Estimating and Quoting with AI: What's Helpful and What's Hype
Intermediate 3:45 pm - 4:30 pm
Artificial intelligence is everywhere, but for most machine shops, it can feel more like a buzzword than a practical tool. That's because much of the AI being marketed today wasn't built for custom part manufacturers, let alone the quoting and estimating processes that drive profitability in a shop. In this session presented by Paperless Parts, learn how to apply AI where it works: automating repetitive tasks, accelerating admin work and reducing bottlenecks — without sacrificing accuracy or security. Learn how top shops are using AI today, why there are no "magic bullets," and how to separate the marketing hype from what's real. Walk away with an action plan for practically adopting AI in your shop and get inspired by the latest technologies leveraging AI responsibly to make quoting fast, seamless and secure.
