Forgepoint

AI assistant automating RFQ-to-quote process

Overview

Forgepoint builds AI coworkers for the manufacturing back office. Its first product, Frank, is an AI inside sales representative that handles the RFQ-to-quote process end to end, working with reps, estimators, and engineers. Frank is deployed at hundreds of shops nationwide and has helped cut time-to-quote by up to 90%. Unlike general software vendors, Forgepoint focuses on creating AI colleagues that automate back-office workflows in the manufacturing quoting process, delivering practical, measurable results in real-world shops. The company's goal is to give American manufacturers an edge by putting the best technology in their hands, enabling faster, more accurate quotes and smoother collaboration across teams.
