What is StartProto?

StartProto seamlessly integrates with your existing workflows, enhancing the entire manufacturing process from initial quotes to cash flow management. Our software is crafted to be both lightweight and robust, facilitating the modernization of your operations while streamlining various processes. For job shops, accurately assessing the production costs of parts or services is crucial for staying competitive and ensuring profitability. Traditional methods of quoting frequently miss essential components such as run time, setup time, and material expenses, which can lead to miscalculations that may result in significant financial losses. Our groundbreaking solution enables job shops to account for all these critical factors in their quoting procedures. By including run time, setup time, and material costs, manufacturers can produce more accurate quotes, mitigating risks of underbidding or overcharging. This heightened accuracy not only aids in sustaining competitiveness in the market but also builds customer trust through transparent and fair pricing strategies. Moreover, StartProto empowers your business to adapt and excel in the dynamic landscape of manufacturing, ensuring long-term success.
