# Customiser > Customiser is AI estimating and quoting software for contract manufacturers. Forward an RFQ, drawing package or BOM and get back a priced, cost ready quote in minutes, with every number traceable to the document it came from. Customiser reads manufacturing technical documents (PDFs, TIFFs, DXFs, Excel BOMs, scanned prints and points lists), measures the features that drive cost, matches incoming items against your catalogue, and applies your own labour standards and rate cards. It is built for wire and tube fabricators, sheet metal shops, panel and switchgear builders, and precision component manufacturers. Last updated: 2026-07-30. ## Core pages - [Customiser home](https://customiser.ai): What Customiser reads, how a quote is produced, and an ROI calculator for estimating quoting capacity. - [How it works](https://customiser.ai/how-it-works): From forwarded RFQ to approved quote: how Customiser extracts, analyses, matches and prices your jobs step by step. - [Solutions overview](https://customiser.ai/solutions): Four ways Customiser reads your parts: wire and tube fabrication, sheet metal and fabrication, panels and switchgear, and precision components. - [Book a demo](https://customiser.ai/contact): Thirty minutes, your documents, live. If we cannot read your parts, you will know on the first call. ## Solutions - [Wire and tube fabrication](https://customiser.ai/solutions/wire-tube-fabrication): Bend counts, radii and cut lengths measured from geometry. Quote wire forms and tube work without counting by hand. - [Sheet metal and fabrication](https://customiser.ai/solutions/sheet-metal-fabrication): Turn a drawing package into a cost ready takeoff. Features, materials and finishing extracted and priced with your own rates. - [Panels and switchgear](https://customiser.ai/solutions/panels-switchgear): Points lists and single line diagrams turned into component counts, I/O totals and labour hours from your own standards. - [Precision components](https://customiser.ai/solutions/precision-components): Spec libraries, designation cross referencing and history calibrated estimating. ## Capabilities - Document extraction: every line item, tag and callout structured from PDFs, TIFFs, DXFs, Excel BOMs, scanned prints and points lists. - Geometry and bend counting: wire and tube centrelines decomposed into straights and arcs, so bend counts and radii are measured, not guessed. - Cross referencing: drawings checked against BOMs, diagram against diagram, revision against revision. - Catalogue matching: incoming items resolved against your parts, codes and equivalents. - Pricing engine: your labour standards, rate cards and material costs applied the same way every time. - Review and handoff: side by side review against the source document, exported in the shape your system imports. ## Deployment - Cloud: an isolated tenant per customer. - On premise: the engine runs inside your network. ## Company - [Referral program](https://customiser.ai/referral): Introduce a contract manufacturer to Customiser and earn 20% of the first year contract value, up to $100,000. ## Optional - [Privacy policy](https://customiser.ai/privacy): How Customiser handles, protects and processes customer data, including GDPR commitments. - [Terms of service](https://customiser.ai/terms): Usage agreement for the Customiser platform and its document processing services. - [XML sitemap](https://customiser.ai/sitemap.xml): Machine readable list of every indexable page on customiser.ai. - [Robots file](https://customiser.ai/robots.txt): Crawl rules, including explicit allowances for AI retrieval agents.
