How It Works
Keep getting RFQs by email the way you do now. Tidal reads every line, matches it to your catalogue, applies your prices and margins, and hands you a quote to check and send, usually in under 30 minutes.
Step 01
A customer sends an RFQ to your inbox, often 800+ unstructured line items, attachments in every format imaginable. Tidal reads it the moment it lands, around the clock.
Step 02
Tidal's AI extracts every line item, quantity, and specification, including your own catalogue codes, even from messy, inconsistent formats that would take a human hours to interpret.
Step 03
Live vendor pricing is pulled and applied against your master catalogue. Your margin rules are applied automatically, and your team reviews the quote before it goes out.
Step 04
A professional, margin protected quote lands in your customer's inbox in under 30 minutes. Done by hand, the same quote often takes a day or more.
