Document Matrix
Move faster, from quotes to clarity
Let AI handle the heavy lifting so your team can focus on judgement calls. Quotes are consolidated into a clean side by side view, key scope or price discrepancies are flagged for review, and clarification lists are drafted to speed up responses.
Risk is increased big time if you don't have the control and traceability over the documents you send. You send out a link to download documents and you don’t have any status updates... If that link goes dead, “What did this guy get?!“, you’d say - you can be in big trouble.
