Riposte is RFP response software for boutique enterprise-software implementation partners: Salesforce, ServiceNow, NetSuite, HubSpot and similar firms.

Illustration of a Riposte response pack for a fictional NetSuite RFP. Four requirements are extracted from the RFP and matched to approved evidence: replacing Dynamics GP is Ready, bank interface files are Missing info with no source matched, and the case-study and key-personnel requirements are Partial. A draft response cites two approved case studies and flags that a third is still required.

Walkthrough

Watch Riposte turn an RFP and approved company material into organized requirements, evidence matches, gap flags and grounded responses for review.

Silent 12-second walkthrough. All companies, people and data shown are illustrative samples. 1. A client RFP opens: “Sales Cloud Implementation” for Meridian Health Partners. 2. Three pieces of approved evidence appear: a past healthcare proposal, a Regional Hospital — Sales Cloud case study, and the resume of Jane Okafor, Salesforce lead. 3. Riposte builds a compliance matrix from 10 extracted requirements and checks each one against the approved evidence. 4. “Vendor must demonstrate prior healthcare implementation experience” is linked to the Regional Hospital case study as its source and marked Ready. Role-based access controls and end-user and administrator training are Ready; data migration with validation and a rollback plan is Partial. 5. “Optional managed-services pricing for ongoing administration” is flagged Missing info: no approved pricing on file — needs input. 6. A draft response on healthcare implementation experience appears, grounded in the Regional Hospital case study. 7. The response pack assembles: opportunity brief, compliance matrix, evidence matches, proposal draft, gaps to resolve (1 missing, 1 partial, for review) and clarifying questions.

Sound familiar?

Every RFP starts the same way. It doesn’t have to.

Most of the effort goes into finding what your company already knows. Riposte does that groundwork, and your approved material stays ready for the next opportunity.

  • Today: Searching folders and old proposals for answers you know you've written before.

    With RiposteRiposte searches your approved proposals, case studies and resumes, and connects relevant passages to each requirement.

    With RiposteExperience and credentials you add once stay in your workspace, ready for every future opportunity.

  • Today: Combing a long RFP by hand to pull out every requirement.

    With RiposteYour team starts from a draft response pack grounded in your own material, with sources attached.

Build your company knowledge once. Every new RFP draws on it.

How it works

From company knowledge to a first pass.

Set up your knowledge once, then run each new RFP through the same four steps.

  1. Step 01

    Add your company knowledge

    Upload approved proposals, case studies, resumes, capabilities and other supporting material.

  2. Step 02

    Upload an RFP

    Add the opportunity your team wants to assess and respond to.

  3. Step 03

    Run First Pass

    Riposte prepares the opportunity brief, organized requirements, evidence matches, compliance view and draft response pack.

  4. Step 04

    Review and resolve

    Review supporting sources, address gaps, strengthen responses and prepare the final submission.

Everything Riposte generates is a working draft for your team to review. Nothing is ever submitted automatically. Your team decides what goes into the final response.

What your team gets

A first pass your reviewers can actually work from.

Riposte shows what the RFP requires, what your approved material supports, and what still needs a person.

Give reviewers a structured first pass

Requirements organized into a compliance view, each with a status and the action still needed.

Find relevant evidence faster

Approved proposals, case studies, resumes and capability material are connected to the requirements they support.

Identify unsupported requirements early

Requirements without supporting evidence are flagged instead of being filled with invented content.

Reuse company knowledge across opportunities

The material you approve stays in your workspace and is put to work on every new RFP.

Trace important claims to approved sources

Draft responses show which approved document a claim came from, so reviewers can check it.

The goal is not to invent an answer for every requirement. It is to make the evidence — and the gaps — visible.

Examples shown use a fictional sample RFP.

Trust and review

Designed for private proposal workflows.

Riposte works from the material you approve, shows where support comes from, and leaves every final call to your team.

  • Approved company material

    Evidence comes from the proposals, case studies, resumes and capability documents you choose to provide.

  • Source-grounded responses

    Draft responses are built from matched evidence, so reviewers can trace important claims back to a source.

  • Missing evidence stays visible

    Unsupported requirements are flagged for review instead of being filled with invented content.

  • Human review before use

    Riposte doesn't submit anything automatically. Outputs are working drafts for your team to review and edit.

  • Private proposal workflows

Frequently asked questions

  • Riposte is RFP response software for boutique enterprise-software implementation partners. It reads each RFP, organizes its requirements, matches them to your approved proposals, case studies and resumes, flags what's missing and prepares a draft response pack for your team to review.

  • Boutique implementation partners working with Salesforce, ServiceNow, NetSuite, HubSpot and similar platforms that respond to formal RFPs, including SLED and other structured procurement. It suits teams that reuse the same proposals, case studies and resumes across many opportunities.

  • Riposte starts from your approved source documents rather than a library of pre-written answers. Each requirement is matched to supporting evidence, requirements without support are flagged instead of filled in, and draft responses point back to the sources they came from. Pricing is per RFP, with no seat pricing.

  • Yes. A Free Workspace lets you set up your company workspace and add and organize approved company knowledge at no cost. Running a real RFP requires First RFP or Riposte Express.

  • Approved material your team already reuses: past proposals, case studies, resumes, capability statements, methodologies and certifications. You can start with a few and add more over time. Only add documents you're authorized to share, and please don't upload classified, protected health or export-controlled material.

  • You upload the RFP and select Run First Pass. Riposte works in the background (you can close your browser) and prepares an opportunity brief, organized requirements, evidence matches, a compliance view and a draft response pack. When it's ready, your team reviews it, resolves gaps and prepares the final submission.

  • The requirement is marked as missing evidence, not filled in with invented content. That doesn't mean your company lacks the capability, only that your workspace doesn't yet contain approved material showing it. You can add evidence or answer the requirement yourself.

  • First RFP is a $299 USD one-time purchase that takes one real RFP through the complete workflow: First Pass, review and resolve, and a final submission draft you can export as PDF or DOCX. It's available once per workspace.

  • The final submission draft can be exported as PDF or DOCX, so your team can finish formatting and submit it through the client's own process.

  • Riposte Express is $449 USD per month and includes 5 new RFPs per billing period, your reusable company knowledge base and team roles, with no seat pricing.

  • Once a Riposte Express workspace has used the 5 RFPs included in its current billing period, a workspace owner or admin can buy an Additional RFP for $149 USD. You're never charged automatically for extra usage: each additional RFP is a separate, explicit purchase.

  • No. Everything Riposte produces is a working draft. Your team reviews, edits and approves the response, and submits it to the client yourselves.

  • Your workspace is private to your team, and uploaded files are stored privately. To prepare first passes, relevant excerpts are processed by our AI model provider. Riposte does not intentionally use your content to train its own foundation model. The privacy policy covers this in detail.

Your next RFP shouldn’t start with a blank page.
