The business challenge
Is quotation preparation taking too much of your time?
For many business owners, preparing quotations is a necessary but time-consuming responsibility.
Customer enquiries arrive through websites, emails, telephone calls and messaging applications. Information must be gathered, requirements clarified, prices calculated and professional quotations prepared.
A more organised quotation process can help businesses respond efficiently, reduce repetitive work and maintain better control over potential sales opportunities.
Two ways to create quotations. One connected system. Customers can begin through a guided website assistant, while authorised staff retain control through a quotation management dashboard.
How it works
From customer enquiry to professional quotation.
02 · Requirements
Relevant customer information, product selections, quantities and service requirements are collected and organised.
03 · Controlled pricing
Quotation values are calculated using approved products, services, rates and pricing rules.
04 · Draft quotation
A professional quotation is prepared using the customer's requirements and calculated pricing.
05 · Business approval
The business owner or authorised employee reviews the quotation and approves it before delivery.
06 · Delivery & follow-up
The approved quotation is sent to the customer and recorded in the quotation management system. Quotation statuses and follow-up requirements can be tracked to support ongoing customer communication.
Two connected approaches
Flexible quotation management for your business.
Customer-facing AI quotation assistant
An intelligent website assistant guides customers through the information required for a quotation. Rather than relying on a basic contact form, the assistant can ask relevant questions based on the customer's requirements. The information is then organised into a structured quotation request.

Human approval
The business retains responsibility for commercial terms, special arrangements and final approval before a quotation is sent.
AI should not independently invent prices, discounts or commercial commitments. Proposed functionality and integrations are assessed against each business’s requirements.
