Where the revenue leaks

These are the three gaps we see most often, and the reason this system exists.

Enquiries wait for the owner

Quotes are built by hand, so the first supplier to reply often wins.

Specifications are messy

Buyers write sizes, grades and quantities in free text.

Follow-up is inconsistent

Quotes go out and nobody checks whether the buyer replied.

The same team and the same leads. A different result.

What changes when the routine work runs itself.

Without automation

How the system runs

The path of one enquiry through the automation, step by step.

Owner alertsLive
  • Enquiry readProduct, size, qty
  • Owner approvalApproved
  • Follow-upStops on reply
  1. Marketplace enquiry arrives

    The system receives each lead and logs it in your leads sheet.

  2. AI reads the specification

    It extracts product, size, grade and quantity and matches your catalogue.

  3. Rule-based pricing

    Price and freight come from your catalogue and freight sheets. The AI does not set prices.

  4. Quote document

    A quote document and PDF are generated with a validity date and a version number.

  5. Owner approval

    You approve or edit the quote before anything reaches the buyer.

  6. Sent in chat

    The quote goes out in chat and respects messaging windows and approved templates.

  7. Buyer replies

    Revisions, negotiation and a call-a-salesperson option are handled, with a handoff when needed.

  8. Follow-ups that stop

    Follow-up messages continue until the buyer replies or opts out.

What the automation does for your manufacturers and exporters business

Each capability is configured around your process, not forced into a template.

  • Enquiry reading

    Product, size, grade, quantity and city are extracted from free text.

  • Catalogue matching

    Specifications map to your products and stock.

  • Rule-based pricing

    Price and freight come from your own sheets. The AI never sets a price.

  • Quote document

    A quote document and PDF are generated with a validity date and version number.

  • Owner approval

    Nothing reaches the buyer without your yes.

  • Buyer replies and negotiation

    Revisions, negotiation and a call-a-salesperson option, with handoff when needed.

Questions about manufacturers and exporters automation

Does the AI decide the price?

No. Prices come from your sheets by rule. The AI reads the enquiry and writes the message.

Can I stop a quote before it is sent?

Yes. Every quote waits for owner approval.

Which marketplaces does it work with?

B2B marketplaces such as IndiaMART and TradeIndia, and your own website and chat enquiries.

What if the AI misreads a specification?

You see the quote before the buyer does. Edit it, or reject it.
