Describe any metal-fab job in plain English. Get back a fully itemized quote — cut lists, materials, consumables, hardware, labor, even the build sequence — on your shop's rates and your gear. Minutes, not a Sunday at the kitchen table.
Not a glorified calculator. CreateQuote builds the whole package — cut lists, materials, consumables, hardware, labor, build sequence — and it actually knows how a fab shop runs.
Plain-English or photos. Gates, railings, stairs, bumpers, signs, trailers — or a total one-off. If you can fab it, it'll quote it.
Real cut lists with profiles, lengths and quantities. Material costs from actual supplier pricing — not napkin math.
Materials, consumables, hardware & BOM, labor hours — every line broken out, so you and your customer see exactly where the number comes from.
Shop PDF with full cut list and build sequence. Client PDF with clean pricing. Materials-only PDF for the supplier run.
Add your equipment, your labor rates, your material costs, your markup. Quote with your gear — not some generic shop's numbers.
Weld process detection, TIG vs MIG multipliers, finish types, stock-length optimization. This tool knows how fab shops work.
Two things no other quoting tool does — because this one was built on a shop floor.
CreateQuote doesn't stop at the numbers — it spots where the right shop tool would speed the build. Clamps, squares, fixtures, jigs under $200, suggested per job. Small upgrades, less fighting the job. Your shop gets smarter with every quote.
Every quote, a 3D drawing of the part — generated straight from your cut list. Catch the problems on screen, not at the table.
CreateQuote isn't a black box spitting out somebody else's numbers. Load in your equipment, your labor rates, your material costs, your markup — and every quote runs on your shop. Tune any line, override anything, make it yours.
Three steps. No spreadsheets. No guessing.
Tell us what you're building in plain English. Upload reference photos if you have them. Dimensions, materials, and finish requirements are extracted automatically.
The system asks only what it needs — gate width, railing height, material grade, finish type. No redundant questions, no 50-field forms.
