Tooling CPQ for high-frequency RFQs
Kabaido helps precision tooling suppliers and manufacturers turn incoming requests into consistent quotes fast.
Structure the RFQ, match the right product or service variant, apply your pricing rules, and generate a quote that’s ready to send or hand off into internal workflows.
STRUCTURED RFQ INTAKE
Standardise tooling RFQs across categories
Tooling requests vary wildly: geometry, materials, coatings, tooth forms, profiles, bonds, grinds, tolerances, quantities, and lead times.
Kabaido brings your quotes into a single structured flow so your team can qualify faster, reduce clarification loops, and produce consistent outputs across carbide, saws, knives, and abrasives.
MATCH PRODUCTS
Match the right tooling from your catalog
Stop digging through PDFs and part tables. Kabaido structures the request and narrows to the correct product/service variant using filters and constraints so teams can respond faster with fewer clarifications.
CALCULATE PRICES
Instant pricing for complex tooling RFQs
Turn spec-heavy requests into consistent pricing using your own rules. Ideal for precision tooling where variants and “specials” are normal, not edge cases.
GENERATE QUOTES
Generate a quote that’s ready to send
Produce a clean, consistent quote output from the configured spec and pricing so sending a quote (or handing off to ERP/ops) becomes a single step instead of a document task.
PURPOSE-DRIVEN
Built for precision manufacturers
Precision tooling is high-frequency RFQs, endless variants, and pricing that lives in people’s heads.
Kabaido structures the request, applies your quoting logic, and generates consistent quotes. So your team can respond faster, protect margins and win more orders across every category.
WHY CHOOSE KABAIDO

Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to common questions about the tooling CPQ, how Kabaido works, what it supports and how fast you can get started.
Can Kabaido support approvals and permissions?
+
Yes. You can align quoting steps to your internal process—such as engineering review, margin checks, or management approval—so quotes are consistent and governed.
Can we start without integrating our ERP?
+
Yes. Many teams start standalone to standardise RFQ intake and quoting. When you’re ready, integrations can sync customers, items, costs, lead times, and order handoff.
Does Kabaido support custom and specials quoting?
+
Yes. It’s designed for high-variant tooling RFQs by capturing configurable parameters, applying rule-based pricing, and producing consistent outputs even when the item is not a standard SKU.
How does Kabaido handle attachments like drawings and spec sheets?
+
RFQs can include attachments, and the workflow can require key parameters alongside uploads so critical information isn’t trapped only in PDFs or email threads.
How does Kabaido reduce back-and-forth on RFQs?
+
It structures RFQ inputs into the parameters your team actually needs (dimensions, materials, options, lead time) and routes missing info early—so fewer clarification emails are required before pricing.
How does product matching work for tooling?
+
Kabaido narrows to the best-fit product or service variant using filters and constraints derived from the RFQ (e.g., size ranges, materials, geometry, profile, tolerance, bond/grit) to reduce manual searching.
Is Kabaido suitable for distributors as well as manufacturers?
+
Yes. Any business that needs fast, consistent tooling quotes—whether manufacturing, regrind/service, or distribution—can use Kabaido to standardise requests and quoting logic.
What can be captured in pricing logic?
+
Rules can cover base pricing, options/adders, service tiers, rush multipliers, minimum order values, quantity breaks, margin targets, and region/currency considerations—tailored to your workflow.
What does implementation typically involve?
+
Implementation usually focuses on defining the RFQ fields you need, mapping pricing rules, setting up product/service variants, and aligning quote output to your process. Integrations can be added later if required.
What is a tooling CPQ platform?
+
A tooling CPQ platform helps tooling suppliers and precision manufacturers standardise RFQ intake, apply pricing rules, match the correct product or service variant, and generate consistent quotes faster.
What outputs can quotes be generated into?
+
Quotes can be generated as structured line items and consistent quote packs suitable for email sending and internal approvals, and can be prepared for export or handoff into downstream workflows.
Who is Kabaido for?
+
Kabaido is built for precision tooling suppliers and service providers handling frequent RFQs across categories like carbide, saws, knives, and superabrasives—especially where many orders are custom or one-off.
