In your words
“RFQs sit in my inbox for days.”
“Our best estimator is the bottleneck.”
“We lose jobs because we quote too slowly.”
What we build
An assistant that reads incoming RFQ emails and attachments, pulls out part details, quantities, materials and deadlines, and drafts a quote in your format using your own rates and past quotes. Your estimator reviews and approves. Nothing goes to a customer without a person.
How an RFQ could move through the system:
- RFQ email arrives
- Reads attachments and drawing notes
- Extracts part, material, quantity, due date
- Drafts quote from your rate sheet
- Estimator reviews and approves
- Quote sent
How it works

Questions
Does it replace my estimator?
No. It prepares the first draft; they approve.
What about complex drawings?
We start with the simple, repeat parts and flag the rest for a person.
Who owns it?
You own what we build for you.
Does it send quotes itself?
No, not unless you choose that later.
Send us three recent RFQs and we will show a draft quote.
