Priced quote out.
Minutes, not hours.

The whole quote, one screen at a time
01
Drop in the RFQ
Paste an email, upload a PDF, or snap a photo of a fax. AI turns it into clean line items — or type them in yourself.
02
Fan out supplier RFQs
Pick suppliers per line, generate a tailored RFQ document for each, and track who's answered.
03
Capture every price
Key prices into the matrix or let AI read the supplier's quote back in. Every number feeds your price history.
04
Mark up & send
Pick the winning costs, apply your markup, and print a clean customer quote. Costs are snapshotted — sent quotes never drift.
INTAKE
AI intake that respects the trade
“4 shts 1/4 plate 4x8, 10 pc 3x3x1/4 angle” parses into real line items with sizes, grades and quantities. Works from email text, PDFs, even photos.
COMPARE
A price matrix, not a spreadsheet
Every line × every supplier in one grid. Lowest cost highlighted, one click to select, freight and validity captured alongside.
HISTORY
A catalog that learns your market
Each supplier price is recorded against the item automatically. Next time that angle comes up, you see six months of price history before you commit.
TEAM
Team-ready from day one
Invite estimators and counter staff to your shop. Owners and admins control roles; every shop's data stays strictly its own.
Price intelligence
Every quote makes the next one smarter
Supplier prices are recorded against your catalog the moment they're entered — not when a quote wins. Trend lines, highs and lows, and last-paid prices are waiting the next time that item shows up.
