Real-life caseSeptember 2026
Manufacturer of components for power grids (anonymous)
A manufacturer of components for power grids receives around 200 quote requests a month, by email. Its sales team handles them by hand.
A generative AI tool reads the emails, analyses the attachments, finds the products, calculates the price and drafts the quote. A standard quote now takes 10 minutes instead of 30. More than half of the requests (55%) no longer need any manual work.
Measured accuracy is 96% on sorting emails and 90% on quotes. This case was published in September 2026 by the provider that ran the project; the client remains anonymous.
