Proposify 3 launches after 2.5 years of development—the platform's first complete architectural reset.
Proposify shipped its v3 platform in May 2025, a ground-up rebuild that reframes the product as a proposal experience layer rather than a document editor. The Q1 2026 update indicates steady post-launch iteration, with the team shipping new integrations and incremental improvements now that the architectural work is done.
Less Annoying CRM lets users pin notes to the top of a contact
LACRM ships slowly and from user requests. Two weeks after October's bundle of six features (scratchpad widget, custom contact labels, event and task search, history filters), it added pinned notes that stay at the top of a contact or company record. Earlier in the year came configurable task views, rich text fields, undo merge and relative date filters.

The 2.5-year development cycle means v3 is a fundamental platform rewrite. With the foundation in place, Proposify is expanding through vertical-specific integrations (Aspire for field services), broadening the seat model (Collaborator seats for non-sales stakeholders), and building the automation layer that underpins future AI capabilities. The 2024 public API positions Proposify to be embedded in custom sales stacks.
The next phase is AI-assisted proposal drafting—the 2024 automation engine is a natural foundation for AI-generated content components. Competitors PandaDoc and GetAccept shipped AI features during the 2.5-year v3 development window; Proposify needs to close that gap in 2026.

The work stays on the daily record view: making the current state of a client easier to see as history grows. No AI, pricing or integration moves appear in the entries.
More small record-view and search features, either one at a time or as another bundle, are the likely next step.
