    The Problem

    Proposal creation was a bottleneck — each one took 4-6 hours of manual assembly. Project managers juggled Slack, email, and spreadsheets to track 30+ simultaneous engagements, leading to missed deadlines and scope creep.

    Our Approach

    1. **AI Proposal Generator** — GPT-powered tool that drafts proposals from a brief, pulling in relevant case studies and pricing templates
    2. **SOW Builder** — Templatized system ensuring consistent deliverables and timelines
    3. **Project Dashboard** — Real-time view of all engagements with automated status collection from team members
    4. **Automated Alerts** — Slack notifications when tasks slip or budgets approach thresholds

    The Stack - **OpenAI GPT-4** for proposal drafting - **n8n** for automation orchestration - **React + shadcn/ui** for the dashboard - **Slack API** for notifications

    Results

    On-time delivery jumped to 90%, proposals now take under an hour, and scope creep dropped 40%. Each project manager saves 12 hours per week on status reporting alone.

    "We went from missing deadlines to delivering early. SIFTR understood our workflows better than we did."
