About Vyavos

Your firm already has the knowledge. It lacks the system to execute on it.

Vyavos is an Australian-built Proposal Operating System, founded by a data protection lawyer who ran complex proposal processes inside KPMG.

Why we exist

Built by someone who lived the pain

Vyavos was founded by a data protection lawyer who ran complex proposal processes inside KPMG, across partners, pricing, legal and risk.

The work decided millions in revenue. It ran across departments where information kept getting lost, and the final edits were made with the partner at midnight.

Her diagnosis: the problem was not capability. It was execution, across dozens of systems that were never designed to work together.

“The problem wasn’t capability. The problem was execution.”

Most software helps you do tasks. Vyavos helps you execute outcomes.

What we understand that others miss

Proposal work is not a writing problem. It is an execution problem.

  1. It is an operations problem.

    Inside a Big 4 proposal team, the hard part was never the writing. It was moving the right knowledge and the right people through one process, under a deadline.

  2. The value already exists inside your firm.

    Past submissions, credentials, CVs and the language that has won work are already yours. They are scattered across drives, inboxes and the memories of three busy people.

  3. The product is the system around the AI.

    General-purpose AI can write something that reads like a proposal. What makes it yours is the system around it: your knowledge underneath, your people in control, one workflow in between.

Vyavos is enterprise proposal infrastructure: the operating layer for how firms compete for and win work.

Why we are equipped to solve it

Built from inside the process. Tested on live tenders.

  1. From inside the process

    A founder who ran high-stakes proposals inside KPMG, as a lawyer and as the centre point between departments.

  2. Shaped by the people who run bids

    Validation interviews with proposal leaders at law, consulting and engineering firms shaped the system before it was built.

  3. Tested end to end

    In an early structured test run in January 2026, organisations ran live opportunities through Vyavos, from the RFP to the response.

  4. Built in Melbourne

    Rebuilt with an engineering partner, from the Stone & Chalk startup hub, with the support of a Press Play scholarship, Google for Startups cloud credits and RMIT’s Work Integrated Learning program.

How we build

Automate what should be automated. Preserve what requires human judgment.

  1. Human in the driver’s seatVyavos produces work product that a person reviews, steers, edits and signs. It scores no bids, makes no submission decisions and sends nothing on its own.
  2. Grounded, not generative by defaultContent is generated from the tender document and the approved material provided into the system, not from open-web sources.
  3. Verifiability over fluencyOutput is designed to be checked against the source document, and to state explicitly what it could not determine rather than filling the gap.
