How to generate a quote with artificial intelligence
An AI agent can build the quote with your prices and send it as a PDF instantly, right in the chat. Here is how it works and how to turn it on.
Quoting is often the bottleneck of the sale: the customer asks for prices, someone digs through the spreadsheet, builds the document by hand, and sends it… hours later. By then, many have already bought elsewhere. An AI agent connected to your catalog changes that: it builds the quote with your prices and delivers it as a PDF in seconds, inside the same conversation.
What "quoting with AI" means
It is not a chatbot that spits out text. It is an agent that knows your catalog (products, prices, stock) and, when the customer asks for a formal quote, gathers the products and quantities, calculates the total —with tax if it applies— and generates a PDF with your business branding. The customer downloads it right away; you keep the record to follow up.
How it works, step by step
- The customer asks about products and the agent answers with real prices from your catalog.
- When they ask for "a quote", the agent confirms products and quantities so nothing is wrong.
- It calculates subtotal, tax (if you enabled it) and total, and builds the PDF with your logo, number and validity.
- It delivers it in the chat (web or Telegram) to download, without leaving the conversation.
Why it pays off
You answer in seconds instead of hours, prices come out exact (not "from memory"), and every quote is saved for follow-up —who asked, for how much, and what stage it is in. Your team stops building documents by hand and focuses on closing.
Personalized with your brand
The quote carries your logo, your business name, the validity, your bank details, delivery times and notes. Everything is optional: whatever you do not add simply does not show. The result looks professional without you designing anything.
How to turn it on in Vendilo
In your dashboard you go to Quotes, enable the feature and fill in the issuer details (logo, validity, tax, etc.). From that moment, your agent can generate PDF quotes in web chat and Telegram, for both your team and your customers. It is included —unlimited— in every plan, including the free one.
Quoting fast and well is one of the things that moves the sale the most. Letting AI build the PDF for you turns an hours-long task into a seconds-long message.
