What it does

Instant quoting, in plain terms

Upload DXF or STEP

Customers drop their files in on your website. Parts are read from the file, including cut length, holes and bends.

Material, thickness and quantity

They pick from the materials and thicknesses you stock, and the quantity they need.

Laser and press brake

The price covers cutting and bending, including bend count and brake setup.

Quantity breaks and minimum order

Price per part drops with quantity the way you set it, and your minimum order is applied to the quote.

Your rates, in an admin

The shop sets material costs, machine rates, setup, margins, breaks and minimums. Nobody edits a spreadsheet.

Where it sits in the flow

Instant quoting is the quote step for cut-and-bend work. The customer gets a price without waiting for someone to open the file, and the shop gets a quote with the parts, material and quantities already filled in.

There’s a full walk-through, with an interactive example, on the instant quoting page.
