Still hunting the approved version?
A private library per client. Search past ITT answers, method statements, and case studies — get a cited passage, and nothing leaves until you say so.
Policies, case studies, and last framework responses live across SharePoint, Drive, and last year's zips — and under a live deadline, finding the approved version can take longer than writing the response.
Under deadline, which policy or case study is the signed-off copy is often unclear. Searching folders and email interrupts drafting.
Keeping content sharp is valuable — and it drops to the bottom when deadlines loom. Winners and losers sit in the same loft until it costs a bid.
Accuracy is still the worry when AI helps on a live bid — unreviewed prose and facts nobody sourced. One invented case study is reputation damage.
Gather that client's past answers in one place. Search and cite them on the next similar ITT — and check every line before it reaches a portal.
Search uploaded answers and case studies in plain language, with a link back to the file each piece came from.
Mark blocks so mixed winners and losers stop looking current. It will not do the unpaid library pass.
Drafts pull only from that client's files, cite the source, and pause for your review before anything is treated as final.
A per-client library — search and cite past answers, draft from those files, and sign off before anything leaves.
Past answers, case studies, method statements, and policies — stored in separate workspaces per client so one bidder's files stay with that bidder.
Workspaces docs →Ask in plain language across that client's uploaded files and get a cited passage — so you open the signed-off copy instead of guessing SharePoint.
Search docs →How you draft and check — defined once, then followed each time you run the same steps on a familiar ITT.
AI agents docs →A repeatable sequence — find past work, draft a section, save for review — you can run again when the next similar tender lands.
Workflows docs →Every run can pause for your review before a draft is final — so AI-assisted text is checked by you, not sent automatically.
Approval docs →When shared cloud is not enough, run Personal on your own server, or a private Dedicated / Enterprise instance — sized for how your practice needs custody.
Self-hosted docs →Past winning responses, method statements, and case studies accumulate over years — often across more than one place — so a familiar ITT can still mean hunting the approved version by hand.
Winning responses, method statements, and evidence sit in client SharePoints, email zips, and last year's submissions — with no single place that ties a bid together.
When a new ITT looks familiar, the next step is locating that approved answer, the case study, and the social-value block — then adapting names and dates by hand.
Review dates and retiring losers are valuable — and they wait for a lull that rarely comes, so winners and losers stay in the same loft.
From a past winning answer to a reviewed draft — without starting from scratch.
Upload past answers and notes, run a reusable drafting flow for a new ITT, and review the output before it reaches a portal.
Workflows docs →Nothing leaves without your review. Check the draft, compare it to the original, and edit before it reaches a portal.
Workflows docs →Drafts pull from your uploaded answers and case studies. Sources are shown so you can verify wording before you rely on them.
Search docs →Common questions about finding approved bid answers, signing off before they leave, and keeping client files under your control.
A1KnowHow is a private per-client library for bid consultancies. Upload past answers, case studies, and method statements, search and cite them, draft the next section from those files, and sign off before anything leaves.
When a new ITT looks familiar, you search that client's library for the approved version of a past answer or case study, draft a section grounded in those files, and pause for your review before the text reaches a portal.
PDFs, Word documents, text files, and more. Past winning answers, method statements, case studies, policies, and framework responses are a good place to start.
Yes. It is aimed at UK bid practices of about 1–10 people — Founders, Managing Directors, and Bid Managers who still write or run bids — and freelancers who reuse past answers under deadline.
Yes. Upload the previous response to that client's workspace and search it — for example, which case study or method statement went into the last framework. Answers cite the source document so you can verify before you reuse it.
Keep Tender Library for Q&A and pipeline if you already pay for it. A1KnowHow sits alongside: a private writing library on the same corpus, with search, citations, and a named check before anything leaves. We are not a cheaper Tender Library and we do not replace opportunity alerts.
Chat can draft fast, but every run is a fresh guess — you re-prompt search, drafting, and checks. A1KnowHow keeps a per-client library and runs your proven workflow the same way each time: find past answers, draft from those files, then pause for your sign-off.
Drafts pull from your uploaded answers and case studies first, with citations so you can verify. Nothing is treated as final until you sign off. We do not claim zero hallucinations — grounding only works if that client's library is ingested and current.
Yes — 14 days on Cloud, no credit card. Fair-use limits apply so you can upload a client library, search with citations, and try a workflow. After the trial you can stay on shared Cloud (£29/month) for standard use, or move to Dedicated Cloud (£59/month) for a private instance.
Continue on Cloud at £29/month for standard use on shared SaaS, or switch to Dedicated Cloud at £59/month when you want a private server for your practice. Self-hosted Personal stays free if you run the software yourself.
We offer documentation and support resources. You can access our help center, documentation, or contact our support team if you need assistance getting started or have any questions.
Workflows retrieve from your workspaces and documents first. Sources are shown with answers and drafts so you can verify wording before you reuse anything in a live bid.
Your documents stay in your account and workspaces on A1KnowHow Cloud (shared SaaS for standard use). If clients or SC / clearance work need stricter custody — dedicated infrastructure, no shared environment with other firms, or contractual control over where data is processed — choose Dedicated Cloud (£59/month private instance) or run Self-hosted Personal on your own servers. We do not replace your clearance process. See the privacy policy and self-hosted docs for details.
Workflows are repeatable drafting flows you run when you need them. Step templates help you set one up faster — pick a starting point (for example, find past work, draft a section, save for review, or pause for your sign-off), fill in a short form, and refine from there.
MCP is a shared way for AI agents to connect to other systems — so they can reach tools you already use (CRM, ticketing, and the like) instead of living only in a chat window. In A1KnowHow, those connections sit inside your workflow the same way document and search steps do — useful when a run needs to pull data or take an action elsewhere.
Yes. You can point A1KnowHow at models you control — for example ones running on your own server, or a managed cloud provider your plan supports. That helps when clients need AI under your custody rules. The docs cover the options for each edition.
Yes. Self-hosted Personal is free for personal use on servers you control. For a private instance we run, choose Dedicated Cloud. Need on-premises scale or a written SLA? Contact us. Cloud and self-hosted work the same way: find, draft, and sign off.
No. A1KnowHow is not open source today. We may release a community edition in the future.
Start on shared Cloud for standard use, or run a private Dedicated instance when custody matters. Self-host stays free below.
