The proposal editor guides you through creating a document your client can open, discuss, and sign. The main path is a wizard with distinct steps; the most important AI moment is moving from the brief step into scope and estimates.Documentation Index

Wizard steps (typical flow)
- Proposal type — Choose one of the six proposal types. This controls pricing logic, fields, and how Quimy analyzes the brief.
- Project and brief — Add client (pick from CRM or enter manually), brief text (email, notes, transcript, RFP excerpt), optional attachments, and type-specific context (dates, budget, team, contract hints for Staff Augmentation, etc.). Project name is often refined on the next step after analysis.
- Scope and configuration — Requirements, story points or hour estimates (depending on type), phases, pricing adjustments, and Quimy outputs such as risk and governance previews. If the brief changed since the last analysis, the UI can prompt you to re-analyze.
- Further steps — Depending on type and settings: milestones, retainer terms, Terms & documents (clauses, SOW fields), Customize (branding, visibility), then Review and Share.
Exact step labels and count vary by proposal type (for example Staff Augmentation adds team phases). The type → brief → scope pattern is always the core.
Analyze and continue (step 2 → 3)
When your brief is ready, you proceed with Next. If Quimy needs to run (or re-run) the full analysis chain, the button reads Analyze and continue (or your UI language equivalent). That action:- Runs the full analysis pipeline (brief quality, requirements / type-specific analyzers, and related calls such as staffing estimates where applicable).
- Shows a loading state while processing; on failure you can retry or go back and edit the brief.
- Lands you on scope with structured output you can edit.
Analyze with Quimy on the brief step
You can still use Analyze with Quimy on the brief step for discovery-style quality feedback (score, clarifying questions) without leaving the step. That is complementary to Analyze and continue, which runs when you advance to scope and triggers the pipeline that fills requirements and related sections.Related workflows
