Drop a part, or pick from your library
STEP for 3D parts, DXF for flat ones. Drag and drop a file, reopen one of your saved parts, or start fresh in the 2D or 3D designer — no CAD seat required.
For sheet metal job shops
Quote a sheet metal part in 30 seconds.
Partero turns your shop's pricing know-how into instant, accurate quotes from a STEP file — so estimators stop spending 20 minutes per part and customers stop waiting days for a number.
The whole journey — click a step to see what happens there.
Geometry, automatically read
Partero pulls bend lines, cuts, holes, and weight straight from the file. No manual measuring, no spreadsheet copy-paste — the configure view shows exactly what the engine found.
Every euro, explained
Materials, cutting, bending, quantity breaks — every cost driver runs through your own tables. The breakdown shows the customer exactly where the number comes from, line by line.
Branded PDF, ready to send
A complete quote with your logo, contact block, terms, and the full line-item breakdown. Mailed direct from the app or downloaded for your own workflow.
Quote becomes order, tracked end-to-end
Accepted quotes flow into an order with a live timeline: placed → confirmed → in production → shipped → completed. Every status change is audited.
Quoting sheet metal eats your week.
- Manual cost calculation: material + cutting + bending + setup, per part, every time.
- Estimators answer the same questions twice — once for the quote, once when the customer asks for changes.
- Spreadsheets walk out the door when an estimator leaves.
- Customers wait two days for a quote that should take two minutes.
A quoting platform built around how sheet metal shops actually price.
STEP files in, costs out
Upload a STEP file. Partero analyses geometry, bends, cuts, and weight, and applies your pricing rules — fully automated.
Your pricing, not ours
Cutting rates, bending setups, material markups, quantity breaks — all admin-configurable. No hidden formulas.
Customer self-service
Optional customer portal so OEMs can upload parts and get an instant quote inside the price bands you set.
Send + track quotes
Generate a branded PDF, email it directly, and see when the customer opens it. Audit trail per send.
Quote → order
When a customer accepts, the quote becomes an order with status tracking — placed, confirmed, in production, shipped.
Pricing that mirrors your shop floor
Every cost driver in sheet metal gets its own configurable table — no hidden formulas.
Materials catalogue
Per-kg prices, thicknesses, surcharges.
Cutting speeds
Speed lookup by material × thickness × tool.
Bending setups
Setup time per tool, radius, angle.
Quantity breaks
Discount curves per material or globally.
Part designers built in
Skip CAD when you don't need it — parametric 2D for sheet basics, full 3D for everything else.
2D parametric designer
Rectangles, holes, notches, bend lines — driven by dimensions you type.
3D part designer
Full 3D modelling and visualisation, with the same pricing engine downstream.
From quote to delivery, tracked
Every line item, every status change, every send — recorded.
Quote breakdown
Per-part costs, material vs. labour, margins (for shop users).
Order timeline
Placed → confirmed → in production → shipped → completed. Audited.
Activity log
Who changed what, when. Full forensics on every quote and order.

Frequently asked
How accurate is the auto-quote?
Partero uses your own pricing tables — so the accuracy is the accuracy of your tables. Most shops find they need to tune cutting rates and bending setups in the first week, then the numbers match their old manual quotes within a few percent.
Which CAD formats do you support?
STEP (AP203 / AP214) for 3D parts and DXF for flat parts. IGES is on the roadmap.
Where does my data live?
European servers, single-tenant per shop. We never look at customer parts or use them to train anything.
Can I run Partero on my own server?
Yes — Partero ships as a Docker image. Self-hosted licenses available on request.
When will Partero be generally available?
We're in private preview with a handful of design partners. Reach out to join the waitlist.
