The bottom line

Canva designs; Flodoc understands the RFP. For real SOQ and SF330 work, Flodoc is the purpose-built choice.

Canva is a fast, familiar design tool for general graphics and simple documents. For AEC proposals it hits a hard ceiling: it has no understanding of your RFP, your requirements, or your firm's people and projects, so every match and compliance check is manual. Flodoc is a proposal editor with that intelligence built in, reading the solicitation and assembling qualifications from your firm's knowledge. For real SOQ and SF330 work, Flodoc is the purpose-built choice.

Why AEC firms choose Flodoc over Canva

AEC teams that want the proposal to assemble itself from firm knowledge, with the right people and projects mapped to each requirement, inside an editor built for qualifications documents.

Reads the RFP and extracts every requirement; Canva has no proposal logic at all

Matches your staff and past projects to each requirement automatically

Tracks compliance across every requirement so nothing is missed under deadline

Purpose-built for SOQs, SF330-style documents, and proposals, and you can import your existing PDFs and templates

Where Canva fits

Canva is genuinely excellent for general design: a huge template library and an easy learning curve for marketing graphics and simple one-pagers. That is a different job. On a real pursuit it has no idea what your RFP requires or which of your projects proves you can win it, so every hour is manual assembly and manual proofreading against the requirements. Flodoc does that assembly for you and keeps it tied to the solicitation.
