What it does
Monitors a shared bids inbox for emails carrying an RFP attachment. It summarizes the opportunity, checks scope, deadline, and value against your firm's capability profile, and makes a bid / no-bid recommendation. High-fit RFPs become a pipeline record; low-fit ones get a polite decline drafted for review.
When to use it
Use it when RFPs flood a generic inbox and someone has to open each one just to decide whether it's worth pursuing. This filters noise so your team only spends time on opportunities that actually fit.
How it works
- 1A new email with a PDF attachment arrives in the monitored Gmail inbox.
- 2OpenAI summarizes the RFP and scores fit (scope, deadline, contract value) against your profile.
- 3A logic step branches on the bid / no-bid recommendation.
- 4Bid: an Airtable opportunity record is created with the summary and fit score.
- 5No-bid: a decline reply is drafted in Gmail for a human to send.
- 6A Slack note posts the decision and reasoning to the bids channel.
