GLA GFX

A professional pricing engine, quote system, and CRM for print businesses — accurate margins, polished quotes, and full pipeline visibility with zero infrastructure cost.

The Challenge

Print pricing is deceptively complex. A single quote depends on paper type, weight, ink costs, printer capabilities, imposition layouts, setup fees, markup strategy, and VAT — variables that most print shops manage through spreadsheets, gut feel, or outdated software. Quoting errors eat directly into margins. Manual follow-ups fall through the cracks. Most off-the-shelf solutions demand monthly subscriptions, cloud accounts, and onboarding overhead that small print businesses neither need nor want.

Our Solution

We built a self-contained Next.js application that puts the entire quoting workflow into a single interface. The pricing engine factors in paper-to-printer compatibility, imposition mathematics, tiered ink costs by quality level, configurable markup per product type, and VAT breakdowns — then surfaces it all as a clean, guided calculation flow. Quotes are assembled line by line, delivered as professionally formatted HTML emails, and tracked through a full sales pipeline with deposit handling and conversion analytics. Everything persists locally via Zustand with localStorage — no server costs, no login screens, no data privacy concerns. Ships with real paper stocks, real printers, and real product categories pre-configured.
