Presel
Presel is a web-based pre-sales kit and RFP response tool for bid teams. Its Bid Manager handles RFP intake, requirement extraction and mapping, evidence-backed drafting, quality gates, and controlled Word export. The toolkit converts Markdown into editable Word and PDF documents, and can import Word documents back into Markdown. Users can create and preview Mermaid and PlantUML diagrams for documents. AI features can use a user's Cursor, OpenAI, or Anthropic provider, or work offline. The free toolkit includes a 50 MB personal drive and one knowledge base, but no RFP projects or organization seats. The Trial provides Pro for seven days without a credit card; after it ends, the account returns to Free toolkit limits if not upgraded. Plus costs $19 a month, billed at $19 per seat per month, and Pro costs $49 a month, billed at $49 per seat per month. Presel names bid managers, commercial teams, and solution architects as users of Bid Manager workspaces. Enterprise SAML/OIDC single sign-on is not available in self-serve plans today.
