Without PlotonIQ

With PlotonIQ
  • LED modules and power supply as standard line items
  • Three trades in one single calculation
  • Illuminated sign quoted in 5 minutes

CHALLENGES

01

Material + electronics + installation

Multiple trades combined. Plus planning permission procedures

02

LED module calculations

Unit count, power draw, power supply — everything has to be right

03

Keep permits in view

Many municipalities require a building permit for illuminated signage above a certain size. Costs and effort are often forgotten in quotes. Keep a dedicated line item and you have permit work planned — you enter the amount yourself.

PLOTONIQ SOLVES THIS

Three trades — one click

"Illuminated letters HOTEL, 50cm high, powder-coated aluminium profile RAL 9016, opal acrylic front, warm white LED, installation on brick facade at 8m height." The AI calculates in under 2 minutes: letter housings, LED modules, power supply / transformer, electrics and crane installation.

  • All three trades (metal, electrical, installation) in one calculation
  • LED modules as a standard line item per letter
  • Power supply / transformer as a standard line item on the quote
  • Crane costs by height: cherry picker or mobile crane

How it works

01

Describe

Lettering, letter height, material, light color, mounting height and substrate. The AI asks for clarification if needed.

02

AI calculates

Metalwork, LED modules, power supply, electrical and installation — all in one calculation with price justification.

03

Offer variants

Optional: The AI creates variants (e.g. channel letters vs. lightbox) with price comparison for the customer.

04

Quote + Production

Quote to the customer, production order to the workshop — including LED order list and installation plan.
