Tender responses that actually meet the brief.
Drop in an RFP. TenderWright parses the brief, drafts every section with AI grounded in your firm's data, enforces the client's format, and ships a single compliant submission ZIP — without ever fabricating a project, fee, or standards reference.
Generic proposal tools don't know what your client wants.
Loopio and Responsive are built for software RFPs and security questionnaires. We're built for the engineering tender you have to file by Friday — page limits, evaluation weights, jurisdiction conventions, the lot.
Knows your procurement
Standards libraries, agency-specific evaluation patterns, and tender source feeds for the jurisdictions where you bid. Built on Aotearoa NZ + Pacific defaults; expanding to additional regions per customer.
Honours the client's format
Upload a client's mandated Word template — TenderWright fills it. Page limits, font requirements, and mandatory sections from the RFP are validated at export time so you never miss compliance.
AI that won't fabricate
Every AI draft is scanned for placeholder leaks, invented
project names, and fake fees. If a fact can't be grounded in
your data, it stays a
[clarify]
placeholder you can review.
Hand us your data.
We hand back a workspace.
Most proposal software ships you an empty database. We don't. Send your past proposals, project portfolio, team CVs, brand voice samples, and the templates your clients keep mandating — we seed your TenderWright workspace from scratch and hand it back configured for day-one use.
- ✓ 2–3 weeks from data hand-off to a workspace your team can use without training-wheels
- ✓ Project library, content library, brand voice, custom DOCX templates — all wired
- ✓ 90-minute calibration call + 30 days post-launch support included
- ✓ Mutual NDA before you send a single file. Your data is never used to train any model.
- Past proposals (won + lost)
- Project portfolio
- Team CVs + qualifications
- Brand voice samples
- Custom client DOCX templates
- Fee rate cards
- Tender agencies you bid into
Press ⌘I.
Tell the AI what you want.
Inline AI rewrite with a real word-level diff. "Make this more concise." "Add the relevant standards." "Bulletize." Accept, reject, or keep tweaking — never overwrite by accident.
- ✓ Selection toolbar — Improve / Shorten / Bulletize / Cite a project
- ✓ Slash commands —
/client,/lead,/feefor instant merge fields - ✓ Live density bar — words, estimated pages, placeholder warnings
- ✓ Substitution-safe — never leaks

Six AI surfaces that compound, not just one chat box.
Drafting is the easy bit. The hard bit is knowing which bids are worth your time, which content actually wins, and proving the ROI at renewal. TenderWright does all six in a single workspace.
Impact Report
A 90-day renewal artifact your CFO can read. Hours saved per AI assist, dollar value at NZ engineering rates, ROI vs. subscription, win-rate uplift, pipeline value moved. Generated on real usage — never fabricated when sample size is too small.
Win Probability
After three resolved proposals, TenderWright predicts win odds for each new bid — calibrated to YOUR firm's history, not generic industry benchmarks. Cold-start honest: "insufficient data" beats a fabricated 50% confidence.
Brand Voice
Train TenderWright on five of your past winning proposals. Every generated section inherits your firm's tone, sentence rhythm, and the technical phrasing your evaluators recognise. No more "AI proposal voice".
Tender Match Analysis
Every monitored tender is scored against your firm's
disciplines, project locations, and fee envelope. Weak signals
(unknown location, missing value) surface as
low signal
rather than a confident-looking 0.5 score.
Compliance Matrix
Auto-built from the parsed RFP. Every requirement mapped to a section, with met / partial / unmet tracking and TF-IDF-suggested cross-references. Page-limit and font-rule enforcement at export time so you never miss compliance.
CV Generator
One-click team CVs from raw qualifications and project data — tailored to the specific tender's discipline weighting. No more copy-paste from old Word files. Saves ~30 min per person, per bid.
The features no horizontal proposal tool has.
These shipped because we built TenderWright with a working engineering practice in the room. Every screen below is in production today.
