Benefits

Better Proposals, Less Overhead

The Proposal Builder helps everyone involved in winning and delivering work. Start drafting immediately, no account needed.

Solo Surveyors

Stop fighting Word templates. Build and send proposals without the formatting headaches.

Small Firms

Standardize your proposals across the team with reusable section templates and consistent pricing.

Project Managers

Build accurate estimates with the Estimate Assistant, then generate service line items automatically.

Business Development

Send branded proposals that lay out scope and pricing so clients can say yes faster.

Administrators

Track proposal status from draft through acceptance, and clone past proposals for similar jobs.

Leadership

See where every proposal stands, from draft to accepted, in one place.

Document Builder

Build Proposals with Structured Sections

Outline, edit, preview

Use the sidebar to organize sections, then edit each one with a rich-text editor. Merge tags resolve in real time as you type.

Section Templates

Start with built-in templates for Header, Intro, Services, Terms, and Signature blocks. Add custom sections for anything else.

Merge Tags

Insert dynamic tags like {{PROJECT.NAME}} and {{CLIENT.EMAIL}} that automatically resolve to your proposal details.

Reusable Snippets

Save any section as a reusable snippet. Drop your standard scope language, terms, or intro text into future proposals.

Services & Pricing

Pricing Tables, Calculated Automatically

Scope and pricing in one table

Build your scope of services with a pricing table that totals itself. Need multiple Services sections for phased work? Add as many as you want.

Line Item Editing

Add service line items with name, quantity, unit (hour, day, or each), and rate. Line totals compute automatically.

Subtotal, Tax, and Total

See your subtotal, optional tax, and total update in real time as you edit. Totals are recomputed on the server to ensure accuracy.

Multi-Currency Support

Select from common currencies (USD, CAD, AUD, EUR, GBP, and more) and all monetary values format correctly throughout the proposal and PDF.

Estimate Assistant

Build Estimates from Roles, Tasks, and Disbursements

Your numbers stay internal, the client sees the total

The Estimate Assistant works like the spreadsheet-based estimating many surveyors already do, but it lives inside your proposal. Save your default roles and rates so the next estimate is faster.

Role-Based Labor Planning

Define your team roles (Project Manager, Field Crew, Design Team) with hourly or daily rates, then allocate hours per task.

Contingency and Disbursements

Add a labor contingency percentage plus disbursements for travel, accommodation, meals, equipment, mileage, and custom categories.

One-Click Apply to Services

Generate detailed or summary service rows from your estimate and push them into your pricing table. Replace or append to existing rows.

Proposal Management

Track, Clone, and Manage Your Proposals

Find any proposal in seconds

The proposal manager shows every proposal you've created. Search, filter by status, clone for similar jobs, or delete what you don't need.

Status Tracking

Track each proposal through Draft, Submitted, Accepted, and Rejected stages with automatic date stamps.

Search and Filter

Find any proposal quickly by searching title, project, or client. Filter by status or job scope to focus on what matters.
