Two workflow families. One platform.

Built for teams that need accurate responses fast.

Both start with messy inputs and end in client-facing work. Respond structures what arrives, generates the output and keeps review visible before anything leaves the business.

One platform for response workflows.

Built for teams that need accurate, client-ready responses fast.

From RFPs and security questionnaires to due diligence packs and ESG assessments. Respond structures the work, generates answers from your source material and routes every exception to the right reviewer.

One platform for recruitment workflows.

Built for teams that need to place candidates faster.

From CV formatting and talent pool search to candidate analysis and submission packs. Respond turns your existing candidate records into a structured, searchable asset behind every client deliverable.

What Respond does

From incoming request to reviewed client output.

Respond is not a static library or a chat sidebar. It takes the request in, structures the work, generates submission-ready output from approved content, routes exceptions for review, and exports the final deliverable.

1. Capture

Upload the RFP, questionnaire, CV or job brief. Respond reads the structure, extracts the work items, and keeps the original context attached.

2. Assign

Owners, reviewers and SMEs get clear work queues. Progress is visible without chasing updates through email or Slack.

3. Generate

Respond produces complete, submission-ready output from your approved content — and flags the work that needs expert review, rather than hiding gaps behind confident wording.

4. Review & export

Teams approve, edit and export in the client format. Review is focused on exceptions and assurance, not routine rewriting.

Platform foundation

The shared foundation underneath every Respond workflow.

Structured content, configurable review, access controls and visible AI work are built into the platform. That is how Respond stays reliable across sales, security, legal and talent teams.

Explore the platform
Governed Knowledge

A single, versioned content corpus. Policy docs, prior responses, approved boilerplate — all tagged, reviewed, and owned.

Workflow & Review

Multi-stage documents with owners, reviewers, status gates, and structured handoffs. No orphan threads.

Security, Permissions & Audit

SSO, SCIM, region residency, row-level permissions. Every answer carries its provenance and decision history.

AI Operations & Observability

Inspect every AI job. Token cost, model, confidence, retrieval sources, reviewer edits — visible and queryable.

Beyond the browser

Works for your team and for AI agents.

People can use the web app or email. Technical teams can connect automations and agents through controlled access surfaces, with the same permissions and review rules.
