Why Teams Switched from Loopio
Real stories from proposal managers who made the switch
"We spent 3 months setting up Loopio and building our content library. With Bidara, I uploaded our top 10 proposals and was generating new responses that afternoon. The AI actually understands our technical methodology."
"Loopio's Magic feature kept suggesting generic answers that didn't match our consulting framework. Bidara learned our specific approach to deliverables and timelines from day one. No more rewriting everything."
"We couldn't justify $54K/year for a team doing 15 RFPs. Bidara gives us the same AI capabilities at $499/month. The export formatting actually works too—no more spending hours fixing Word documents."

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions when switching from Loopio
The fundamental difference is in the approach to AI:
- Loopio: You manually build a content library over weeks/months, then the AI helps you search and suggest from that library.
- Bidara: You upload your past proposals, and our AI learns your methodology, voice, and formatting to generate complete first drafts immediately.
This means Bidara gets you to value in hours instead of months, at a fraction of the cost ($499/month vs $54K+/year).
Loopio typically costs $54,000-$140,000+/year depending on team size, plus $15,000+ for implementation. Bidara starts at $499/month ($5,988/year) with zero implementation costs.
For a typical mid-sized team, that's $50,000+ in savings the first year with equivalent or better AI capabilities.
