GearQuote AI reads the single-line diagram or spec sheet from an RFQ and returns a complete, priced bill of materials in about 3 minutes, every line item traceable back to the drawing. The work that ties up your applications engineer for hours on a typical lineup (and days on complex ones), done before your coffee cools.
You pick a job you've already quoted. We run it live. You grade the output.
WATCH THE 2-MINUTE DEMO: DRAWING IN, PRICED BOM OUT

of fully engineered takeoffs on real production projects
bidding live projects at a US switchgear manufacturer: drawing → priced BOM → proposal
RFQs are hitting record volume. OEM lead times pushed buyers to independent builders, and every one of those buyers wants a number fast.
Meanwhile estimators take 90 days to hire and applications engineers are buried in takeoffs.
The shop floor isn't the bottleneck anymore. The quoting desk is.
Jobs get no-bid quietlyThere's no capacity to even look, so winnable work never gets a number.
Rushed RFPs wait weeksThe buyer wanted a number in days. Your backlog says 1–2 months.
Every bid carries paddingContingency "just in case the takeoff missed something." Padding that loses jobs.
The raw PDF from the RFQ. Pick the pages that matter. No cleanup, no re-drawing, no data entry.
Sections, breakers and ratings, bus, metering, protection, transformers, matched against your price book or inventory through a multi-layer rules engine (voltage, amperage, preferred brands, your soft logic).
Your margins and multipliers applied, formatted to your own proposal template, ready to send.
GearQuote MV (medium voltage) is production-ready today. Low- and high-voltage available as custom builds; LV and HV editions on the roadmap.
Each extracted item carries a confidence score, and clicking it shows you exactly where on the drawing it was found: a screenshot of the source, not a black box. Anything below high confidence is flagged for a human pass.
Your team accepts or rejects, and the system learns only from the corrections you approve. Your engineers stay in charge; they just stop doing the reading.
Your tribal knowledge gets encoded too: soft-logic rules like "every three verticals get X structure package" or utility-specific configurations run automatically on every quote.
Every demo runs on YOUR drawing, not ours. Pick a project you've already quoted, one where you know the answer. On a 20-minute call, watch GearQuote AI produce the complete priced BOM, then compare it line-by-line against what your team produced.
If it can't beat your current process, you've lost 20 minutes. Several builders have found line items their bid-day takeoff missed.

per year turning drawings into BOMs
That's 1,260 engineering hours a year: most of a full-time applications engineer you probably can't hire anyway.
Takeoff capacity sets your ceiling. If the drawings read themselves, where would you set it?
Pipeline you never price
per year: 120 bids that go out the door unquoted
To quote them the old way you'd need ≈ 1 more applications engineer (~$110K loaded, and those roles sit open 60–90 days). With GearQuote AI, your current team quotes them all. $5,000/month. The math isn't the hard part.

No. It does the takeoff so your estimator prices, strategizes, and quotes more jobs. It turns your current team into a bigger one.
Two ways. The demo runs on a job you've already quoted, so you grade it line by line against your own numbers. Then onboarding includes a validation pass: we run 20–30 of your recent quotes and confirm the outputs match what your team produced, before you rely on it for a live bid.
Encryption at rest and in transit, two-factor auth, role-based access with approval tiers. Your data stays in your environment, and the model learns only from corrections your team explicitly approves. Security one-pager and NDA available before you send a single file.
Nothing like an ERP lift. Month one we analyze your ERP, price book, and soft logic; month two we implement; month three your team adopts with us alongside. Your side is one person, 3–5 hours a week. It starts with a paid assessment credited toward onboarding, refunded if we determine we can't do your project. No functional ERP? The system becomes your source of truth.
Keep it. GearQuote AI sits upstream; it reads the drawing so nobody has to key the configuration in by hand. Output feeds your existing workflow.
A configurator still makes a human read the spec sheet and the one-line, then key everything in. That reading is where the hours go. GearQuote AI does the reading: it reads the drawing, populates the configuration, and runs your shop's rules on top. Keep your configurator if you like it; this feeds it.
That's what the live demo is for. Bring your ugliest one-line.
Medium voltage is production-ready today. LV/HV are built as custom solutions through ClearTalk AI; ask on the call.
