Getting Started

Creating your first proposal

From New Proposal to a saved draft, step by step.

Create the draft

  1. Click New Proposal from the dashboard.
  2. Select a proposal type — Commercial, Technical, Full-Scope or Custom.
  3. Enter the basic details: client or company name, contact person, project name and a brief.
  4. Choose the sections you want for that proposal type, then add a prompt. If it's your first time, click Use an example instead.
  5. Click Use an example again for a different example — they vary by proposal type.
  6. Quiip creates a draft and opens the editor, where you add pricing, timelines and any detail the AI flagged as something it can't generate on its own.
  7. Click Save version to keep it for later. The proposal now appears on your dashboard with the status Draft.

Reworking a draft

Nothing in the draft is fixed. You can regenerate at three levels:

  • One sectionClick Regenerate on the section and add a prompt describing what should change.
  • The whole proposalUse Regenerate all to redo multiple sections at once.
  • A word or sentenceDouble-click the text, choose Edit with AI, add your prompt and click Apply.
Why it matters

This flow exists so a new proposal never starts from a blank page.
