RobinQuote: facts at a glance
RobinQuote sets up quoting and RFQ automation for job shops. A customer's PDF drawing goes in; a draft quote priced on the shop's own rates comes back in under a minute for an estimator to check and send.
- Name
- RobinQuote. Until November 2026 it was called RobinQuote.
- What it is
- RFQ and quote automation, set up for each shop: drafts quotes from customers' drawings on the shop's own rates, price list and past quotes.
- Who it is for
- Machine shops, sheet metal shops and fabricators that quote from drawings.
- Where
- Based in the Greater Toronto Area, Ontario, Canada. Works with shops anywhere: in person across southern Ontario, by video and phone everywhere else.
- What goes in
- PDF drawings, single parts or assembly drawings; a folder of drawings can run as a batch. A 3D model is not needed.
- What comes out
- An editable draft quote: operations with setup and run times, materials, outside services, cost and markup, and a price at each quantity break. Exports to Excel and CSV. Shops that only want routings can leave prices off.
- How fast
- Under a minute per drawing; 11 to 39 seconds in production.
- Review
- An estimator checks and edits every draft; every change is kept in the quote's history.
- Processes
- Sheet metal (laser, punch, brake, hardware, welding, finishing), machining (sawing, milling, turning, grinding, 3-axis and 5-axis), fabrication and weldments, outside services.
- Units and currency
- Canadian dollars, with a US-dollar view; inches, millimetres and sheet metal gauges.
- Data
- Each shop has its own workspace; drawings, quotes, rates and prices are not shared with other customers.
- Price
- Priced per shop, by quote volume and setup. A demo is free and commits you to nothing.

- In production at multiple manufacturers.
- Free tools and guides
- Sheet metal cut calculator, shop rate calculator, metal weight and cost calculator, gauge chart and more.
