AI prepares the RFQ.
Your team decides the bid.

Draftwrangler is a human-in-the-loop copilot for proposal teams running five to twenty opportunities a quarter. Drop in a federal solicitation or commercial RFQ package and you get a structured, source-tracked bid workspace in minutes — not a black-box draft you have to trust on its face.

A look at the workspace

The bid workspace, end to end.

One screen for the opportunity summary, cited requirements, risk register, and the bid score — every artifact tied back to the page it came from.

How it runs

Four steps. Every artifact is yours to overrule.

The system drafts, classifies, and surfaces risk. Pricing, terms, certifications, and the final submission remain human calls.

01Step

Drop in the package

Federal solicitation, commercial RFQ, or amendment — PDF, DOCX, XLSX, or plain text. Amendments show a diff against the prior file before anything is updated.

02Step

Read the workspace

Opportunity summary with solicitation number, buyer, NAICS, set-aside, contract type; CLINs; cited requirements; risk register; ambiguous buyer questions; compliance matrix.

03Step

Approve the numbers

Pricing is computed only from the costs you supply — material, labor, machine, outside processing, freight, overhead, margin. The 0–100 bid score carries strengths, concerns, and an effort estimate.

04Step

Ship the human packet

Regenerate any section individually — cover letter, technical, past performance, exceptions — without overwriting a teammate’s edits. The submission is yours.

What you get back

Inside the bid workspace

Every output carries the page it came from, so disagreements happen on substance instead of over whose interpretation is right.

Opportunity summary
Structured intake

Solicitation number, buyer / contracting activity, NAICS, set-aside type, contract type, response deadline, and place of performance — surfaced in one card so the team starts from the same page.

NAICS
332312
Set-aside
Small business
Type
FFP
Line-item CLINs
Schedule of items

Each CLIN with description, quantity, unit of issue, and the page reference it came from.

Cited requirements
Page-level provenance

Every L-referenced requirement attached to the page and paragraph it was extracted from — so traceability survives an audit.

Severity-tagged risk register
What could go wrong

Risks tagged Low / Medium / High with the section they came from, so the capture lead sees them in the order that matters.

[Section M.3] Past performance depth
High
[Section L.3.1] KTR availability
Medium
[Section C] Inspection point TBD
Low
Missing-information highlights
What's not in the package

Items the solicitation requires but the package doesn’t address — plus the questions it asks but doesn’t define.

Editable compliance matrix
One row per requirement

A row per cited requirement that the team checks, restates, and signs off on — not a static PDF.

Amendment handling

Amendments show diffs before anything in the workspace updates.

When a new solicitation file drops, it is shown as a structured diff against the prior version. Added CLINs, revised evaluation criteria, new set-aside language — you see exactly what changed and decide whether to merge. Nothing in the workspace is silently overwritten.

  • Cited at the paragraph level, not just the section.
  • Teammates see the same diff; no parallel drafts.
  • Merge is a deliberate action, not a side effect.

Scope, plain language

A complement to your capture stack — not a replacement.

Built for this release
  • Federal solicitations (RFPs, RFQs, sources sought, amendments)
  • Commercial RFQ packages from prime contractors
  • Multi-CLIN schedules with mixed units of issue
  • Set-aside language and small-business rules
  • Section L / Section M cross-walking
  • Past-performance narrative drafting from your prior CPARS-style records
Out of scope for now
  • CUI / ITAR-controlled technical data
  • Classified material
  • Automatic submission to any government system
  • CMMC certification workflows
  • Replacing your existing capture platform
  • Generating supplier quotes we didn’t ask you for

If a solicitation pulls in CUI, ITAR, or classified material, route it through your existing controlled environment.

Pricing math

Pricing is math, not guesswork.

Every line carries the inputs that produced it. If a CLIN needs a number the package didn’t supply, it shows up on the missing-information list instead of being silently invented.

Required inputs

  • Materialsku · unit cost · qty
  • Laborhours · rate · labor cat.
  • Machinehours · machine · rate
  • Outside processingvendor · service · cost
  • Freightmode · weight · destination
  • Overheadpool · rate · basis
  • Margintarget % · floor

What the platform does not do

  • Invent unit prices you didn’t supply.
  • Fabricate supplier quotes.
  • Pick a margin for you.
  • Submit anything on your behalf.

No. The platform drafts, classifies, and surfaces risk; humans approve pricing, terms, certifications, and the actual submission. Every section — cover letter through exceptions — can be regenerated individually without overwriting a teammate’s edits, so the final packet is always a human artifact.
