About

CostRatesAdvisor is the most robust budgeted hourly rates and cost analysis software available to the printing and packaging industry. It analyzes your costs and pinpoints the break-even out-of-pocket cost of your production equipment and services. Enabling you to produce more accurate estimates, make better pricing decisions, increase sales, and grow profits. CostRatesAdvisor benchmarks your labor, factory, and overhead costs and rates against other printing companies and the industry. Find out why your prices may be higher than the competition on certain quotes. Is it your factory costs or your overhead costs that are driving up prices? Maybe your labor costs are too high? It could be specific products or services you provide.

About

Estima8 is the AI assistant for print shops. It turns every print enquiry into a ready to send quote, in minutes. Quoting is the slowest step in most print shops. A request lands, it waits, someone digs through pricing and specs, and by the time the quote goes out the customer has often already moved on. Estima8 closes that gap. It reads the enquiry the way a seasoned CSR would, pulls accurate pricing straight from the systems you already run, including Print Smith Vision, and builds the estimate and digital proof. Your team reviews and approves before anything reaches the customer, so you get the speed of automation with your people always in control. No new system to learn. No migration. No disruption. Estima8 works inside how your shop already quotes, just faster. That means your best people spend less time on data entry and more time winning and keeping customers. If quoting speed is costing you jobs, we would love to show you a demo.