Readiness gate before every export
Score = RFP attached (35) + 3+ projects linked (25) + 2+ team (20) + structured fee (10) + NZ Govt signals (10). Threshold 80. Plus a hard floor: at least 3 sections drafted, or the gate refuses to bless export — even at score 95. Empty sections render as a bold red DRAFT banner so a reviewer can't miss them.
Resource Planner with overload detection
Per-person utilisation across the next 90 days. A principal engineer at 200%? Three bids competing for the same structural lead? You see it before the bid drops. The Resource Conflicts banner fires inside the proposal builder when a senior engineer is already booked to a competing tender.
Pacific-aware match scoring
Engineering keyword floor: slope stability, footbridge, culvert, earthquake assessment, retaining wall. A Samoa road-slope-stab tender doesn't sit at 23% next to a stationery RFP — it surfaces at 65% where it belongs.
Fee estimator with regional multipliers
ACENZ-aligned rate cards × discipline mix × complexity × location (NZ Metro / NZ Regional / Australia / Pacific 1.45× / Middle East). A Pacific infra bid with Structural + Geotech disciplines computes to $467K in 5 seconds. Exports to XLSX as a 3-sheet schedule the client procurement team can paste straight in.
One-click Submission Pack
The bundle a procurement team expects: proposal.docx, fee_schedule.xlsx, compliance_index.csv, submission_readiness.json, source_rfp/<original>.pdf, manifest.json — zipped, named with the proposal title, ready to attach to the GETS upload page. No more last-minute "did we forget the fee schedule?" panic.
Cron that actually fires
arq worker runs at 02:15, 08:15, 14:15, 17:15, 20:15 UTC every day. Source health is tracked per-feed with last-run-status and last-run-count, surfaced in the UI so you can see at a glance when GETS last sneezed. No "did the scraper run today?" Slack threads.
Capability Statement DOCX
1-page firm overview auto-generated from your team + projects + certs. Audience-tailored (NZ Govt / Council / Pacific / general). Use it as a top-of-funnel handout or RFP Schedule X appendix.
Go/No-Go Decision Engine
10 weighted criteria (Strategic Fit, Technical Capability, Team Availability, Client Relationship, Risk Level, …). Score with bands: Strong Go ≥80, Go 60-79, Conditional 40-59, No-Go <40. No more gut-feeling commits to losing bids.
NZ Govt Procurement Wizard
5-step assessment for GETS / MBIE / council tenders. Capability checklist + team readiness + cover letter generator. No competitor offers NZ-specific procurement guidance baked into the workflow.
Real screens. Real workflows.
Below: actual product screens captured from a live pilot. No marketing mockups — these are the real proposal, readiness, and tender-matching surfaces a bid team works with day to day.
Four export formats. Zero placeholder leaks.
Every export passes a 30-pattern scrubber that strips AI residue

Press-ready PDF with cover, TOC, page numbers, confidentiality notice. Ocean Gradient theme or your firm's brand.
8-slide pitch summary for client kickoffs — exec summary, methodology phases, team cards, fee, risk. Slide-density tuned.
Three sheets: fee summary with live GST formulas, project team, relevant experience. Editable for procurement responses.
Three steps. One ZIP. No misses.
Drop the RFP
TenderWright parses the brief — page limits, evaluation criteria with weights, mandatory sections, key dates. Auto-generates a compliance matrix.
Draft with AI + your firm
Your reference projects, team CVs, brand voice, and content library ground every section. ⌘I to refine. The AI never invents a fee, name, or standards code it can't trace back to your data.
Ship the package
One click downloads a ZIP with five files: proposal DOCX (in your client's required format), fee schedule (Excel), readiness JSON, the source RFP, and a manifest.
Shape the product. Lock in founding pricing.
TenderWright is taking on a small founding cohort of engineering consultancies. Early partners get concierge onboarding, direct input into the roadmap, and founding-partner pricing held for the life of the engagement. We are deliberately keeping the first group small so every practice shapes the product around real tenders.
Vertical beats generic.
Loopio and Responsive are excellent — for software RFPs and security questionnaires. They don't know what an evaluation panel of registered engineers is looking for.
