  • Connected from quotation to job
From chaos to clarity

Replace spreadsheets, WhatsApp and paper with one connected workflow.

The Old Way

  • RFQs scattered across email and WhatsApp
  • Quotation information buried in spreadsheets
  • Drawings and revisions stored in different places
  • Job information passed through paper
  • Managers chasing people for updates
  • Delayed quotes and unclear ownership
Disconnected tools represented as email, spreadsheet, messages, PDFs and files

The MachineFlow Way

  • Centralized RFQ management
  • Structured quotation workflow
  • AI-assisted estimation support
  • Connected drawings and files
  • Quote-to-job handoff
  • Production status visibility

Common questions

Questions machine shops usually ask first.

Is MachineFlow an ERP replacement?

No. MachineFlow focuses on the workflow between RFQs, quotations, job handoffs and production visibility. Accounting, payroll, CAM and broader ERP functions stay separate.

Who is MachineFlow built for?

MachineFlow is built for CNC machine shops, precision machining companies, job shops and tool rooms that need clearer quotation and production workflows.

How does AI fit into the quotation workflow?

AI is positioned as estimation assistance. It can help organize context such as drawing information, manufacturing summaries, complexity signals and risk notes, while the estimator remains in control.

What workflow does MachineFlow connect first?

The initial workflow focus is RFQ management, structured quotations and lightweight job tracking, with the broader product vision extending into digital job cards and production visibility.
