CNC file-to-quote: upload CAD, get a machining quote

CNC machinists: upload a file, get a quote. Less quoting, more cutting.

Quote requests with files in every format and hours spent quoting jobs you don't win. We build file-to-quote systems for CNC machinists.

Looking for CNC instant quoting software?

Quoting machining jobs takes time. We build portals where customers upload files, choose materials and get a quote or a fast review.

Wollopit builds trade portals, quoting tools, production systems and integrations for CNC machinists around how your factory or warehouse actually runs. We connect the systems you already use, replace the ones holding you back and look after the lot on our own servers, so orders flow without anyone retyping them.

What we hear from CNC machinists

Does your CNC machining business have these problems? Here's how we'd fix them.

06How we work

The process

Some people dip their toe in. We turn up in a rebreather.

We get properly below the surface of your CNC machining business: the systems, the busy days and the jobs everyone hates. Then we fix the bits that matter most first.

  1. 01

    Think

    We spend time with the people doing the work, see where the hours go and work out what's actually slowing you down.

  2. 02

    Archi-tech

    We plan it before writing code: your data, customers, payments, the tools you keep, hosting and cost.

  3. 03

    Build

    Real engineering, shown to you early and often. Usually the most painful bit first, so you get a win quickly.

  4. 04

    Look after

    We host it, maintain it and keep improving it. When something breaks you call the people who built it.

07Questions

FAQ

Things CNC machinists ask us.

Something else on your mind? Ring 0423 011 252 and ask the people who'd build it.

Can quotes be fully automatic?

Simple parts can be estimated automatically. Complex parts go to a review queue so you check them first.

How much does it cost?

It depends on what you need, so we quote up front once we understand your CNC machining business. No surprise invoices, no lock-in and you own what we build.

Can it connect to our inventory and accounting?

Usually, yes. We connect to common systems like Cin7, Unleashed, Xero and MYOB so orders, stock and invoices flow through on their own.

Can trade customers see their own pricing?

Yes. Each account logs in to its own price list, order history and reorder button, with credit terms and invoices handled automatically.

Who looks after it once it's built?

We do. We host it on our own managed servers and keep it updated and secure. When you need something you ring the people who built it.

We already have systems. Can you upgrade them instead of starting again?

Usually, yes. Most CNC machinists we work with keep what's working and upgrade the rest in stages. We move your data across, connect the old and new while we switch and retire the old system only when the new one is proven.
