Free proposal grader

Free Proposal Grader

Paste a freelance proposal and see how it grades before the client reads it. ProposalDesk checks scope, pricing, trust language, and next-step clarity in under a minute.

Free to try. No signup required. Public critique runs do not store raw proposal text.

Pre-send critique

Critique axes

5

Opening, scope, pricing, closing, and polish.

Possible leak

Vague scope can invite unpaid follow-up work.

What ProposalDesk checks

A launch-ready critique loop, not another blank document.

Letter grade before the client sees it

ProposalDesk scores opening, scope, pricing, closing, and polish so you know where trust is leaking.

Estimated money left on the table

The critique translates vague scope, soft pricing, and missing terms into a practical leak estimate.

Fix Pack and buyer pushback

After the critique, generate a cleaner draft and rehearse the objections a buyer is likely to raise.

A grader built for freelancers, not generic document scores

Most proposal advice stops at grammar or formatting. ProposalDesk grades the business risk inside the draft: what the client may question, where scope can expand, and where the proposal undersells your work.

  • Grade the proposal before sending it.
  • See the estimated leak in plain money terms.
  • Turn the critique into a fixed draft when you want help rewriting.

Common proposal leaks

Vague scope

Flags promises that sound helpful but create room for unpaid revisions, migration work, or extra meetings.

Soft pricing

Catches quote language that weakens the number, hides payment terms, or skips deposit expectations.

Weak close

Finds proposals that end politely but never ask for a concrete approval, signature, or kickoff step.

How it works

  1. 01

    Paste the draft

    Use a proposal you are about to send, an old proposal, or a rough draft from another tool.

  2. 02

    Read the grade

    Review the overall grade, axis grades, top findings, benchmark context, and inline highlights.

  3. 03

    Fix the weak spots

    Generate a Fix Pack or rehearse buyer objections when the grade shows scope, pricing, or trust risk.

Is the proposal grader free?

Yes. The public critique tool is free to try and does not require signup.

Does ProposalDesk store my proposal text?

No. The public critique flow stores structural stats like grade and leak estimate, not the raw proposal text.

Can I use this with proposals from other tools?

Yes. Paste any draft from your editor, document tool, or proposal platform and use ProposalDesk as the pre-send review layer.
