Proposal Builder
From scope to signed. One tool. No extras.
Describe your project. trussnote writes the proposal, prices the work in tiers, sends a client-ready link, and captures a legally binding signature. The whole pipeline in one place.
The problem
Every hour you spend on proposals is an hour you are not billing.
You build in a word processor, send a PDF, then wonder if they ever opened it
Getting a signature means a separate e-signature account, another login, another monthly fee
Every proposal your firm sends looks slightly different from the last one
The firms winning the best projects look like they already have the job, before the meeting
The solution
One input. A complete deal-closing document on the other side.
AI writes your cover letter and value proposition, tuned to the actual project, not a fill-in-the-blank template
Present Basic, Standard, and Premium tiers in a single proposal. Clients choose, and they almost always upgrade.
Built-in e-signature. Legally binding under ESIGN and UETA. No third-party account needed.
Know the second they open it. Get notified the moment they sign.
What it actually does
Every feature your close needs. Nothing it does not.
AI that writes like you
Cover letter, value proposition, why choose us, written from your actual scope. Not a template with blanks filled in. Real prose that sounds like your firm, tuned to the specific project.
Three-tier pricing
Present Basic, Standard, and Premium in one proposal. Give clients a choice. Firms using tiers consistently report clients upgrading to Standard or Premium without being asked.
Built-in e-signature
Legally binding under the ESIGN Act and UETA. Every signature captures the signatory name, timestamp, IP address, and a SHA-256 fingerprint of the exact document at the moment of signing.
Open. Signed. Notified.
Know the second your client opens the proposal. Get an email the moment they sign. Stop guessing when to follow up, and stop following up when you do not need to.
Market rate intelligence
Before you send, see how your fee compares to what the market pays for the same scope in your city. Walk into every conversation knowing your number is right.
Payment schedule, built in
Define your payment milestones: 50/50, 30/40/30, or fully custom. trussnote calculates every dollar amount automatically and presents it as a clean schedule inside the proposal.
