AI RFP Automation and Security Questionnaire Software - Arphie

What is Arphie?

Arphie is an AI platform that automatically drafts RFP and security questionnaire responses using your live company documents. It saves sales and technical teams hours of chasing experts, delivering transparent, source-backed answers you can approve in minutes.

Features

Overview

Arphie is an AI-powered knowledge activation platform built to automate RFPs and security questionnaires for go-to-market teams. It uses AI agents to convert unstructured company knowledge into structured, cited answers. The platform targets sales, proposal, and security teams that repeatedly answer similar questions from prospects and customers.

The core workflow starts by connecting Arphie to a company’s existing knowledge sources. When a user imports a Word or Excel questionnaire, Arphie’s agentic engine breaks each question into sub-questions, retrieves facts from connected repositories, and drafts an answer. Every generated answer includes a confidence score and links to the source documents used.

Arphie syncs live with tools including Google Drive, SharePoint, Confluence, Notion, Seismic, and Vanta, so answers reflect the most recently updated internal content. Its Smart Merge feature identifies duplicate entries in the Q&A library and proposes consolidating them, prioritizing the newest version of any given answer.

A distinguishing feature is the Arphie Model Context Protocol (MCP), which lets developers and other technical users query company knowledge from within Claude, Cursor, or a terminal, without switching to a web browser. Arphie also emphasizes Zero Data Retention agreements, meaning customer data is not used to train underlying AI models.

Pricing

Arphie does not publish pricing on its website. There is no free plan or self-serve free trial listed, so prospective users must contact sales for a quote. Enterprise and usage-based pricing figures are also not disclosed publicly, meaning exact costs are unknown until a company requests a demo.

* Disclaimer: Please note that pricing information may not be up to date. For the most accurate and current pricing details, refer to the official website.

Key Features

Use Cases

01

RFP Response Automation

Sales and proposal teams import lengthy RFPs directly into Arphie. The AI parses the document and drafts complete first-pass answers from approved company content, which the company says can cut drafting time by up to 80 percent.

02

Security Questionnaire Completion

IT and security teams face repeated compliance questionnaires from prospects. Arphie connects to Vanta to pull live security controls and evidence, so answers reflect current audit status instead of outdated copy-paste responses.

03

Content Library Maintenance

Knowledge managers often struggle with duplicate or stale Q&A entries. Smart Merge scans the library, proposes merges, and favors the most recently updated source, reducing manual cleanup work.

04

Integrated Developer Querying

Engineers sometimes need internal documentation without leaving their coding tools. Through Arphie MCP, they can query the knowledge base directly from Cursor or a terminal instead of switching to a browser.

05

Cross-Functional Proposal Collaboration

Complex proposals need input from legal, sales, and product teams. Arphie offers role-based access, in-line commenting, tagging, and question-level deadline tracking with Slack and email reminders.
