Drafts only. Your estimator approves every proposal
Problem
A spec book lists hundreds of items, each with a spec number, dimensions, finishes, quantities per room type and a brand standard. Each item is matched to a product, priced with material, labor, freight and import duties, and typed into the proposal by hand.
What it does
YP reads the spec book, matches each item to your products or the closest item you quoted before, and applies your costs, margins and import duties. It drafts the proposal in your ERP or quote sheet, with every price linked to the spec line and the rule behind it.
How it works
See exactly how the work gets done.
The work starts the moment a spec book arrives. A spec book in the quoting inbox starts the run, and every item is read whether it comes as a PDF or a spreadsheet.
Each item in the spec book is matched to your products. YP matches it by type, dimensions and finish to your catalog or the closest item you quoted before. Custom items are costed with your rules and marked.
The prices are calculated with your own costs. Material, labor, freight, import duties and margins come from your own price book and ERP, and not from the model.
YP asks when something is unclear and does not guess. A missing finish, an unclear quantity or a conflicting dimension goes to the estimator as a question.
Your estimator approves every proposal before it is sent. The estimator reviews the draft, adjusts it and sends it. No proposal reaches the purchasing agent or client without their approval.
The outcome
Your estimators check priced proposals instead of building them. Costs and pricing rules are written down and stay with the company.

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.
