Enquiries with a drawing are costed in hours instead of days. The AI extracts dimensions, material and tolerances and finds similar parts you have already made, and costing becomes more consistent.

Is this for you?

  • You receive many enquiries for turned, milled, sheet metal or welded parts with a drawing or 3D model.
  • Earlier parts with drawing, routing and post-costing can be found digitally.
  • Costing depends on a few experienced people and is a bottleneck.
First step today

Draw a simple test part yourself or take one of your own drawings with no customer reference, and use the template below to extract features and calculate unit costs with your rates. Customer drawings do not belong in publicly available AI tools.

How to go about it

  1. Define the costing goal and limits
  2. Connect drawings, routings and post-calculations
  3. Set up costing rules
  4. Run costings in parallel at first
  5. Quote simple parts automatically, step by step
  6. Check the order rate and post-costing
