The challenge

Quoting laser work by eye leaks margin.

By hand it's slow. By guesswork it's expensive.

Our solution

The QuadQuote Quote step: the costing column adds machine time, setup, bending, material and freight to a total including tax, beside the sheets the job needs.

Drop in your drawings. QuadQuote nests the parts and prices the job.

What's inside

Licence levels

Everything between the drawing and the quote.

Every drawing, checked

All the job's drawings in one list, with faults flagged so nothing is priced by accident.

The QuadQuote Parts step: DXF, DWG, STEP and NC1 drawings listed with their parts, stock, quantities, bends and prices.

Customers and markups

Quick tiles for your regulars, each with their own markups and minimum charges.

Your material library

Your metals, sheet sizes, cutting speeds and prices. Import it from a spreadsheet.

One database for the shop

Change a price in the office and it's on the shop floor a moment later.

Automatic backups

A copy every day, the last seven kept, and restore when you need it.

Every quote and job in one place

Quotes and orders side by side, with follow-up reminders and a countdown on every quote.

The QuadQuote Main page: customer quick tiles, the New quote panel, and the lists of quotes and orders with their statuses.

Drawings repaired, not redrawn

Open outlines and stray lines are found for you, with a fix suggested for each. The original file is never touched.

The QuadQuote drawing editor on a dark canvas: a part outline with an open contour ringed in red, and the list of faults with Inteli Repair's proposed fix.

Questions

Straight answers.

How does the free trial work?

Ask for one below and we'll email you the installer and a trial code. When you buy, you enter a new code: nothing to reinstall, nothing lost.

What does QuadQuote run on?

Windows PCs. It's a desktop program, not a website.

Which drawing files can it read?

DXF, DWG, STEP and NC1. DWG needs the free ODA File Converter, and QuadQuote shows you where to get it.

Does it need the internet?

Only to activate, renew or move a licence, and for the AI email reader if you switch it on. Quoting itself never does.

Can the whole shop use it?

Yes. Each PC needs a licence, and they all share one database. A PC that only stores the database needs no licence.

What about renewals and new computers?

A renewal is a new code: enter it and carry on. To change computers, free the licence on the old PC, then activate the new one with the same code.
