Problem
Freelancers and small studios spend too long writing a tailored proposal for every job post
Caveats
Needs paid API services: OpenAI, SerpAPI and pdf.co (costs UNKNOWN), plus Tally and Gmail. You must replace the Tally field IDs and write your real bio into the prompt. The PDF goes to the email entered on the form; read every proposal before sending it to a client, since AI-written claims about your experience must be accurate. Don't paste a client's confidential brief into it without their OK.
