The PDF nobody reads
Four hundred pages of part numbers, downloaded once, never opened again. A buyer's question dies on page 212.
A manufacturer calls me in. Maybe a wholesaler, maybe a distributor. Same affliction every time: a dead catalog.
The affliction
It has a URL. It has a download button. It has product photos. What it doesn't have is a mouth.
Four hundred pages of part numbers, downloaded once, never opened again. A buyer's question dies on page 212.
A print catalog wearing a browser costume. Pretty page turns, zero answers, no way to ask for a price.
Optimized for crawlers, not people. It ranks. It just never talks back to the human who landed on it.
The paradox
0% of industrial buyers want an expert on the line.They won't pick up the phone to ask.

That silence is expensive. From every angle.
The cost of silence
0.0%
Up to 22.5% of revenue trapped in a catalog that can't talk back. The demand exists. The answer doesn't.
Revenue trapped in unanswered catalog demand
0%
Reps sell only 28% of their week. Up to 72% of your sales payroll goes to everything but selling — and repetitive catalog questions are a big slice of it.
Salesforce
0–0%
35% to 50% of deals go to whoever answers first. Answer slow and half your contested pipeline is up for grabs.

Automated RFQ Generated & Dispatched to Inside Sales
Preview Live QuoteA AWAKENING IN THE FIELD
A Midwest fastener distributor had lived with the same problem for years: 480 pages of spec sheets, tolerances, and wholesale pricing tiers — all locked in a PDF no buyer ever finished reading. Their inside sales team fielded the same five questions on repeat. Quotes took 48 hours. Reps spent Monday mornings catching up on Friday's missed inquiries.
ChatSKU ingested the catalog over a weekend. No data migration. No developer sprint. By day 9, a buyer in a different time zone submitted an RFQ at 2:14am — priced, tiered, and routed before anyone arrived at the office.
The catalog had always had the answer. It just didn't have a voice.
*Composite scenario drawn from common industrial distributor patterns. Real results begin when your catalog does.
Under the hood
Requests captured, priced, and routed — from first question to signed number.
Every conversation, quote, and lead visible. See what buyers actually ask for.
Your price book, your break points, applied correctly at 2am.
Contract pricing per account, approval chains where procurement demands them.
ERP, ecommerce, CRM. The catalog talks to your stack, not just your buyers.
Built for the messy reality of small- to medium-sized industrial B2B, not a generic Chat widget.
No replatforming. No data migration project. No six-month committee. Drop the line on your site, point us at the catalog you already have, and it starts answering.
Your IT team can deploy this in an afternoon. One line. No replatforming.

I don't sell software. I walk into warehouses, hear what your catalog cannot say, and teach it to speak revenue.

We are building two fronts at once: a dedicated internal sales team that sells ChatSKU into distributors and industrial brands, and a network of industrial sales partners who already have trusted relationships with manufacturers, MROs, OEMs, and distributors in our target market. If you know the buyers, know the channels, or know how industrial deals actually close, we want you.
Everything buyers, distributors, and manufacturers ask before waking their catalog.
Yes. Drop in raw product catalogs, fitment guides, installation guides, and CSV price matrices as-is. No reformatting, restructuring, or data migration project required — ChatSKU extracts structure from the documents you already have.
Yes. ChatSKU connects to the platforms and backends you already run — Shopify, Magento, BigCommerce, SAP, NetSuite, Salesforce, custom ERPs, and CRMs — so answers stay in sync with live stock, pricing, and customer records.
Yes. It respects your customer groups, volume breakpoints, tiered discounts, and multi-step approvals. Every quote and order follows your exact commercial rules, even when they differ from buyer to buyer.
Every request-for-quote is auto-tagged with product context, intent, and the exact clarification needed. It then routes to the right sales rep or engineer so responses are fast, accurate, and never lose detail.
Most catalogs are answering buyers within days. Drop the one-line embed on your site, point us at your existing catalog, and the spell starts working — no six-month committee required.
Nothing until ChatSKU wakes your catalog. Choose the performance plan and pay only when it generates quotes, orders, or leads; or lock in predictable costs with the subscription plan. Either way, you start with a free trial covering your first 3 orders, 6 quotes/leads, or 60 days.
I'm building toward the day product discovery and procurement is just a conversation. Toward the end of catalogs that can't answer your buyers. If yours is sitting silent right now, tell me where it lives and what shape it's in.
