For US consulting and engineering firms
First proposal drafts, off your team's desks.
We draft from your past proposals, resumes and project sheets, and flag every gap. We never submit anything.

Seven checks before you accept the build
- Accuracy
- Tested on 30 past proposals. Zero serious errors on the test set.
- Ownership
- A named person on your side owns each exception.
- Failure
- Breaks show, and a manual fallback keeps work moving.
- Cost
- Cost per accepted output, your review time included.
- Access
- Scoped credentials you can revoke without us.
- Change
- Every change versioned, tested and reversible.
- Adoption
- Your team knows how to use it, and when to stop it.
We're new, so this standard stands in for client logos.
Part of the pilot fee is due only after the build passes. Still failing after one round of fixes? That part is waived.

Questions
What does Night Porter do?
Night Porter takes one repeatable job off a US staffing or consulting firm's team and runs it across the tools the firm already uses. Every draft carries its sources, and a person approves anything that leaves.
What happens when it gets something wrong?
It stops and asks. A named person on your team gets the draft with both sources attached, and their correction becomes a new test case.
We already use proposal software. How is this different?
It stores your content. We do the assembly on top: reading the RFP, matching, drafting and flagging gaps. If your tools already cover that, the assessment will tell you.
Could it invent project experience?
No. Every claim links to the file it came from. If your records don't support a requirement, the draft flags the gap instead of filling it.
