The agent runs the order until a person needs to take over

Your Pro sends a list

Forward the email, drop in a batch, or let it arrive straight from a customer. A PDF, a spreadsheet, or a photo of handwriting lands in an inbox we set up for you.

Your team reviews the matches

The agent handles the lines it is sure of. Anything below that bar is flagged for review and comes first, so a person only touches the lines that need one.

It goes out as a quote

One click in Toolbx turns the reviewed draft into a quote, ready to send back to your Pro.

Nothing retyped

Everything on the document lands in the draft, down to the notes

The customer, the account, the job site and the notes come off it too, along with the requested date and the will-call details, if your Pro wrote them down. Your desk gets the whole draft in as little as 90 seconds, and takes it from there.

Pick any line and the agent shows you the writing it came from.

Where a person steps in

Your team works the messy lines, not all of them

Anything the agent isn't sure of comes back flagged for review, so your team's time goes to the lines that need a person. The odd shorthand, the special orders and anything it could not place come first; everything else is confirmed in one click. You send the approved quote from Toolbx, and it syncs to your ERP.

Rules you write

Test it on your own descriptions, then teach it how your yard talks

You type a description like 4" PVC Pipe, S40 into Test Product Match and see the match it would make, before a single order runs through it. The rules are plain English and you write them yourself, and a correction on a line can be saved as a rule, so the same miss does not happen twice.
