What Responsive is

Responsive is a response management platform for sales and proposal teams handling RFPs, RFIs, due diligence questionnaires, security questionnaires, and buyer questions. It draws on organizational content and subject-matter expertise to help teams prepare answers. Responsive AI can generate tailored responses from trusted content and prior successful responses. Its TRACE Score evaluates AI-generated answers for trustworthiness, relevance, accuracy, completeness, and explainability on a 0–100 scale.

The platform supports web, API, and extension access, with built-in e-signatures, client activity tracking, CRM integrations, custom branding, and analytics and reporting. Responsive lists 32 integrations, including Salesforce, Microsoft Dynamics, Zoho, HubSpot, Pipedrive, Box, Google Drive, OneDrive, SharePoint, Dropbox, Google Chat, Microsoft Teams, and Slack. Its Microsoft Word integration lets users find and insert AI-recommended content in documents and edit library files through Office Online.

The Emerging Edition starts at $10,000 per year and includes unlimited response projects, content, and collaboration, along with integrations, access controls, administration, reporting, and support. Growth and Enterprise are available through sales quotes and add features such as intake requests, advanced integrations, custom AI, and enterprise controls. Responsive is based in Beaverton, Oregon, and was founded in 2015.

Who it suits

Responsive suits sales and proposal teams that regularly prepare RFP, RFI, due diligence, or security questionnaire responses and want to draw on shared organizational content. It may also fit teams that use CRM, cloud storage, collaboration, or productivity tools covered by its integrations.

Limits

The Emerging Edition starts at $10,000 per year. If the API Connector is purchased with Emerging Edition, calls above 5,000 per 24-hour period may be delayed.

Getting started

1. Visit the Responsive website.
2. Choose the Emerging Edition or contact sales about Growth or Enterprise.
3. Use web, API, or extension access.
4. Connect relevant CRM, storage, collaboration, or productivity tools.
5. Use organizational content to prepare responses; the Word integration supports working with recommended content in documents.

Verdict

Choose Responsive if your team handles recurring proposal or questionnaire work and needs responses grounded in organizational content. Its AI response generation, TRACE Score, and integrations are central reasons to consider it. The $10,000-per-year starting price and lack of a free plan may lead smaller teams to look elsewhere.
