It is made by PowerPropose, headquartered in the United Kingdom. The permanent Free plan costs £0 and includes one seat, 10 active clients, and 10 proposals; it also includes a 30-day Standard trial. Standard costs £25 per month and includes three seats, 100 active clients, unlimited proposals, and unlimited e-signatures. Its first month is free, but a card is required. Professional costs £55 per month and includes five seats and 250 active clients. The listed prices exclude VAT. Enterprise pricing is custom per seat, with unlimited seats, clients, and storage. The plans spell out several capacity limits, while the product features cover proposal workflows, signatures, payments, and client activity. PowerPropose runs on the web, and a free trial is included with the Free plan.

The Decent Proposal is proposal software for freelancers, studios, and agencies preparing scope, pricing, and terms. Its Proposal Wizard asks five questions and creates a tailored draft, while AI proposal drafting and pricing tables support the same workflow. The Smart Library stores reusable scope blocks and fee tables. Free users work in the web interface and save proposals locally without cloud synchronization. Export options include PDF, Word document, and JSON. Pro adds cloud persistence, share links, viewer-activity tracking, analytics, and agent runtime access. The optional CLI can create or update proposals, retrieve and validate them, and publish them with scoped agent keys. The agent guide requires Node.js 18 or later, a verified-email account, and an agent API key. The Secure Vault is described as using client-side AES-GCM encryption, with the maker saying it cannot read users’ data. Listed workflows cover agencies, photography, consulting, freelance development, freelance creative work, and production houses.
