What Counts as a Proposal?
A proposal is counted when you click "Generate" on a new RFP:
Does count:
- Each new proposal generation
- Regenerating an entire proposal from scratch
Does not count:
- Regenerating individual sections
- Editing existing content
- Exporting proposals
- Viewing or sharing
Tracking Your Usage
View your current usage:
- Go to Dashboard
- Check the Usage widget in the sidebar

Or go to Settings → Subscription for detailed usage history.
