# The AI Automatic Estimator Built for Machine Shops

Get **fully itemized manufacturing quotes directly from a 2D PDF print in under 2 minutes.** Zenith's computer vision reads the geometry, material, and tolerances, then prices the job automatically. Built for CNC, job shops, and tool & die.

## First 5 prints free.

No accounts, no portals, no software to learn.

[FORWARD YOUR PDF BLUEPRINT TO quotes@zenithquoting.com](mailto:quotes@zenithquoting.com?subject=Blueprint%20Quote%20Request)

**Same part, same price, every single time.** Eliminate estimation variance and bid with absolute machine consistency.

**Shop Calibration:** reply to any quote with your real shop rate and typical setup times, and every future quote is priced to your floor, not a generic average. The more prints you run, the sharper your numbers get.

**No portals. No software downloads. No training curves.** Just forward the print, and your completed quote routes straight back to your inbox while your machines are still running.

### ZENITH CORE CAPABILITIES // LIVE SYSTEM STATUS ⚡

#### PPAP Generation

BETAPPAP data (characteristics and BOM) is in beta. Auto-ballooned drawings are in development.

- Characteristics list: every dimension, thread, and finish keyed to a balloon number with nominal and tolerance
**(live)** - Bill of Materials extraction with per-material stock roll-up
**(live)** - AS9102-style characteristic tables: nominal, +/− tolerance, source
**(live)** - Auto-ballooned drawings: numbered bubbles overlaid on each dimension
**(in development)**

#### Advanced Sheet Metal Quoting & AI Takeoff

BETA · VALIDATED ON VECTOR FLAT-PATTERNS- Flat pattern bounding envelope extraction (Length x Width) and material gauge thickness verification
- Automated linear perimeter inch calculation for high-accuracy laser/plasma cutting cycle times
- Intelligent bend line and flange counting mapped directly to isometric/folded profile views
- Dual-pass auditing pipeline with automated self-correction for high-accuracy geometric feature extraction

#### Sovereign Infrastructure (On-Prem Core)

IN DEVELOPMENT · Q4 2026 · JOIN THE WAITLIST- Fully isolated on-premise deployment, so prints never leave your network
- Strict process isolation with rebuilt-from-primitives vector translation
- Air-gap compatible; zero external API dependency at runtime
- Hash-chained, tamper-evident audit log on dedicated hardware
- Dedicated onboarding & support engineer

**PILOT PHASE:** We are strictly limiting our initial rollout to
**5 manufacturing shops** to ensure high-touch deployment. **Only 2 development slots
remain** for this cohort. To apply for a slot, forward your prints directly to
