Price drawings and draft quotes

Reads each customer drawing, prices it with your own rules and drafts the quote in your ERP. Your estimator checks and sends it.

Drafts only. Your estimator approves every quote
Problem

Every quote follows the same steps. Read material, dimensions, tolerances, finish and quantity from the drawing. Price it against machine rates and material costs. Type the result into the ERP. The rules behind the price sit in spreadsheets and in your estimators’ heads.

What it does

YP reads the drawing and extracts the values that drive cost. Cutting, machining and set-up times come from comparable past jobs or your time standards. It applies your rates, margins and minimum quantities and creates a draft quote in your ERP, with each number linked to the drawing, job or rule it came from.

How it works

See exactly how the work gets done.

The work starts the moment a drawing arrives. A new request in the quoting inbox starts the run, and the attached drawings are read straight away.

Every price is calculated with your own rules. Machine rates, material prices, time standards, margins and minimums come from your own sheets and ERP, so the prices come from your data and not from the model.

The draft quote is written into the ERP you already use. It appears in SAP, Business Central or your own system, so your team does not have to open a new portal.

YP asks when something is unclear and does not guess. A missing tolerance or an unreadable dimension goes to the estimator as a question.

Your estimator decides what goes to the customer. The estimator reviews the draft, adjusts it and sends it, and no quote reaches a customer without their approval.

The outcome

Your estimators review drafts instead of typing them. The pricing rules are written down and stay with the company.

01
1 draft per drawing

Priced and ready for review in your ERP

02
5 values read

Material, dimensions, tolerances, finish and quantity

03
Estimator approves

Every quote, before it goes out

For your numbers

YP drafts a priced quote from every drawing, so your estimators send more quotes in the same time and win more orders.

How it runs

Designed for enterprise.

Private

Runs on your infrastructure. Drawings, prices, client and claims data never train a model.

Explainable

Not a black box. An AI auditor checks that every task was done as intended and proposes improvements.

Traceable

Every value links to the document, rule or record it came from. Every step is logged. A named person approves anything that leaves the building.

Your systems

Works in your ERP, CargoWise, policy system, GIS and file shares. Nothing is replaced.
