Proposal by Elivate
Apply first. Sound like the best.
You're excellent at the job. Your proposals are a crime scene.
Paste the job post. Get something the client actually finishes reading.
It reads the brief, picks the portfolio pieces that genuinely fit, and writes you a cover letter plus a proposal document that looks like a firm made it. Ninety seconds. Zero instances of the phrase "I am a highly motivated professional."
Ten free credits. No card. We're not going to email you a newsletter about productivity.
The problem
The job posted nine minutes ago. You're still rewriting the first sentence.
You know this job. You could scope it on a phone call. But writing about yourself is the hardest writing there is, so you've now spent twenty minutes on a paragraph, deleted it twice, and the shortlist is filling up while you do it.
By the time you send, the client has forty applications open. They read six. They shortlist three. And the three are almost never the three most capable people. They're the three who got there early and made the client feel understood in the opening line.
Which means the job goes to someone worse than you who was faster than you. Not better. Faster.
What lands in the client's inbox
- "Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to apply..."
- A list of every skill you've touched since 2019
- A portfolio link with the context of a ransom note
- The same letter as the last forty jobs, name swapped, usually
What lands in yours
- Their actual problem, in their actual words, in line one
- A five-step plan with things that get delivered
- Only the two pieces that match this job
- A designed document. Attached. Like a grown-up.
The inputs
Three things. None of them a form with nineteen fields.
Your portfolio
Screenshots and a plain-English note on what each one shows. You do this once. Then never again, forever.
Anything you happen to know
Optional. Something you noticed about the client, an angle you want to push, a number you've got in your head.
It only uses what you actually handed over. If your portfolio doesn't back a claim, the claim doesn't show up. No exceptions, because there is no worse feeling than a client asking a follow-up question about a project you invented.
The bit under the hood
It reads the job like a consultant. Then writes like one who bills a lot.
-
01
It works out what they're actually asking
Not keywords. The real problem underneath, including the part the client couldn't articulate and is quietly hoping you'll notice.
-
02
It throws out most of your portfolio
For this job, anyway. A weak match gets cut instead of stretched into a claim. Yes, even the one you're proud of. Especially that one.
-
03
It writes the letter
Their situation, your plan, your proof. In that order. Short enough to read on a phone in the back of an Uber, which is where it will be read.
-
04
It builds the document
Properly typeset, sectioned, with a hand-drawn system diagram when the work deserves one. Forty people send a paragraph. You send a document. Guess who gets the call.
-
05
You edit it and send it
Copy the letter, download the proposal, share a link. It all saves, so tomorrow's proposal starts from further along.
Blame
Built by someone who lost enough jobs to get annoyed about it.
I'm Boko Isaac, a Zoho One Certified Expert who freelances across Upwork, Fiverr, and referrals. I built this after losing a contract to a guy whose portfolio was worse than mine and whose cover letter was better than mine. I thought about that for a week. Then I opened a code editor instead of going to therapy.
Every rule in here comes from a proposal that flopped. It refuses to invent results because I once let a stretched claim slide and spent the entire first client call climbing back down from it.

Straight answers
The part where we talk you out of it.
Will the client be able to tell it was written by AI?
They'll be able to tell someone read the post, which already puts you ahead of thirty of the forty. The letter is built from your portfolio, your descriptions, and this specific brief, so it carries details a generic tool couldn't produce. Then you edit it before it goes anywhere. Send it unread and it will sound unread, which is also true of anything you rush yourself.
It won't invent results
If your portfolio doesn't show it, the proposal doesn't claim it. That's a hard rule, not a toggle you can find in settings if you look hard enough.
It won't win a job you can't do
It presents real work well. It cannot make you a Kubernetes expert between now and Thursday. We've tried. On ourselves. It doesn't work.
It's not a template filler
Two different jobs get two different structures. If the job is small, you get a short proposal, because a twelve-page document for a four-hour task is its own kind of red flag.
It won't send anything for you
You read it, you edit it, you hit send. Nothing goes out with your name on it that you haven't looked at. That's on purpose and it's not changing.
Someone is writing to that job right now. They're probably worse than you.
Ten free credits. One complete proposal, everything switched on, no card. If it's not better than what you were about to send, you've lost ninety seconds and you can go back to "Dear Sir/Madam" with a clear conscience.
