RequestLoops vs FileRequestPro
Quick answer
FileRequestPro is a branded upload-link tool. RequestLoops covers the same upload-link use case but adds SMS reminders, AI form building, recurring runs and AI document validation, starting at $11/month versus $49/month.
FileRequestPro is a focused tool for sending branded upload links to clients and routing the files into Dropbox, Google Drive, OneDrive or SharePoint.
RequestLoops solves the same problem and adds the rest of the document-collection workflow: structured request forms, SMS reminders, recurring runs, AI validation and a status dashboard.
