Constraints

Requires a dots account (OpenAI's agent product) and access to Slack. Copy or forward the RFP content to Dot and ask for a fit assessment in natural language. No complex workflow setup needed.

What they did

hailsxr's cofounder dropped an RFP in Slack. The author immediately opened dots and had their Dot figure out whether the team was a good fit to respond.

How it went

According to the author's report, the whole process took about 10 seconds, and Dot provided a fit assessment. (author_report)

Worth knowing

The source does not indicate whether Dot was pre-configured with company background, nor describe the output format (simple yes/no or with reasoning). RFP length and complexity will affect actual time needed. dots is an OpenAI agent product requiring a separate account; there is no native Slack integration, so RFP content must be copied manually. For high-value RFPs, human review is still recommended—do not rely solely on the agent's assessment to decide whether to commit formal bid resources.

Steps

  1. Receive the RFP

    Get an RFP forwarded by a cofounder or colleague in Slack. Copy the full RFP or its key requirements to your clipboard, or keep the Slack message accessible.

  2. Ask Dot to assess fit

    Open dots, paste or describe the RFP content to Dot, and ask whether your team is a good fit to bid. Include your company's current capabilities, resource constraints, and the RFP's core requirements so Dot can evaluate quickly.

Prompt you can copy

This block is the prompt. Ads are never placed here.

No prompt needed — just follow the steps.

When chatting with Dot, consider providing: 1) your company's core capabilities and recent project experience; 2) hard requirements from the RFP (budget, timeline, certifications); 3) current team resource availability. The more specific the context, the more accurate the assessment.
