About QuoteBuddy

QuoteBuddy is EU-hosted AI quoting software for machine shops, job shops and sheet-metal fabricators. You save shop parameters, upload a technical drawing, review the extracted features and costs, and download a PDF quote. The live plan table meters automatic quotes and team seats12.

Pick QuoteBuddy if

  • Your RFQs arrive as PDF, PNG or JPG drawings and a PDF quote is the handoff you need.
  • You want an EU-hosted tool with a free 30-day unlimited AI-quote period.
  • You need team seats and quote volume that fit QuoteBuddy's Starter, Professional or Business tiers.

Pick QuotedPart if

  • You need STEP or IGES geometry measured, not only a drawing interpreted.
  • You want JobBOSS² or JobBOSS output and editable operation routing on your rates.
  • Your buyer should choose a quantity and accept online with a PO instead of receiving only a PDF.

What QuotedPart does

  • RFQs by email forwarding, your own RFQ page, or drag and drop
  • PDF drawings read for part number, revision, material, finish, tolerances, threads and notes
  • STEP and IGES models measured in your browser: stock, holes, pockets, setups, turned features, sheet thickness and bends
  • A routing on your own work centers and rates, with setup and run minutes for every operation, all editable
  • Every quantity break priced, with cost, margin and lead time
  • A quote page with your logo where the buyer picks a quantity and accepts with a PO, or a PDF
  • Won quotes become orders; actual hours show where each work center runs over or under; similar parts you quoted before show up next to the new one

About the team and the company

Quoting software for bigger shops is sold through demos, setup fees and multi-year contracts. We think a small shop should be able to see the price, run a part it has already quoted, and decide in an afternoon.

If a quote comes out wrong, email me the part. We'll look at it with you and fix the estimate.
