People in the shop
“A small test I ran: a real RFQ to 5 Ohio fab shops. 2 never replied, and 1 inbox bounced it.”

Your estimator prices. The agent does the rest.

  • Every RFQ caught, whether it lands in your quote inbox or comes through your web form
  • Part, material, quantity, tolerance, deadline and drawing details pulled out automatically
  • Missing a print or a spec? It asks the customer before the request reaches your estimator
  • Your estimator gets a clean record instead of retyping
  • Every quote that goes out gets followed up until the buyer replies
