QuoteForge
From inbound brief to signed PDF in under a minute. The studio's own quoting engine — now productised.
View liveQuoting is the bottleneck in every service business. The brief arrives, sits in a queue for 24–72 hours while someone manually scopes it, then gets sent as a generic PDF that requires back-and-forth before signing. By then the prospect has moved on.
We built QuoteForge as an internal tool first: brief arrives via webhook, AI scopes the work against our service templates, generates line items with time estimates, renders a branded PDF via Astro SSR, and fires it to the prospect via Resend with a Stripe payment link. The whole pipeline runs in under a minute.
- Median time from brief to sent proposal: 47 seconds
- Proposal acceptance rate increased 34% vs manual process
- Zero formatting errors across 200+ generated documents
The insight was that speed itself is a trust signal. When a prospect gets a detailed, well-formatted proposal within a minute of submitting their brief, it communicates competence more than any portfolio page could.
- Brief to signed PDF in under 60 seconds
- Configurable line-item templates per service tier
- Stripe payment links embedded in the signed document
