How to Get a Quote at Xometry

1. Upload CAD files: Start by uploading one or multiple CAD files. Our advanced algorithms will analyze each model’s geometry, delivering instant price estimates and available lead times.

2. Edit specifications: To refine your quote, click ‘Edit Specifications.’ You can adjust the process, material, quantity, finishing, and other parameters, with the price updating automatically based on your changes.

3. Add custom details: You can select the required tolerances and, if necessary, specify the number of threads and tapped holes. In this case, you’ll need to upload an additional drawing. You can also enter any additional project requirements for the engineers and manufacturers in the provided text field. Once you’ve finished editing the part specifications, return to the quote page to add more parts if needed.

4. Certifications & requirements: You can also specify the required certifications. When your quote is finalized, proceed to checkout.

5. Finalize & checkout: If you haven’t already added your shipping address, you can do so to calculate the shipping costs. Proceed to payment using a variety of methods, including PayPal, bank card, proforma invoice, or other country-specific options.

Your order is now being processed, and production will begin shortly.

Otherwise, enter your project requirements in the provided text field. You can use our template or type your specifications from scratch.

3. Schedule shipments: For scheduled shipments, specify your desired schedule.

4. Confirm production details: When you’re ready, click ‘Review & Confirm’ to double-check your files and entered information.

5. Request quote: Proceed by clicking the “Request Quote” button. Within 24-48 hours, our pricing engineers will prepare a comprehensive quote tailored to your project specifications. The quote will be organized into a clear part-by-part interface.

You can then place your order as easily as with an instant AI-generated quote.

1. Create a target price order: Start by creating a new target price order. Upload your designs, set all parameters, including materials, quantities, and advanced features. Then, set your desired price per unit—this is what sets Target Price Orders apart from other quoting options, giving you direct control over your costs.

2. Order process: The order process is similar to other quoting options. If you choose to pay with a credit card, the target amount will be preauthorized, meaning it will be held on your card temporarily.

3. Order review: Once your order is placed, our auditing team will review it and confirm within 72 hours. If the order is confirmed, the preauthorized amount will be charged to your card. If your target price doesn’t align with current market conditions, we’ll provide the best possible counter-offer. Should you decide not to accept the counter-offer and cancel the order, the pre-authorized amount will be promptly returned to your account.
