An order desk for owners who quote between jobs.
Stubie is the order desk for South African businesses that quote by email — built and run by LinxAI in Krugersdorp, an approved Meta Tech Provider.
The best quoter in the business is also the busiest person in it.
In thousands of small workshops, print shops and kitchens, the owner is the order desk. Enquiries arrive on a personal WhatsApp number all day; quotes get typed at night; deposits get chased when there’s a gap. The work is invisible until it slips: a quote that went out two days late, a job that started before the money reflected.
Stubie takes over that desk without changing how customers behave. They email the same address as before, but now every enquiry becomes a priced draft waiting for the owner’s yes, every accepted quote gets a payment reference, and every unpaid one gets a polite nudge. The owner keeps the judgement; Stubie does the typing and the chasing.
The rules we build by are short: nothing sends without approval, prices come from your list or wait for you, and your money goes to your account. Everything else follows from those three.
How we work
The owner stays in charge
Every quote waits for your approval by default. Automatic sending is something you switch on later, within limits you set.
Local, in every detail
EFT and payment references, Afrikaans and English in one message, rand and VAT on every line, and POPIA by design.
Set up by people
We build your price list and templates with you, then run your first week alongside you. Software alone doesn't know your margins.
