About Prospero
Prospero is turning proposals from documents into instrumented, reusable assets.
Prospero builds and sends business proposals, with templates, a content library, e-signature and CRM connections around them. The releases over the past nine months form a steady, unhurried cadence of practical additions: catalogs and saved deliverables for reusing priced line items, content locking to protect approved sections, bulk actions across proposals, form builder fields, HubSpot and Make.com integrations, and now page-by-page analytics on how prospects read a proposal.
