Page insights

Know when the client is engaged

Get an email when a client first opens the proposal and see how long they spent on each section. Turn on email verification and each reader confirms their email before the page opens, so you know who to follow up with.

Acceptance

Accepted and on the client file

Clients accept in the same page, with optional deposit collection through Stripe.

Once accepted, the proposal locks. The audit trail records the name, email and company of the person who accepted, along with any answers to your acceptance form.

What Qwilr replaces, and what it sits beside

Qwilr handles the proposal workflow and sits beside the systems you already use to run the practice.

Questions accounting firms ask

Proposal software for accounting firms produces the document a firm sends to win work: scope, deliverables, fees and terms, with acceptance inside the same page. Accounting practices, advisory firms, bookkeepers and audit teams use it for everything from a compliance engagement letter to an audit proposal or a competitive advisory pitch. You can see when the client opened it and how long they spent on each section, and once accepted the page can't be edited.

An accounting proposal should cover the client's situation, the services in scope, deliverables and deadlines, the team, the fee structure and the terms of engagement. Advisory proposals also need to show the outcome the client is paying for. The accounting services proposal template gives you a starting structure.

Not the wording you have locked. Only admins can edit templates, and they decide per template whether a partner can view it or also edit it. A locked block can be added to any proposal, but only an admin can change what it says, so scope, deliverables and fees stay open while the liability wording stays fixed. See how team permissions work.

Qwilr connects natively to HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, Zoho CRM and Microsoft Dynamics 365, and the full list is on the integrations page. A practice management system needs a custom connection. Name your practice system on the first call and we will talk through what that involves.

Qwilr is built for the proposal you send to win work against other firms, such as an advisory mandate or a transaction services pursuit, where how the document reads and how the fees are presented shape the outcome. It can sit alongside Ignition or another tool you already use for recurring compliance letters. The roundup of proposal software for accountants compares the main options.
