ONLINE QUOTATION MAKER FOR EXPORTERS
AI Quote Builder: the online quotation maker for exporters
Turn a buyer enquiry into a quotation and proforma invoice, with the HS code for your product, FOB or CIF price, and RoDTEP and duty drawback rates. Every inquiry starts the same way: a spreadsheet, a calculator, a government PDF to find your RoDTEP rate, and a guess at freight. Miss an incentive and you leave margin on the table. Skip an FTA saving and a competitor looks cheaper than you.
Quote Builder
AIHow it works
- 1
Paste the inquiry
Drop in a WhatsApp message, an email or your own notes in Hindi or Hinglish. The AI pulls out product, quantity, destination, Incoterm and delivery.
- 2
Confirm the HS code
See suggested HS codes with descriptions and choose the right one. Nothing is priced until you confirm.
- 3
See receivables and FTA benefits
RoDTEP rates and duty drawback rates are shown separately as receivables. Where an Indian FTA lowers your buyer's import duty, it's flagged for your pitch.
- 4
Build the costing
Build an FOB, CIF or EXW price from product, packing, inland haulage, port and CHA charges, estimated freight and insurance, converted to your buyer's currency.
- 5
Send the invoice
Set your margin privately, apply your template and generate a proforma invoice PDF. Every quote is saved for next time.
QUOTE BUILDER IN DETAIL
Inside your cost sheet
Every cost line, structured for the Incoterm you quote. Receivables are tracked separately, so you always see your true margin.
- Incoterms® 2020 aware: FOB, CIF or EXW price, plus FCA, CFR and more.
- Quote in USD, EUR, AED or GBP, with exchange rates applied automatically.
- Private margin control: your buyer never sees your costs, margin or receivables.

AI EMAIL WRITER · HINDI TO ENGLISH
AI Trade Correspondent: the email writer for exporters
Write in Hindi or Hinglish and get a polished English email or WhatsApp reply for your buyer. A buyer messages at 11 pm about a delayed shipment. You know the answer, but writing it in professional English means drafting, deleting and second-guessing, so the reply waits until morning. In export, the supplier who replies fastest and most professionally often wins the order.

Export basics
A proforma invoice is a quotation in invoice format that you send to a buyer before shipment. It lists the product, quantity, price, Incoterm, payment terms and validity. Buyers often use it to arrange payment, an advance or an import licence. It is not a tax invoice.
FOB (Free on Board) price covers your product plus every cost until the goods are loaded on the ship at the Indian port: packing, inland transport, export customs clearance and port charges. Freight and insurance after that are the buyer's cost. A CIF price adds freight and insurance up to the destination port.
RoDTEP (Remission of Duties and Taxes on Exported Products) gives back embedded duties and taxes that are not refunded under any other scheme. The rate is a percentage of your FOB value, set by HS code in DGFT's Appendix 4R, and is credited as an electronic duty credit.
Duty drawback refunds customs duties paid on inputs used to make your exported goods. Most exporters claim the All Industry Rate set by CBIC for their product, calculated on FOB value and processed with the shipping bill.
An HS (Harmonized System) code is the international product code used by customs. Indian exports use an 8-digit ITC-HS code (for GST you may know it as the HSN code). It decides which duties and export incentives, such as RoDTEP and drawback, apply to your product, so getting it right matters.
