When evaluating Loopio vs. Arphie, teams consistently choose Arphie for one critical reason: trust. While Loopio stores static answers in a siloed database, Arphie connects directly to your live sources of truth—delivering AI-generated responses that are accurate, verifiable, and always up-to-date.
For B2B SaaS companies that can't afford outdated or untrustworthy answers, Arphie is the smarter Loopio alternative.
Not all RFP tools handle content the same way. Loopio relies on a static knowledge base that requires near-constant manual curation—often demanding a dedicated resource just to keep answers current. Even then, teams frequently abandon the library mid-RFP because they don't trust what's there.
Arphie takes a fundamentally different approach. With live integrations to Google Drive, your website, internal documentation, and other approved sources, Arphie pulls from the latest company information automatically. Every AI-generated answer includes citations, so your team can verify the source in seconds. The result: responses you can trust, without the maintenance burden.
"We had Loopio for probably 4 or 5 years, and it's a siloed database that requires someone, mostly full-time, to pay attention to content updates. It wasn't uncommon for our team to report that a standard RFP would take them upwards of 30 or 40 hours. With Arphie, we brought that down to 16 hours—and that's a conservative estimate."
— Ashley Blackwell-Guerra, Director of Field AI, Contentful
Loopio users often face a frustrating reality: even with a curated library, completing a 200-question RFP can consume 30–40 hours across multiple team members. That's because static databases don't adapt to your evolving product, and reviewers spend more time fact-checking and rewriting than actually responding.
Arphie changes the math entirely. By generating high-quality first drafts from your company's approved sources, Arphie reduces RFP completion time by 60% or more. Teams shift from days of manual drafting to hours of focused review and customization—freeing expensive presales resources to focus on closing deals, not chasing down information.
Contentful experienced this transformation firsthand. During their proof of concept, a sales engineer and account executive uploaded a live enterprise RFP, completed it within 3–4 hours, and submitted it the next business day—a process that previously took 40+ hours.
With many RFP software providers, support feels transactional and slow. Loopio's support model often leaves teams waiting for answers or navigating feature gaps on their own.
Arphie operates differently. Our responsive, US-based support team is available via dedicated Slack channels, answering questions in minutes—not hours or days. Beyond troubleshooting, we actively listen to customer feedback and incorporate feature requests into our product roadmap at speed.
“Arphie stood out as people we trusted, who listened to us, and turned feedback into product quickly. You’ve proven that both pre-sale and post-sale.”
— Greg Kieran, Director, Solutions Engineering, commercetools
commercetool's team called out Arphie's white-glove support as a key differentiator—both during implementation and as an ongoing partner. Arphie doesn't just solve problems: we help you succeed.
One of the biggest frustrations with Loopio is its seat-based pricing model. Need to involve a subject matter expert from Legal? A security architect? That's another license—creating artificial barriers to collaboration and driving up costs unnecessarily.
Arphie's project-based pricing eliminates this friction entirely. Every team member at your company has unlimited access to the platform, so you can loop in any SME needed without worrying about license limits or surprise costs. Whether it's your AE, sales engineer, CSM, or a one-time contributor, everyone can participate—leading to better answers and faster completion.
"Kudos to the pricing model being per project and not per seat. Loopio is completely seat-based, which didn't really fit the flow of how these projects come about. The concurrent project model makes a whole lot more sense, and it means we don't have to limit who has access to a very specific and beneficial knowledge base."
— Ashley Blackwell-Guerra, Director of Field AI, Contentful
The result: predictable, transparent pricing that supports collaboration instead of limiting it.
Understanding a company's origins reveals its priorities. Loopio was built in an era before modern AI—designed primarily as a content management system for storing and retrieving static answers. While it served a purpose for basic RFP response libraries, its architecture wasn't designed for AI-powered automation, live integrations, or dynamic content management.
By contrast, Arphie was founded by a team with deep expertise in AI engineering and product development from institutions like Palantir, Microsoft, and Scale AI. This technical foundation enables Arphie to deliver patent-pending AI capabilities, transparent logic, and enterprise-grade performance that legacy tools simply can't replicate.
“We’d used legacy RFP software for years—but keeping the library accurate took constant effort, and people didn’t trust it. With Arphie, we can generate answers we trust and verify, straight from our own sources.”
— Jake Hofwegen, VP Global Revenue Operations and Enablement
