The Mercura Platform
Automate quoting end to end.
Mercura understands every request,
matches it to your catalog, and writes the quote into your ERP. Let your team answer every request in minutes.
Request Understanding
Turn any request into structured line items
Answer every request. Not just the ones you have time for.
Mercura turns emails, PDFs and tenders into structured line items and filters out everything that doesn’t belong in the quote.
01
Email request automation
Every request lands ready to quote
Forward your sales inbox once. From then on, every new request arrives in Mercura automatically, email text and attachments included.
No downloading, no uploading, no request forgotten in someone’s inbox.
02
Tender & spec reader
Every tender, in any format
GAEB file, PDF, scan, photo or plain email: Mercura reads them all and turns even tenders with hundreds of items into structured line items, complete with quantities and full item descriptions.
03
Relevance filtering
Focus on the line items you actually sell
Large tenders are full of items outside your range. Mercura filters them out up front, so your team prices what matters instead of scrolling past the rest.
01
AI catalog matching
Review matches instead of searching for them
Your team no longer searches the catalog item by item. Mercura proposes the right article and variant for every line item, including its long text, and learns from every correction.
02
Spec-compliance Check
Catch spec mismatches before your customer does
Mercura checks every match against the requirements in the tender text and flags deviations, so your quote holds up in the technical review.
03
Margin-aware prioritisation
When several products fit, offer the better margin
Many line items have more than one compliant answer. Mercura ranks them by your prices and margins, so your team picks the most profitable option without checking each one.
Real-world data
Your data doesn't need to be perfect.
Mercura is built for how distribution really works: messy emails, missing article numbers, every customer writing differently. No templates, no mapping projects.

ERP Automation
Straight into your ERP.
Out to every customer.
Handle around 50% more requests with the same team. Mercura writes the approved quote into your ERP and exports it as GAEB or PDF, in whatever format each customer needs.
01
SAP & ERP integration
The finished quote goes straight into your ERP
No more keying line items into SAP one by one. Mercura writes the approved quote into SAP, proALPHA, Diva or your ERP, complete with line items, prices and long texts.
02
GAEB & PDF output
One tender, in every customer’s format
The same priced tender often goes out to 6-10 customers. Mercura exports it as GAEB and PDF for each one, long texts included, so your team no longer reformats every file by hand.
03
Quote tracking
Every open quote in view
See at a glance which quotes are out, which are waiting on the customer and which need a follow-up, so fewer deals go quiet.

FAQ
Questions about tender automation.
Accuracy depends on your catalog and your requests, so we don’t rely on a generic benchmark. Instead, we test Mercura on your own bills of quantities, and you see within days how accurately it performs in your environment.
No upfront training is needed. Mercura starts with your existing product data, descriptions and past quotes, and improves with every confirmation and correction from your team.
Only from your own team. Confirmations and corrections take effect immediately in the bill of quantities you’re working on and apply to all future requests.
Your product master data with short and long descriptions, plus a handful of real bills of quantities. Incomplete data is no problem: you don’t need a fully maintained PIM, because Mercura also reads datasheets, technical documentation and catalog text.
Mercura sends matched products, quantities and units straight to your ERP via API, GAEB or other formats. Pricing and calculation stay in your existing system, so your commercial logic remains untouched.
No. Each customer works in a separate tenant environment. Your data, corrections and learned rules are never shared with other customers, including competitors, and this is contractually guaranteed.
Usually within two working days. A technical test with your own product data and real requests shows results before any ERP integration is needed, so IT effort stays low at the start.
