Upload your files, resolve sourcing issues, get design feedback, and place a production-ready order without talking to a salesperson. MacroFab ships real boards, fast.
Most EMS quoting workflows start with a form: dozens of fields, dropdown menus, and a wait for someone to call you back. MacroFab's FabIQ platform starts with a file upload and ends with a ready-to-order quote.
Native EDA project files, ODB++, Gerbers, BOM spreadsheets in Excel or CSV, PDF stackup specs — FabIQ parses all of them and automatically extracts the information needed for accurate pricing. No re-entry, no guesswork, no back-and-forth.
Component availability, pricing, and lead times change every day. FabIQ connects your BOM to live distributor data so you always have an accurate picture of what your build actually costs — at the moment you need it.
When a part is out of stock or at-risk, FabIQ surfaces form-fit-function alternatives with full spec comparisons so you can make a confident substitution decision without leaving the platform. Beyond simple availability, FabIQ shows you full tariff impact by component and labor cost contribution at volume — the information procurement needs, delivered automatically alongside engineering's design.
Every respin costs time and money. FabIQ's automated DRC and DFM engine analyzes your design files the moment they're uploaded, surfacing production-blocking issues and cost-driving inefficiencies before you place an order.
This isn't a generic rules check. FabIQ understands the specific manufacturing process your board will go through and flags issues in that context — clearances, trace widths, pad geometries, assembly-facing DFM rules, and more. Identified issues are annotated directly on your board view so your team can navigate and resolve them without switching tools.
Once an order is placed, visibility shouldn't disappear. MacroFab's platform tracks every stage of your build — from design review and component procurement through manufacturing, test, and shipment — with real-time status updates throughout.
No more 'checking in' emails to your rep. Your order status, quality milestones, and estimated delivery are surfaced in the platform the moment they update. Your team — engineering, ops, and procurement — all have the same picture.
Hardware programs run multiple revisions. MacroFab logs every change to a design — what changed, who made it, and when — with the context needed to understand why. Nothing gets lost between prototype and production.
Compare any two orders of the same PCB side by side: component changes, quantity deltas, spec modifications, sourcing decisions. Engineering gets a clear audit trail. Procurement gets the full picture of cost drivers across revisions. And when something breaks in production, your team can trace it back to the exact change that introduced it.
MacroFab shows you pricing at every volume — not just the quantity you're ordering today. Whether you're planning a production ramp or modeling cost at scale, the platform surfaces per-unit cost curves, supply chain risk by volume, and sourcing sensitivity as a first-class view alongside your quote.
Collaboration between engineering and procurement is built in. Share quotes, annotate sourcing decisions, and hand off production-ready specs without leaving the platform. One tool from your first prototype to your thousandth production run — no contracts, no commitments, just capacity on demand.
Upload your BOM and Gerbers or design files and get a detailed, itemized quote ready to order.
