Quote faster, run a leaner office.
The factory is efficient, the office often isn't. We put AI on quoting and the paperwork so your team keeps production moving.
Most SME manufacturers have spent years tightening up the shop floor. Lean processes, tight tolerances, a team that knows what it's doing. But step into the office and you'll often find the same handful of people re-keying purchase orders, building quotes from scratch, and fielding calls about where an order has got to.
Fettle puts AI to work on the paperwork and admin that slows your office down, so your team can focus on keeping production moving. Quoting, order processing, customer updates, supplier chasing: all of it handled faster, with fewer errors and less back and forth.
AI for your business, at a glance.
Agents built around your desk.
Off-the-shelf tools where they fit, and bespoke AI agents we build, run and improve for you where they don't. Here's where we'd start.
Quoting Agent
Drafts quotes from specs and your pricing for review.
Order Admin Agent
Turns POs into clean production paperwork automatically.
Customer Update Agent
Answers lead-time and order-status questions instantly.
Supplier Coordination Agent
Chases materials and flags schedule risks early.
What changes, with examples.
An estimator spends an hour or more pulling apart a spec sheet, checking material costs, and building a quote in a spreadsheet before it can go out.
The Quoting Agent reads the spec, pulls your pricing and margins, and drafts a ready-to-review quote in minutes.
Someone manually re-keys the purchase order into your job sheet, works order, or ERP, which takes time and introduces errors.
The Order Admin Agent reads the incoming PO and generates clean, accurate production paperwork automatically, ready for the shop floor.
A customer rings or emails asking where their order is, and someone has to stop what they're doing, check the schedule, and call them back.
The Customer Update Agent pulls the live order status and answers instantly, with no one on your team needing to get involved.
A week with Fettle: a busy subcontract manufacturer
On Monday morning, three quote requests land from different customers. Instead of the estimator spending half the day on them, the Quoting Agent drafts all three for a quick sense-check and sign-off before lunch. Mid-week, a batch of POs comes in from a key account, and the Order Admin Agent turns them straight into works orders without anyone re-keying a thing. By Friday, when a customer chases for a delivery date, the Customer Update Agent replies with the accurate lead time before the phone has even been put down. The office team ends the week having actually moved work forward, rather than just processing it.

Our quoting is complicated. We deal with tight tolerances and custom specs every time. Can AI really handle that?

We already use an ERP or job management system. Will this just create more tools to manage?

What if our supplier and customer data is sensitive? We can not have that going anywhere it shouldn't.
