Short answer

How can I make a proposal using my AI?

Your AI uses the Better Proposals MCP to browse your available templates and then generates a specific proposal based on your requirements. You'll get a ready-to-send document sitting in your dashboard.

The outcomes.

Where your requests land.

Depending on what you ask, your AI will produce one of these results.

READY

A finished proposal

The AI builds a complete document. You'll find a new proposal waiting in your Better Proposals account.

TEMPLATE

A selected template

If you aren't ready to build, the AI can just show you what templates you have. You'll get a list of options to choose from.

HUMAN

Manual review needed

The AI handles the structure and data, but you should always check the final numbers and terms. You'll need to do the final sign-off yourself.

LIST

An inventory of styles

The AI can pull a list of your existing layouts. This helps you decide which direction to take before any document is actually created.

The workflow

What your AI does when you ask for a proposal.

The AI handles the heavy lifting of searching and building, leaving you to just provide the details.

  1. Find the right style

    The AI looks through your Better Proposals library to find a template that fits your specific deal or industry.

FAQ

How this task behaves.

  • 01

    Can the AI edit an existing proposal?

    No. The current tools only allow the AI to list templates and create brand new proposals.

  • 02

    Does the AI decide the pricing on its own?

    No. The AI only uses the pricing information you provide in your chat prompt to build the document.

  • 03

    Will the AI send the proposal to my client automatically?

    No. The AI creates the proposal in your account, but you must be the one to hit the send button.

  • 04

    Can I see a list of my templates first?

    Yes. You can ask the AI to show you your templates before you tell it to create anything.

  • 05

    Do I need to open the Better Proposals website to do this?

    No. Once you connect, you do everything through your AI client.
