Modern manufacturing is more complex than ever. As customers demand faster turnaround, more customization, and seamless digital experiences, manufacturers are under growing pressure to manage complex product configurations with speed, precision, and efficiency. Yet, most existing configurator software for manufacturing is outdated. It relies on rigid rule-based logic, is disconnected from core business systems, and requires constant engineering support to keep up with changing catalogs and constraints.
We believe there’s a better way. Product configurators can significantly enhance customer experience by providing personalized options, which in turn fosters customer loyalty.
With advancements in Generative AI and intelligent AI agents, manufacturers now have the opportunity to reimagine how product configuration works – from a static, manual task to a dynamic, conversational experience. And we can help you make it real.
Through our AI Kickstarter Framework, we partner with manufacturing companies to design and build custom AI configurator software for manufacturing from the ground up – tailored to your product logic, rules, systems, and business goals. This approach not only streamlines the customization process but also improves overall customer satisfaction. It’s not a plug-and-play product. It’s a strategic co-creation journey to build a transformative solution unique to your operations.
Who’s it for:
- Manufacturers offering modular or configurable products across SKUs
- OEMs managing large, complex catalogs with technical dependencies
- Sales engineers and dealers who need fast, accurate quoting and configuration tools
- Industrial equipment producers with regional or technical variations
- Engineering teams overwhelmed by manual validation and spec-checking
Challenges with traditional product configurator software for manufacturing
Conventional configurator software for manufacturing wasn’t built for the speed, complexity, or customization demands of the modern manufacturing process. Many companies are stuck with tools that:
- Use rigid logic trees that can’t evolve with new product options
- Require manual upkeep by engineers just to stay current
- Lack integration with enterprise resource planning (ERP), PLM, or inventory systems – leading to errors
- Lack integration with other business systems, which is crucial for maintaining cohesive workflows and ensuring efficient production and delivery processes
- Provide poor user experience, especially for sales teams or dealers
- Struggle to scale across languages, geographies, or product lines.
Key Benefits of AI Configurator Software for Customer Preferences
When built with AI at the core, your configurator becomes an intelligent assistant – removing friction, improving accuracy, and enabling your teams to move faster.
- Natural-language configuration: Users describe what they need; AI turns it into a compliant, validated configuration.
- Always current: RAG ensures the system pulls live specs, logic, and documentation – no outdated rules.
- Error-free outputs: Real-time validation ensures every configuration complies with your technical and commercial rules, ensuring the final product meets customer expectations.
- ERP and PLM ready: Outputs are structured and formatted for immediate use in production and planning systems, and seamlessly integrate with e-commerce platforms.
- Faster quote-to-order cycles: Cut pre-sales engineering time by up to 70% with automated configuration and quote generation. Dynamic pricing facilitates seamless transactions by allowing real-time pricing adjustments based on user selections.
- Built to scale: A single AI engine can support multiple product lines, languages, and regional rules.
What we can build together
Our custom-built AI configurators are intelligent, intuitive, and production-ready product configurator software. Built using our AI Kickstarter Framework, your solution can include:
- Conversational Configuration Interface: Let users describe what they need in natural language – AI handles the complexity behind the scenes.
- RAG-Powered Intelligence: Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pulls real-time specs, rules, and documentation into every decision.
- Real-Time Feasibility & Validation: Ensure every configuration is technically valid, manufacturable, and pricing-compliant.
- Automated Quote & BOM Generation: Instantly generate quotes, Bills of Materials, and documentation – reducing back-and-forth.
- Enhance product customization by tailoring products to meet individual customer preferences.
- ERP, CRM, PLM Integration: Seamlessly integrate with your internal systems to automate the flow from quote to production process.
- Multilingual, Region-Aware Logic: Support dealers and teams across geographies with localized logic and language support.
- Admin-Friendly Configuration Updates: Extend or adjust rules using plain-language inputs – no hard coding required.
How we work – the AI Kickstarter approach
We start small, iterate fast, and scale with confidence.
- 30-Day Proof of Concept (PoC): We identify a high-impact area – one product line, customer segment, or sales workflow – and build a working PoC to validate value quickly.
- Tailored Development: Using the learnings from the PoC, we collaboratively define and build a full-scale configurator aligned with your products and systems.
- Modular, Scalable Architecture: Built for integration, maintainability, and future expansion – whether for new product lines, global markets, or advanced quoting needs.
Starting from $15,000, our base PoC includes:
- Custom configuration logic based on your product data
- Integration with ERP/CRM/PLM systems
- Secure deployment (cloud or on-prem)
- Optional add-ons: multi-language, visualization, dealer chatbots, advanced quote builders.
