Quotes out in minutes, not days.
Tell Axle the job the way your tech would say it. It scopes from your history, prices from your price book, and hands you a finished BOM and proposal in your exact template. You approve, it goes.

However the job shows up, Axle takes it.
Requests don't arrive clean. They arrive as a text from a tech on location, a forwarded email chain, a photo of a handwritten list. Axle reads all of it.
Forwarded emails
The customer's request, straight from the inbox, attachments and all.
Field texts & photos
What your techs send from location, including pictures of the list on a napkin.
PDFs & spreadsheets
Bid lists, RFQs, and purchase orders in whatever format the customer uses.
A phone line Axle answers
Give techs and customers a number. Axle takes the order by voice and confirms stock live on the call.
The source stays attached to the quote, so when someone asks where a line came from, the answer is one click away.
Onboard from the exports you already have.
No migration and no second system. Axle builds your quoting brain from the files sitting on your server right now: an inventory report, your rate sheets, a folder of past quotes.
Your catalog, parsed
Upload the inventory report you already run from QuickBooks or your ERP. Thousands of items, internal part numbers, aliases and all. A plain-language ask maps to your parts and your units.
Price memory with receipts
Every price carries its source and its date: the price book, a completed job, a supplier quote. Drafts show where each number came from, so approving takes seconds instead of spelunking.
Supplier pricing, current
Updated pricing from your distributors flows into drafts with the date on it, so you're not bidding off the January sheet in August.
Your rules, enforced. Your people, in charge.
Speed doesn't mean handing the pen to the machine. Pricing authority stays exactly where you put it.
- Keep a person approving every bid before it sends, or set rules for what can go out automatically
- Margin rules and approval thresholds configured per customer
- Axle never invents a number: if it doesn't know a price, it asks
- Every draft, edit, and send is versioned and logged
It gets better every time you hit send.
Upload the final you actually sent the customer, the edited BOM or the marked-up proposal, and Axle compares it to its own draft, line by line. The quantities you changed, the part you swapped, the wording your customers expect: all of it feeds the next draft.
Price corrections queue for a human click. Axle never changes your pricing on its own.
That's how the judgment in your best estimator's head becomes something the whole shop can use, and it's why the tool your team uses in month six is sharper than the one they started with.
See what all that bidding is worth.
Every quote is tracked, so you can see win rates by customer and product, what's outstanding right now, and the dollars forecast to close this month and next. The pipeline stops living in one person's inbox.
Call, ask for parts, get the quote by text.
The demo line runs this product start to finish. It answers as Axle Supply, a fictional parts house. Describe what you need the way a tech would at the counter. About a minute after you hang up, a link to a finished PDF quote lands in your texts: line items, quantities, pricing, stock status, lead times.

Common questions.
How do requests get to Axle?
Forward the email, drop in the texts and photos your techs send, upload the PDF or spreadsheet, or give your techs and customers a number Axle answers and it takes the order by voice. The original request stays attached to the quote.
Does anything go out without me seeing it?
Only if you want it to. Keep a person approving every bid before it sends, or set rules for what can go out automatically. Every quote and every version is logged either way.
Will it match our internal part numbers and naming?
Yes. Axle learns your catalog, your aliases, and your descriptions, so a plain-language ask maps to your parts and your units, not generic ones.
What do we need to get started?
The exports you already have: a QuickBooks or ERP inventory report, your rate sheets, your proposal template, and a folder of past quotes. Onboarding takes about a week and nothing gets migrated.
Can it handle bundled bids across product lines?
Yes. A package that crosses parts, labor, and rentals, or multiple product lines, compiles into one document, with each piece priced from its own rate structure.
How does the learning work?
Upload the final you actually sent and Axle compares it to its own draft, line by line. Price corrections queue for one-click human approval. It never changes pricing on its own.
Thirty minutes. Your price book, bidding itself.
Bring a recent bid and we'll show you what Axle builds from the same request. Or call the demo line first and let it make its own case.
