A leading SaaS platform helping small and mid-sized businesses manage their proposals set out to answer two critical questions:
1. What actually makes a proposal successful?
2. How can AI make it easier for users to create high-performing proposal templates?
The company had years of proposal data but lacked clear, data-driven insights into what elements made a proposal more likely to convert. Additionally, the onboarding process for new users was slowed by the challenge of building a proposal template from scratch.
Gradient Ascent supported this client through two major initiatives:
Phase 1: Data Analysis for Proposal Performance
We analyzed historical proposal data to identify success-driving factors such as structure, pricing clarity, and content strategy. These insights improved their default templates and informed a high-performing proposals report.
Phase 2: AI-Powered Template Generation
We built a Generative AI system allowing users to enter a website or existing proposal, extract relevant details, and generate a ready-to-edit proposal template inside the platform. Sensitive legal text was preserved while other sections were rewritten using best-practice frameworks.
The AI-powered template builder enabled faster onboarding, particularly for users without prior experience writing proposals. As adoption grows, the client expects higher engagement and stronger customer outcomes, reinforcing its market leadership in AI-enhanced proposal management.
