AI RFP drafting from connected company knowledge

Est. 2023San Francisco, CASeed

What is Arphie?

Arphie is an AI-native knowledge-activation and response platform for RFPs, RFIs, DDQs, and security questionnaires. It drafts answers from approved live sources, shows citations and confidence levels, supports collaborative review, and exposes projects, metrics, and agentic chat through Arphie MCP.

How to evaluate this tool

Arphie is relevant when answer quality depends on keeping connected source material current. Compare the work of maintaining live sources with the effort of curating a reusable Q&A library.

Check during a demo: Change a source document during a pilot and check citations, permissions, answer refresh, and reviewer approval. Ask how overlapping projects affect the commercial scope.

Overview

Arphie is an AI-native knowledge-activation and response platform for RFPs, RFIs, DDQs, and security questionnaires. It connects to approved live sources instead of relying only on a static Q&A library, drafts responses with citations and confidence levels, and supports human review and sign-off. Founded in 2023 in San Francisco, Arphie's latest publicly confirmed funding remains the $2.9 million seed round announced in November 2024.

Key Features

  • AI response drafting: Produces first drafts from approved knowledge sources and shows the supporting sources and confidence level.
  • Smart Merge and freshness controls: Proposes duplicate-answer merges, prefers newer material, and helps improve grammar and readability.
  • Import and export in place: Detects questions and sections in Word and Excel and exports completed work back into the original format.
  • Collaboration: Provides owner, writer, reviewer, and other roles, comments, mentions, approvals, sign-off, and deadline tracking.
  • Quick-Ask AI: Answers standalone questions in the platform or through Slack.
  • Arphie MCP: Brings agentic chat, project status, assignments, due dates, and metrics into supported AI tools, IDEs, and command-line workflows.
  • Analytics: Tracks progress, editing/acceptance behavior, project volume, workload, and estimated time saved.

Integrations

Current public integrations include Salesforce, Google Drive, SharePoint, Dropbox, Box, Notion, Confluence, Seismic, Highspot, Vanta, Slack, Front, websites, and Arphie MCP for tools such as Claude, ChatGPT, and Cursor. Enterprise SSO supports SAML 2.0 and Google authentication with Okta, OneLogin, Microsoft Azure, and ADFS. A general public API is not documented.

Security & Compliance

Arphie's security page confirms annual SOC 2 Type 2 audits, annual third-party penetration testing, TLS 1.2 in transit, AES-256 at rest, data segregation, role-based permissions, and Zero Data Retention agreements with model providers. Enterprise SSO is available. A current first-party comparison page says customer data is hosted in the United States on AWS. SCIM is not publicly documented.

Pricing

Arphie does not publish list prices. Current first-party material describes pricing by concurrent projects rather than seats, with unlimited users at every tier and all core capabilities included; SSO and premium support may cost extra. G2 currently marks a free trial as available, but Arphie does not publish the duration or trial terms.

Best For

Arphie fits mid-market and enterprise response teams that want source-transparent AI, unlimited collaborators, and live knowledge integrations across proposal, presales, investor-relations, and security workflows.

Considerations

List prices, project allowances, trial terms, a public API, and SCIM are not publicly documented. Current G2 reviews are strong but still limited in volume; reported gaps include export/formatting issues, bugs, maturing reporting, and no native mobile experience.
