From STEP file to priced quote in minutes.
Upload your STEP file and 2D drawing. QuoteForge reads geometry, tolerances, threads and finish notes, prices the full RFQ - including multiple parts - and generates a branded PDF quote in minutes.
From file to quote in three steps
Stop spending an hour per RFQ. QuoteForge handles the calculations while you stay in control of the final price.
Upload your STEP
Drag in your STEP — and the 2D drawing PDF if you have one. We pull geometry from the CAD and threads, tolerances, surface finish and notes from the drawing. Multiple parts in one upload, no problem.
AI prices it against your shop
The deterministic engine reads your machines, materials, feeds & speeds, and secondary operations. Setup, cycle time, material, finishing — all priced.
Send a branded quote
PDF with your logo, VAT, bank details, lead time and ship date. Customer accepts (or declines, with feedback) from a one-click link. You see it live.
Built for real machine shops
Built around how an estimator actually reads an RFQ: CAD, drawing, tolerances, finishing, quantity and lead time - all priced against your shop data.
STEP + drawing in one drop
Geometry from the STEP, threads, tolerances, surface finish and notes from the 2D PDF. Both files in one upload, one part spec.
Multi-part RFQs in one quote
Whole assembly, one workflow. Each part keeps its own material, tolerances, finish and quantity tiers — totalled into a single branded PDF.
Tolerance-aware pricing
ISO IT grades, ISO 2768 shop defaults, or custom ±mm bands — per part or per feature. Tight tolerances cost more, loose ones don't get over-priced.
Mill, turn, EDM, 5-axis
Pockets, drilled and tapped holes, grooves, threads, turned features, wire and sinker EDM, complex 5-axis — recognised and costed, not lumped into one rate.
DFM checks before you send
Thin walls, tight tolerances on hard features, ambiguous specs — flagged on the quote. If we can't tell, we ask the customer instead of guessing.
Branded PDF, online accept
Your logo, VAT and bank details on the quote. Customer accepts (or declines, with a reason) from a shareable link. Lead time and ship date baked in.
Who QuoteForge is for
For CNC suppliers, larger shops, and buyers who need a faster way to price and validate machined-part quotes.
Machine shops and job shops
Quote mixed mill, turn, EDM, 5-axis, and secondary-operation work without rebuilding every RFQ from scratch.
Growing and larger CNC teams
Give estimating, sales, and operations a shared quote view when the shop has more machines, materials, and approval steps.
Buyers and sourcing teams
Validate supplier quotes, compare assumptions, and understand where tolerances, materials, and lead time affect the final price.

Simple pricing, real numbers
Pay per part you compute. A simple cut part costs only a quarter of a credit, and you can buy credit packs whenever you need them. No per-seat fees.
Starter
- 50 credits/month (≈ up to 200 simple parts)
- All core features
- Branded PDF
- Customer accept online
Growth
Includes everything in Starter
- 250 credits/month
- Credit packs available
- Custom branding
Pro
Includes everything in Growth
- 1,000 credits/month
- Vendor management
How credits work
Need more? Credit packs start at EUR 99 for 50 extra credits.
- You are billed per part you compute - never per quote, never per seat.
- 1 credit = one complex machined part (holes, pockets, threads, curved or turned features). A simple cut part — a plate, profile or bar with no machined features — is only ¼ of a credit, so a 50-credit plan covers up to ~200 simple parts.
- Upload a weldment or assembly and we explode it into its distinct parts and charge once per distinct part. Identical repeated parts count once, and the assembly frame itself is free.
- Attaching a technical drawing adds ½ a credit per distinct drawing for the AI drawing analysis — parts that share the same drawing pay it once, and parts quoted from the 3D model alone add nothing.
- Your first 15 credits are free — no credit card.
