QuoteWeaver

QuoteWeaver runs a soft-furnishings business end to end: leads, site measurements, quotes, orders, supplier purchase orders, work orders for the workshop, and delivery. Its centrepiece is a pricing studio where the shop owner sets up their own pricing logic once, without code, so an estimator can price any window on site in seconds.

The first customer was a window-furnishings company in Kochi that ran quoting from a large Excel workbook. The product grew from two small tools we built for them, a measurement form and a quoting sheet, into a multi-tenant SaaS that any furnishing business can sign up for.

In soft furnishings, one quote depends on fabric width, fullness, pattern repeat, heading and hem allowances, supplier size charts and square-foot slabs. Our first customer ran it all in a spreadsheet, and when we audited it we found totals that only calculated on the first row, a fixing charge left out of every blind quote, and a broken reference in the summary. Estimators measured on paper, priced back at the office, and quoted days later.

• Quotes took days, so customers compared prices and cooled off.
• Spreadsheet errors quietly under-charged jobs.
• Supplier price lists arrived as PDFs and phone photos and were typed in by hand.

The owner describes their pricing once in the pricing studio: fabrics with their width, rate and repeat, product styles with fullness and making charges, supplier size charts, and quote-level rules for discounts and bundles. In the field, the estimator fills one form per window (room, furnishing, measurements, options) and sees the live price of every line. The customer accepts on a link before the estimator leaves, and the order, purchase orders and work orders follow automatically.
