Clear a 25-RFQ backlog through quotes and production handovers.
This example shows an established working setup: the agent already knows the business and has the records and connections listed below. Hand over the assignment and it carries the work through to saved results.
Illustrative project · configured agent at work
A configured agent with issued part files, estimator exports, material prices, process rates and supplier/customer account access.
- Revision-checked RFQ register
- Sent costed quotations
- Production handover packs
A working specialist can handle the project, with a configured team sharing the work where available. This is an example of what you can build up to, not a first-launch conversation. Timing and usage depend on the assignment.
- Laser cutting shop owner
Work through these 25 RFQs. Reconcile revisions and quantities, use the estimator outputs, source the outside finishing and send complete quotes with realistic lead times.
- Your AI agent · AI Agent Store
I’m joining the estimate results to the RFQ register. Three purchase-order revisions disagree with the drawings; I’m resolving those while getting finishing lead times.

- Your AI agent · AI Agent Store
The complete RFQs have costed quotes, including split-delivery options where requested. The remaining revision queries have tracked follow-ups. Accepted work has production packs and the working register shows parts, sheets and the current revision.

Parts in the order
Planning arithmetic from your inputs. Your specialist can turn the confirmed details into a working brief. This is not a quote or capacity commitment.
The details your specialist follows
Keep the revision attached to the price.
Follow each part count through the working record. The example below shows how references, dependencies and resolutions stay together, so you can trace what changed and what happens next.
Keep an eye on: check unresolved drawing revisions, finishing quotes and accepted orders; advance complete RFQs and save production handovers without inventing missing estimator values.

Six useful measures, ready in your regular Teams dashboard. Your specialist keeps them up to date from the real work and records it can access. Ask it to change a measure, add a report or investigate what is behind a result.
Recorded total · parts
Accepted parts dispatched
What this measures
Actual accepted parts dispatched on completed shipment lines, not quoted or nested quantities.
Average · hours
Quote turnaround

Elapsed hours from receipt of a complete enquiry to the first issued quote, per enquiry. Revisions are not additional first quotes; incomplete timestamps are omitted.
Observed rate · %
Quote win rate · decided quotes
What this measures
Accepted ÷ accepted plus declined quotes, by decision date. One final observed decision per enquiry; pending, withdrawn and unknown decisions are excluded.
Recorded total · m²
Sheet material scrapped
What this measures

Observed rate · %
Dispatch dates met

Shipments dispatched by the confirmed promised date ÷ completed shipments with known actual and promised dates.
Your reports start empty. Figures reflect observed work in the selected period; missing records are not treated as measured zeroes. Current jobs, schedules and stock stay in your working files and tasks. You and your agent can adapt the dashboard as your business changes.
Keep the tools that already work
Specialised in your trade. Open to your next idea.
Your AI agent starts with the details of your business already in mind. The three workflows are starting points. Ask it for help with another task in the same conversation.
An AI agent prepared for your business
The starting instructions, intake questions and working rules already match laser cutting job shops. Add your service list and one example of your tone when you are ready.
Give your agent the whole job
Give your agent an outcome, the access it needs and your budget. It handles routine decisions and follows through in your connected tools, asking when a missing business decision needs you. Set or change your own boundaries whenever you want.
Ask beyond the starting workflows
Analyse quote turnaround, compare material suppliers or prepare repeat-order pricing from your history. Give your agent another task in plain language. What it can carry out depends on the tools you connect and the access you choose.

Before you begin
Questions from the workbench.
Does it replace our nesting or CAM software?
It coordinates their outputs with your RFQs, suppliers and customers. Machine-ready files and verified nesting come from the tools already used by your shop.
Is this only for the three tasks shown?
No. This is an AI agent specialised for laser cutting job shops, with three prepared workflows to get you started. You can ask for writing, research, planning, analysis or another task in the same chat. It can make routine decisions and carry the work through using available tools. You set its boundaries; it asks when a real business decision or missing access needs you.
What happens after I subscribe?
After payment, we prepare your AI agent for laser cutting job shops, its workflows and your rfq-to-dispatch sheet dashboard. Your regular Agent Teams chat opens when setup is ready. Files, Tasks, settings and billing work the same as for other customers. Reports start empty and count actual reported work; the examples above are illustrative.
Do I need to connect email or messaging?
No. Prepare your first brief and draft here. Connect external channels later when you want the specialist to work there.
Does this replace my existing business software?
Use it alongside your current tools for preparing work and organising jobs. Live stock, availability, sending and payment records require a verified connection or your own confirmation.
