Our mission
Focus on what matters most: your customers and their needs. Leave the admin to Quotiv. Too much of the working day goes on building quotes, checking prices and chasing paperwork—time that belongs in front of the people actually buying.
We built Quotiv because the quote kept costing us the deal
Two salespeople, years of watching ready-to-buy customers wait on a number, and the quoting software we built to fix it. Formerly QuoteMate.
Our approach
Fast and right, not fast or right. Quotiv does the assembly—catalog, pricing rules, discounts, tax, approvals—so a quote can go out in minutes without you hoping the numbers hold. AI where it earns its place, and nowhere it puts your pricing at risk.
Our focus
The people who actually send the quotes. One person on a showroom floor, or a team running dozens of open deals at once—same problem, different scale. We start on Shopify and grow with you as the quoting gets harder.
Our story
It started on a showroom floor
Quotiv wasn't designed in a strategy deck. It came out of years of standing in front of customers who were ready to buy—and making them wait. Both of us.
We met in 2019 selling spas in Auckland. Same floor, same weekends. Big ticket, highly configurable, and every customer finished with the same question: what’s it going to cost me, all in?
Answering it meant walking away from them. Check the stock in the system. Then the hard part—delivery, a number that swung wildly depending on how hard the spa was to get into its final position. A tight gate, a flight of steps, sometimes a crane. A couple of hours on a good day. A couple of days on a bad one.
By then the deal was already won. Every question answered, every objection handled, the customer comfortable in every way but one—and the one thing left was the number we were making them wait for. If a competitor had a similar spa at a similar price and got their quote out first, we were in real trouble.
Weekends were worse. Three or four people on the floor at once, all wanting numbers, and we couldn’t finish them all in time. One or two would leave without giving us their details, and we’d never hear from them again. You don’t even get to lose those deals properly.
Dylan left for enterprise software after university and brought Sahil with him. Bigger deals, longer chains, the same problem in a better suit. We started as account managers on separate patches, then Dylan moved into technical sales—so we ended up working the same prospects from two sides, one on the commercial shape of the deal, one on whether it would actually work.
Large accounts had ops teams and CPQ tools to hide the problem, plus layers of approval on every discount. The distance from the buyer made it worse: the customer asks the reseller, the reseller asks the distributor, the distributor asks the vendor—and the price makes the whole trip back down again. Four hops for an opening number, then the same trip at every round of negotiation.
Dylan missed President’s Club because of it. A deal that came down to the final days of the quarter, a customer ready to sign, and one person in the chain out of office. He wasn’t outsold. He was stuck in a broken, antiquated process.
So we built Quotiv. Describe the deal in plain English and it matches your catalog, applies your pricing rules and approvals, and sends a professional, buyer-ready quote—acceptance link included—while the deal is still warm.
It starts on the Shopify App Store. Because in a market this competitive, the quote isn’t paperwork—it’s the last thing standing between yes and gone.

What we learned
Quoting at both ends of the spectrum
Between us we've quoted at both extremes—deals that take months to decide and deals that are won in an afternoon. What a quote has to do changes completely between them.
High value, slow cycle
When someone is spending serious money and taking weeks to decide, the quote is the product until the product arrives. It gets forwarded, compared line by line, and read by people you will never meet. Get a number wrong and you either absorb it or go back and ask for more—and both cost you the trust you just spent weeks earning. Here a quote has to be accurate, complete, and good enough to be judged on.
Fast cycle, short window
At the other end the buyer is deciding now, and talking to your competitors while they wait. Nobody is comparing craftsmanship—they are comparing who answered. The first accurate quote in the inbox often takes it, not because it is the cheapest, but because it is the only one there while they still care.
Both ends punish the same two things: a quote that takes too long, and a quote that gets it wrong. One end makes you pay for the mistake, the other makes you pay for the delay. Everything in Quotiv exists so you never have to pick between fast and right.
The name
Quotiv, said KWOH-tiv
Short, ours, and still obviously about quotes.
We launched as QuoteMate and changed the name in August 2026. Same product, same team, same company—a name we could actually own. Links to the old domain still work and always will.
Quotiv is made by QUOTIV LIMITED, a New Zealand company—company number 9444423, NZBN 9429053815293.
