RFP season is a tax. We automated it.

Andrew Barrow··3 min read

Every agency knows the RFP grind: a new template, the same questions you've answered a hundred times, and a weekend lost to copy-pasting your capabilities into someone else's format. It's a tax on growth — paid in the hours of your most senior people.

The work that isn't the work

Responding to an RFP should be about the pitch — the idea, the strategy, the reason you'll win. Instead, most of the time goes to formatting and boilerplate. The actual differentiator gets the scraps of attention left over after the busywork.

Win the pitch on the idea. Don't lose the week to the template.

ArcPlanner's RFP fill takes a template and completes it from your agency profile, capabilities, and branding — so the grind collapses to minutes and your team spends its time on the part that actually wins business. Automate the tax. Keep the craft.
