Quote Assist: Now with Guided Learning

The guide gives you a quick walkthrough of how to:

  • Use the Cost Builder to build your Unit Cost with materials, tooling, and processes

  • Apply markup or edit prices directly

  • Skip the detailed breakdown and quote instantly

  • Preview what buyers see while keeping your cost details private

A Smarter, More Personalized Quoting Engine

Quote Assist now maintains a repository of your past assumptions — materials you often use, common processes, typical markups, and the patterns behind your quoting decisions. This foundation is where upcoming Quote Intelligence recommendations will live.

As you quote, Quote Assist will begin giving you tailored, shop-specific feedback, helping you:

  • Identify when your price is out of sync with similar work

  • Spot risky or complex RFQs faster

  • Understand how your quoting style compares to winning quotes across the platform

  • Reduce time spent re-building costs you’ve already quoted before

Every quote you run makes the tool smarter, giving you quicker builds, more consistent pricing, and increasingly tailored guidance as you go. You can log into your MFG account anytime to explore the new updates and start using Quote Assist right away.
