1up

1up is an AI knowledge automation platform for sales teams, built to answer the steady stream of detailed product, pricing, security, and compliance questions that slow deals down. Its core job is turning a company's scattered internal knowledge into fast, accurate, source grounded answers, whether a rep needs a quick reply in chat or a team needs to complete a long request for proposal. The company, based in New York and founded by George Avetisov, frames the problem as one of knowledge that cannot simply be Googled or asked of a general AI because it depends on sensitive, company specific information.

1up builds a knowledge base from the sources a team already trusts, including its website, product documentation, previously completed questionnaires, Google Drive, SharePoint, Confluence, and Notion, and keeps it current automatically. On top of that base it applies large language models with guardrails to limit hallucinations, and every answer cites its sources so reviewers can trace where information came from. For questionnaires, it classifies and routes questions, generates hundreds of answers in minutes, supports more than twenty languages, and can fill Word, Excel, and web forms, the last through a browser extension.

Beyond bulk questionnaire work, 1up surfaces answers where reps already work. Ask 1up lives in Slack, Microsoft Teams, and Google Chat, appearing as another user that responds to questions instantly, and a Trust Hub gives customers a self serve portal for security, compliance, and IT answers and document downloads. Analytics surface trending questions, answer quality, and content gaps so teams can see what the field is asking. On security, 1up is SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 compliant, was built by cybersecurity engineers, encrypts data at rest and in transit, isolates each workspace, and never uses customer documents to train models.

1up is unusual in the RFP category for publishing transparent pricing rather than gating everything behind a sales call. It offers a free plan with limited usage and a 14 day free trial, with paid plans starting around $250 a month at a flat rate, scaling by team size, and custom pricing for larger enterprises. That accessibility, alongside a focus narrowly on answering tough sales questions rather than heavy project management, is how it differentiates from incumbent RFP suites. The company has raised more than $8M and counts WalkMe, Gladly, and Deliveroo among its customers.
