**Arphie**

Connected company knowledge and AI-assisted first drafts for proposals, security questionnaires and recurring diligence work.

Teams that want connected knowledge to inform recurring proposal and diligence responses.

Verify source refresh behavior, permission scope and the exact document formats in your workflow.

## AI RFP drafting from connected company knowledge

Prepare one current document and one restricted source. After the first draft, revise the approved document and ask a specialist with narrow permissions to answer the same question. Record when the revision becomes visible and which source excerpt is available.

### A representative pilot

Keep the before-and-after answer, document version and reviewer decision. An answer that changes quickly still needs the right scope and permissions. Use the pilot record to separate source-refresh maintenance from the work of approving a reusable company statement.

[Record each claim, source and decision in the evidence review register](https://rfpaiplatform.com/guides/evidence-review/). [Budget the proposed configuration and internal review effort](https://rfpaiplatform.com/pricing/).

## Pricing plans

Pricing on request

Trial terms not confirmed; ask the vendor

Price and trial terms below come from the shared product snapshot. Confirm the order form’s billing period, seats, response allowances, add-ons and renewal conditions. A public starting amount is not a complete quote for every team.

### Proposed configuration

**Pricing on request**

Confirm licensed users, usage and included services in the written proposal.

[Visit Arphie](https://www.arphie.ai/)

| Scope to verify | Questions for the proposal |
| --- | --- |
| Team access | Which authors, reviewers and external contributors need paid licenses? |
| Response allowance | How are projects, questions and agent usage counted? |
| Knowledge sources | Which connectors and source-refresh controls are included? |
| Review and export | Which approval, audit and document-format features are included? |
| Commercial term | Confirm onboarding, billing, renewal, cancellation and export rights. |

## Customer support

Support quality matters when a submission is due and a source connection, permission or export has failed. We have not independently measured response times or service quality for this product. Ask the vendor to describe the support available under your quoted plan.

- **Onboarding.** Identify who helps import existing answers and establish the first source library.
- **Reviewer training.** Ask how occasional specialists learn evidence inspection and approval without becoming system administrators.
- **Issue escalation.** Demonstrate how a blocked import or export is reported and which team owns resolution.
- **Service hours.** Confirm the hours, channels and contractual response targets applicable to your organization.

| Evaluation area | Current status |
| --- | --- |
| Deployment | Web-based workflow; confirm browser and hosting requirements |
| Support service | Confirm in the proposed contract |
| Training | Ask for onboarding and specialist-reviewer training scope |
| Trial | Trial terms not confirmed; ask the vendor |

## Security features

Product documentation is a starting point for security evaluation. Request the current evidence applicable to your proposed configuration and legal entity. Missing public detail remains an open question, not a finding that a control is absent.

### Document security

- Test whether source visibility follows the reviewer’s permissions and whether restricted reports can remain separate from submitted answers.
- Inspect whether the output includes confidential source excerpts or unintended attachments. Approve the exact final document before sending it.
- Confirm deletion and retention behavior for uploaded documents, generated answers, backups and exported artifacts.

### Access security

Validate authentication, reviewer roles, administrative rights and the permission scope of each knowledge connection. Use a restricted test account; an administrator demonstration cannot establish what an occasional specialist can see.

### Security reports and certifications

Ask for current reports or certificates, their scope, covered entity and relevant exceptions. Distinguish the application vendor’s evidence from its infrastructure provider’s certification. Confirm model-training, subprocessors and international processing terms in the contract rather than inferring them from a badge.

## User management features

The important question is whether the team can preserve accountability as work is reassigned. A response owner should know which specialist owns the answer, whether it is approved and what changed after approval. Validate the actual workflow rather than assuming all collaboration tools have the same controls.

- Define separate author, specialist reviewer and final approver responsibilities.
- Check the handling of reassignment, absence and reopened questions.
- Restrict access to evidence that is unrelated to a contributor’s section.
- Confirm what approval and access history can be retained or exported.

## Document management features

Connected company knowledge and AI-assisted first drafts for proposals, security questionnaires and recurring diligence work.

The following capability names are recorded as vendor descriptions. They are not an independently measured performance result.

- AI response drafting — Generates first-pass RFP and questionnaire answers grounded in approved company knowledge, with autofill for repetitive responses.
- Tone & style adaptation — Learns team preferences and writing style to improve future response quality.
- Live content retrieval — Connects to Google Drive, SharePoint, Notion, Confluence, Seismic, Highspot, and Slack for real-time retrieval.
- Content freshness management — Handles duplicate Q&A cleanup, legacy-library migration via Smart Merge, and automatically flags stale content when source documents are updated.
- Source citations — Lets reviewers verify where each answer came from and how reliable it is.
- Analytics & dashboards — Provides activity metrics, statistics, and process visibility across RFP and questionnaire programs.
- Chat & messaging access — Exposes agentic chat, project status, assignments, due dates, and metrics inside supported AI tools, IDEs, and command-line workflows.
- Document automation — Detects questions and sections in Excel and Word files and exports completed responses back to the original format.

Use your own spreadsheet, narrative document and portal request to test these capabilities. Include mandatory fields, tables, character limits and attachments. Compare the export with the customer’s original instructions and record the repair effort.

### Reporting

Ask how draft changes, owner assignments, evidence references and final approvals are recorded. A project-complete indicator should not replace a record of the exact answer approved for submission. Determine whether history remains available after source updates and project closure.

### Customization

Validate tone, terminology and output formatting with the customer’s instructions. Confirm whether reusable text can be constrained to a product, region, entity or period. Customer-specific commitments should not silently become globally approved knowledge.

### Questions, collaboration and review

Change a connected approved source and demonstrate when the next answer reflects the revision.

For each unresolved question, identify a responsible person and an explicit next action. Keep the missing information visible through review. A generated answer must not turn an unknown capability into an unapproved promise.
