AI for manufacturers
AI for manufacturers in South Africa: quotes and orders, done faster.
Your factory runs on quotes, orders and follow-ups. We find the parts of that work AI can do in your business, and build the assistants that do it, inside the tools you already use.
Where the time goes in a manufacturing business
In most manufacturing businesses, the office work around production repeats every day. It is necessary, it takes hours, and it is exactly what AI does well.
- Pricing quotes by hand from price lists, spreadsheets and old quotes
- Retyping orders from emails and PDFs into the accounting or ERP system
- Chasing quotes that went quiet
- Answering the same questions on lead times, stock and delivery
- Turning job cards and delivery notes into invoices
Where AI helps
AI assistants built for manufacturers
Quote assistant
Reads the customer's enquiry, pulls your current prices and drafts the quote in your own format. Your team checks it and sends it.
Order capture
Reads incoming orders from email and PDF and prepares them for your system, so nobody retypes them.
Follow-up and customer replies
Reminds your team which quotes to chase, and drafts replies to routine questions on lead times and delivery for approval.
“AI should give your people time back, not replace them.”

Questions
Questions manufacturers ask
Do we need new software?
Usually not. We build the AI assistants around the tools you already use, such as your email, spreadsheets and accounting or ERP system.
Can AI really price our quotes?
It drafts the quote from your own price lists and rules. A person in your team always checks and sends it, so you stay in control of every price.
What does it cost?
It depends on what we build. We start by finding the work AI can do in your business, then give you a quote before anything is built.
Where do you work?
We are based in Cape Town and work with manufacturers across South Africa, in person or online.
