Manual Quote Comparison Chaos
Businesses across industries struggle to manually create, compare, and track quotes from multiple suppliers or for customers, leading to slow responses, lost deals, and error-prone decisions.
In their words
I’ve quoted 9 jobs in the past week and not one of them has come in.
Right now that's copy-paste from 5 different email formats into a manually structured Excel sheet, and it takes 30-45 minutes every time.
the largest cost is the purchaser doing his research and communication
half the quotes came back for slightly different configs so they werent comparable
the amount of quote requests and follow-ups that fall through the cracks right now is honestly embarrassing
we need a new cpq software
sometimes I wouldn't bid on a job because I knew it would take a few hours of my day to write the proposal. And that would leave money on the table.
Now I leave a site visit, and I tell Claude to take my voice recording, and Notes, and generate a proposal for X Y and Z.
I sometimes give a ballpark range at the end of our convo and they're also sometimes sticker shocked still leaving me feeling like I just wasted 30 mins on the phone.
The bot just keeps banging back the most ridiculous follow up questions.
the customer says to you well i used chatgpt and it says its not a good quote when you know its a great quote
WhatsApp/WeChat → AI → pricing/product info → Excel quotation/PI → PDF → my approval
The goal is to automate client eligibility diagnosis and commercial quote generation based on four scoring factors: Credit, Technical, Projects History, and Governance.
Buying servers is basically quote roulette now.

Why those fall short
- leads reduced, no follow-up, high cost per lead
- SAP takes months to implement, big subscription, less flexible
- no upfront pricing or minimums; slow back-and-forth
- AI questions are wrong, encyclopedic, and keep coming back
- comparison notes are a disaster, can't track anything
