FABRICATION
Your enquiries take hours to become job sheets.
Same mess every fabrication shop has: the quoting is quick, the gathering is not. Photos, half a measurement, a “roughly how much?” and then two days of chasing before anyone can put a number on it. Here’s what that looks like fixed, one workflow at a time.

THE FIXES
Three fixes that give the week back.
Nothing here is a new tool you have to learn. It’s your existing workflow, straightened out, with AI doing the boring gathering.
01Enquiry to job sheet
AUTOMATE
BEFOREA photo and a vague email sit in the inbox for two days before anyone can price them.
AFTEREvery enquiry becomes a structured job sheet the same day, ready for you to put a number on.
02Quote follow-up
AUTOMATE
BEFOREQuotes go out, then get chased from memory, if they get chased at all.
AFTERFollow-ups send themselves on a schedule you set, in your words, until you get an answer.
03Variations and rework
SYSTEMISE
BEFOREChanges get agreed on the phone mid-job and never make it onto the invoice.
AFTEREvery variation is logged and priced before the work starts, so the invoice matches the job.
