Machine Shops
CNC, manual, Swiss, screw machine. 3–15 people. The heartland customer.
Quote a job in under 5 minutes. Track it through the shop. Invoice it with one click. JobQuote IQ is the tool a machinist would build if machinists wrote software. No bloat. No per-user pricing. No data-entry person required.
Three screens. One job per screen. That’s the product. Everything else is a trap.
Drop in the customer. Add line items for material, labor hours, and outside services. Markup and tax auto-apply. Hit send — PDF lands in the customer’s inbox with your logo on it.
Keyboard-first. You’ll crank through a busy morning of quotes without touching the mouse.
Customer accepts the quote? It becomes a Job automatically. No re-typing. No “convert to job” wizard. It just shows up in your job list.
Four statuses: New, In Progress, Complete, Shipped. That’s the whole workflow. This is not a scheduling system. No Gantt charts. No machine utilization. No capacity planning. You already know what’s on the floor.
Mark a job complete. Click “Create Invoice.” Done. The invoice pre-populates from the accepted quote — same customer, same line items, same pricing.
QuickBooks sync pushes the customer and invoice over for you. Your bookkeeper stops hating you.
Same workflow — customer, quote, job, invoice. Different materials, different units, different rates. JobQuote IQ handles all four with the same three screens.
CNC, manual, Swiss, screw machine. 3–15 people. The heartland customer.
Laser, waterjet, press brake, weld, finish. Multiple operations per part.
TIG, MIG, stick. In-shop, mobile, on-site. Travel and per-diem built in.
Millwork, cabinetry, furniture. Board-foot pricing. Progress billing.
A 5-person shop on the Shop plan is $29.80 per user. The same shop on JobBoss is $750 a month. You do the math.
14-day free trial on every plan. No credit card required. Cancel anytime.
30 minutes to set up. 5 minutes per quote. Zero data-entry people. Zero credit card to start. Zero excuses.
