Proposify's prices and features last checked on September 30, 2026 from Proposify pricing. Prices change, so check their site before deciding.
The short answer
If you're a solo freelancer who mostly needs a solid proposal written and sent quickly, Draftly costs less and does the writing for you. If you're a team that needs shared content, CRM sync, approvals and formal e-signatures, Proposify is built for that and Draftly isn't.

When Draftly is the better choice
- You work alone and don't need seats, roles or approvals.
- You'd rather describe the project and get a full first draft than assemble one from blocks.
- You send a steady stream of proposals and don't want to watch a per-send allowance.
- You want a free plan to try it on real clients, not a 14-day trial.
When Proposify is the better choice
- Several people write and send proposals, and you need a shared content library and a pricing catalog.
- Proposals need to sync with your CRM, or go through an approval step before sending.
- Your clients or contracts require a formal e-signature.
- You need SSO, API access or separate workspaces.
What Draftly doesn't do
- No formal e-signature. Draftly records an acceptance, which is not the same thing if your client or your contract requires a signature.
- No payment collection. You invoice separately.
- No CRM or other integrations.
- One account, no team seats, roles or approval workflows.
- The AI writes a first draft. You still need to check the scope and the numbers before sending.
