A proposal born from a single sentence

in short: how this gets solved

Does every proposal take two hours to put together by hand? Here is how it gets solved.

An AI proposal generator in Botseller builds each quote from what your system already holds: the deal parameters and a knowledge base with your catalog, prices and terms. A rep describes what the customer asked for and gets a finished document inside the deal minutes later, not a skeleton to fill in.

The difference from a template document is fundamental. The AI does more than drop in a customer name: it takes current prices from the knowledge base, applies your delivery and payment terms, and assembles the line-up around this request instead of copying an old proposal full of somebody else’s items. When data is missing, the AI asks the rep rather than inventing a number.

The document goes out from the same window where the conversation happened, so speed of reply becomes a sales argument: while a competitor is still formatting a file, your customer is reading your offer. Setup runs without a developer. Available from the Business plan.

where the AI gets its numbers

A knowledge base instead of a rep’s memory

Your catalog, price list and commercial terms live in the company knowledge base. The AI builds every proposal from that single source, so the figures are always current.

why this happens

Why a proposal eats two hours per customer

A classic proposal is assembled from five sources at once: the price list in one spreadsheet, stock levels with the logistics lead, delivery terms buried in a chat with the boss, the template in a document, the legal details in the CRM. A rep pulls all of it into one file by hand, so even a standard offer takes hours and a complex one stretches across days. Owners say it plainly: a detailed proposal can take weeks to produce.

While the file is being formatted, the customer is not waiting in silence. They sent the request to several suppliers, but the first to reply is usually not the best one, just the fastest. So a slow proposal loses before the prices are compared: the decision is made emotionally before your file is opened. Speed here is not a courtesy, it is a filter.

There is a second cost: copy-paste. A rep takes the last proposal as a base but forgets to change one line, and the customer receives somebody else’s prices or somebody else’s city in their own offer. That mistake costs more than the time it saved: it costs trust. And when the rep leaves, the whole calculation logic they kept in their head walks out with them.

what changes

What changes when an AI assembles the proposal

A customer request turns into an offer in minutes: the AI pulls items, prices and terms from the knowledge base, formats the document and drops it into the deal. The rep tweaks the details and hits send instead of building a file from scratch for two hours.

So the daily output is no longer three proposals but as many as there were requests, and quality does not drift: every proposal carries the same current prices and terms from a single source. Copy-paste errors disappear along with the copy-paste.

Most importantly, the calculation logic stops living in one person’s head: it is written into the company knowledge base, so a new hire sends correct proposals in their first week rather than after six months of training.

what people ask before launching

Where does the AI get prices and catalog items?

From the knowledge base in your workspace: you upload the price list, the catalog and your commercial terms. The AI builds proposals only from that data, so the figures in the offer match your own documents.

What if the AI gets a number wrong?

The document is shown to the rep as a draft before it goes out. When data is missing, the AI asks a question instead of inventing a value. The final word always belongs to a human.

Can we keep our own branded proposal template?

Yes, the structure and formatting are configured to your format during setup. The AI changes the content to fit the deal, while the look of the document stays yours.

How is this different from parsing incoming quotes into the CRM?

It is the neighbouring job: there the AI reads inbound documents and lays the line items into a deal, here it assembles your own outbound offer. Many companies switch on both.
