Eva (AI assistant)

Eva is UpliftRFP's conversational assistant. While Bulk answer generation is the fastest way to produce first drafts at scale, Eva is where you go to refine, improve, and interrogate individual answers in a back-and-forth conversation.

Eva is available in two places: inside each question page, and at the project level from the tender response page.

Question-level Eva

• Open any question from your tender response and Eva will be visible below the question text.
• Use it to improve the current draft, adjust tone, add specific details, or ask for alternative approaches — all in the context of that specific question.
• On desktop, Eva sits to the right of the answer editor so you can refer to both at the same time. On mobile, it opens as a slide-up panel.

Project-level Eva

• Available from the tender response page — look for the Eva button near the top of the page.
• Use project-level Eva when you have a question that spans multiple sections, want to draft an executive summary, or need help with something that is not tied to a single question.
• It has access to the same tender documents and Content Vault as question-level Eva.

Uploading files to Eva

• You can attach a PDF or Word document directly to the Eva composer if you want Eva to use it as context for your conversation — for example a client brief, a reference document, or a competitor's tender.
• Wait for the upload to finish (you will see a confirmation) before sending your next message. Sending too soon means Eva may not have fully read the file yet.
• Files uploaded to Eva are for that conversation only and are not added to your Content Vault.
• If your organisation's security policy requires it, remove sensitive documents from the conversation once you are finished.

What Eva does well

• Refining and restructuring draft answers with knowledge of your Content Vault and Customisation settings.
• Drawing on Tender Intelligence findings that have already been generated for the tender.
• Searching the web for supporting information when web search is enabled for your organisation.

Getting the best from Eva

• Be specific in your requests. 'Rewrite paragraph two to focus on our ISO 9001:2015 accreditation' will get you a better result than 'make this punchier'.
• If you are asking Eva to improve a specific part of your answer, paste the relevant text into your message so Eva is working from the latest version.
• Refer to documents by name if you want Eva to draw on them — for example 'use the Meridian Hospital case study' rather than 'use one of our case studies'.
• If you have several things you want to improve, work through them one at a time rather than asking for everything at once.

Accepting Eva's suggested changes

• When Eva suggests a rewrite, the changes are highlighted in the editor so you can see exactly what has been proposed.
• Click Accept to keep the new version, or Reject to go back to your previous text.
• Every accepted change is saved as a version in the question's version history, so you can always undo it later if needed.

When conversations get long

• If Eva's responses start to slow down, it may be because the conversation history has grown very long. This is normal.
• Use New Conversation to start a fresh chat. This clears the conversation history but does not affect your saved answer — everything you have written is safe.
• If a response from Eva stops partway through, try refreshing the page. Your saved answer will still be there.
