CaliperIQ

Stop losing jobs to whoever quotes first.

An RFQ comes in by email. CaliperIQ reads it, checks it against your past jobs, and has a priced draft ready for you the same day — you review it and send.

A draft is ready while the request is still fresh — not after the customer's moved on.

How it works

  1. 1

    An RFQ lands in your inbox. CaliperIQ pulls out the part details, quantities, and specs.

  2. 2

    It checks your job history. Pricing is based on similar work you've already quoted and run — not a generic estimate.

  3. 3

    You get a draft, same day. Read it, adjust anything you want, and send it yourself.

Why response time matters

Most shops don't lose work on price or quality — they lose it on speed. While an RFQ sits in your inbox waiting for a free afternoon, the customer is already getting quotes from shops that replied first. A same-day draft means you're rarely the one still "getting to it."
