In recruitment, the first readable proposal wins the seat at the table. Frameboard turns a briefing call into a client-ready retained search proposal in under 10 minutes - with candidate reels, fee schedule, and replacement terms baked in.
Recruitment is won on speed and trust. If you can put a credible, branded, on-message proposal in front of a hiring manager inside two hours, you've already moved ahead of 80% of the market. Here's what that looks like.
Aggregated from our first cohort of retained + contingent recruitment agencies (3-40 consultants).
From brief to signed + invoiced in one flow.
AI identifies the role, seniority, sector, location, salary band, and must-have skills. Draft proposal lands in under a minute.

They read on their phone, see your credibility, sign the engagement and pay the retainer.
Shortlist, candidate pipeline, weekly status, invoices - all in one place. Client checks progress without pinging you.
