearRFP is not legal advice and never submits proposals on your behalf.

Common questions

No. ClearRFP assists the review but is not legal advice. The final legal review stays with your team or your counsel.

Never. ClearRFP prepares and checks the response, then records the release and the evidence. Sending it stays a human action.

PDF, DOCX, XLSX, and CSV. Scanned pages are covered by an OCR fallback that reads text from images.

Export the decision package and its tables to DOCX and XLSX.

It is a structured recommendation built from compliance, risk, company fit, and pricing evidence. Your team still owns the decision.
