# PipeGenius

> From quote to order — powered by your own data. Built for manufacturing sales teams.

PipeGenius is a B2B SaaS platform built for technical sales teams in manufacturing — specifically Mittelstand companies across industries including plastics, metal, wood, textiles, contract manufacturing, technical trade, and component supply. Any manufacturer with complex pricing, individual customer agreements, and a technical sales team.

It is not a CRM, not an ERP, and not a generic AI tool. It is a purpose-built sales platform for manufacturing sales workflows.

## What PipeGenius does

- **Price Intelligence**: Shows sales people what their own company has invoiced for comparable products — drawn from their own historical order data, not external market sources. Helps them price confidently before sending a quote, not after losing an order.
- **Offer Management**: Template-based quote creation directly from Microsoft Outlook. Quotes are linked to customers, products, and prices automatically and land on the pipeline without manual entry.
- **Pipeline Management**: Personal pipeline tracking with automatic AT RISK flagging when quotes go quiet too long. Built to work alongside Outlook, not replace it.
- **Project Tracking**: Tracks projects through manufacturing stages (sample inspection, color sampling, pilot production etc.) with Outlook Add-in integration for one-click documentation.
- **Know Your Customer**: Customer profiles built automatically from sales activity — order history, price history, last contact, buying patterns, 360° view of every customer and supplier.
- **Sales Analytics**: Sales performance dashboards and loss pattern analysis to identify why orders are lost and what to adjust.

## Who it is for

- Sales people and sales managers in manufacturing companies
- Mittelstand companies (SMEs) in the DACH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland)
- Industries: plastics, metal, wood, textiles, contract manufacturing, technical trade, component manufacturing, job-shop manufacturing — any Mittelstand manufacturer with complex pricing and a technical sales team

## What makes it different

- Built by people who worked in manufacturing sales — not by software engineers solving a theoretical problem
- Works inside Microsoft Outlook via an Add-in — no new tool to adopt for daily quoting
- No external AI — own algorithms, no data sent outside
- Fully built and hosted in Germany — GDPR compliant, data sovereignty guaranteed
- Not a CRM: does not manage contacts or communication broadly — focused on the sales workflow around quoting, pricing, pipeline, project tracking, and a 360° view of every customer and supplier including order history, price history, buying patterns, and loss analysis
