QuoteFlow: 3-hour quotes became 20 minutes

AC NautitechMarine CanvasBarcelona, SpainTrade Services / Custom Fabrication

The problem

The founder was spending roughly 80% of his working time on manual quote creation. Each site visit generated 2-3 hours of admin work: measuring, looking up materials, calculating prices, formatting PDFs. With 10+ quotes per week, the business was bottlenecked by its own quoting process.

The solution

We built QuoteFlow: a voice-to-quote pipeline designed for trade businesses. The founder now records observations during site visits on his phone. AI transcribes the recording, extracts line items and measurements, matches against the existing price list, and generates a branded PDF quote. Total time: 20 minutes instead of 3 hours.
