What a slow reply costs

One missed RFP is a six-figure deal that went to a faster competitor.

€40K–€200K

typical first-year revenue on a single brand RFP you win

Source: Industry range, mid-tier specialty food co-pack + contract manufacturing

48 hours

window before the brand shortlists competitors who replied faster

Source: Qualified inbound across private label, contract manufacturing, supplement CDMOs and packaging suppliers

3–17×

payback on Matchquote from a single additional deal won per quarter

Source: Based on €6K/yr Founding 5 subscription vs €40K–€200K deal value

Matchquote is €6,000 a year at the Founding 5 rate (€0 setup + €500/month). Your average brand or tender RFP is worth €40,000 to €200,000. One additional deal won per quarter — because you were the first-draft in the brand's inbox — pays for the tool many times over.

The problem

Your best deals go to the co-packer that answered first.

2–5 days

typical first-response time on inbound brand RFPs

30–50%

share of brands who've already heard back from a competitor by then

3–5 hours

commercial team time per RFP on manual capability re-explanation

Most mid-tier EU co-packers we talk to don't have an RFP volume problem. They have a response-time problem. The brand has already toured two competitors by the time a first-draft goes out. The deal is lost before the spec sheet is even shared.

What it knows

The regulatory and operational depth your buyers actually work inside.

Loaded into the system rather than asked of the model at runtime. The difference between a generic LLM giving every supplier the same shallow answer and a tool that recognises your world.

  • PPWR alignment. EU Regulation 2025/40, recyclable mono-material logic for pharma and nutra primary packs.
  • FMD vs nutra-not-FMD. Falsified Medicines Directive covers pharma serialization, not supplements. Different pitch shape.
  • ISO 15378 GMP. Primary packaging quality management for medicinal products. The cert pharma buyers ask about by name.
  • GS1 Digital Link 2027. Sunrise date moving brand owners off GTIN-only barcodes onto 2D codes.
  • EU 2023/2006. Good Manufacturing Practice for food-contact materials. What nutra brands expect their suppliers to hold.
  • Dose-load math. Why a 1g creatine gummy cannot carry a clinical dose. Push back on under-spec briefs without losing the relationship.
  • Six-field brief clarification. Dose, serving, weight, texture, positioning, testing grade. The discipline before quoting.
  • Joint-bid opportunity detection. Recognises when a brief opens room for a substrate plus serialization joint bid instead of a single-vendor response.

How it works

One tool, three things it does well.

Commercial teams move faster because the machine does the tedious reading, qualification, and formatting work first — in the language and matrix you've trained it on.

01

Inbound RFP lands in your shared inbox, web form, or marketplace channel.

02

AI extracts brand, format, volume, certifications, allergens, and timeline.

03

Capability matrix scores the fit and flags matches, gaps, and red flags.

04

A reviewable draft email is generated alongside a structured ERP record.

01

Parses every inbound RFP

Email inbox, PDF attachments, web form submissions, marketplace messages (PartnerSlate, Wonnda). Claude extracts brand, product, format, volume, certifications, allergens, and delivery timeline — in structured fields, in seconds.

02

Scores fit against your capability matrix

Your real "yes / no / depends" rules live in a structured matrix — formats, MOQs, certifications, allergen handling, lead times, exclusions. Every RFP scored consistently. No more "what did we tell that other brand last month?"

03

Drafts the response in your voice

Full first-draft email in your house style. Leads with what you CAN do. Flags what you can't. Suggests a specific next step. Your team reviews, tweaks a sentence, sends from their normal email.

FAQ

The questions every co-packer asks first.

Does this work outside food co-packing? Supplement CDMOs, packaging suppliers?+

Yes. The pattern is the same: inbound brief, capability matrix, top three clarifications, first-draft response. Food co-packing is where we started (specific allergen rules, cert matrix, SKU formats are a strong ICP). Supplement CDMOs use the same workflow with dose-load math, format-load trade-offs, and six-field brief clarification baked in. Packaging substrate and smart packaging suppliers get PPWR, FMD, ISO 15378, GS1 Digital Link, and joint-bid opportunity detection in the assessment. Show us one of your RFQs and we'll tell you honestly if it fits.

Will the draft sound like a robot wrote it?+

No. We build a style profile from 5–10 of your historical real responses. The AI matches your tone, length, and structure. Most clients are at "send-without-edit" within the first 30 RFPs.

What happens to my data?+

Your RFP data stays in your dedicated Supabase tenant in the EU region (Frankfurt). Anthropic doesn't train on Claude API data. We sign a DPA. You can export and delete anytime.

What about languages other than English?+

English, German, Italian, French, Dutch, Polish, Romanian, and Spanish out of the box. Others: 1–2 days to add.

Can it integrate with our ERP?+

Aptean F&B (Dynamics 365 BC base) and direct Dynamics 365 BC: native. NetSuite: native. SAP B1, Sage X3, Infor, BatchMaster: webhook export. No ERP yet? Output goes to email or Slack instead.

What if I want to cancel?+

Cancel per SOW terms. We export your capability matrix and processed RFP history to you on departure.

Are you a one-person shop?+

Yes — and that's a feature for a 14-day pilot. You get the founder on every call. Hands-on, honest, no account-manager game of telephone.

Why I built this

I watched three ops directors lose six-figure deals in the same week — because a competitor answered first.

Not because they had worse capabilities. Not because they priced poorly. Because their first-draft landed 48 hours later than the shop down the road. The brand had already toured two facilities. The spec sheet was never even read.

I'm Bogdan. I build narrow AI tools for specific revenue-critical workflows. No sprawling platforms, no account managers, no scoping calls that go nowhere. If you run a food co-packer, a supplement CDMO, a packaging substrate operation or a smart packaging vendor, the fastest next step is a 15-minute audit where we look at one of your real (or anonymised) RFQs together.

You get me on every call — from the first audit through the first 100 live RFPs. That's the whole deal.

Next step

If your team is still answering RFPs from scratch, the bottleneck is already expensive.

15 minutes on a call. We look at one of your real (or anonymised) RFPs, map it against your capability rules, and you see exactly what the first-draft would look like.
