Cord

Overview

Cord is a proposal, approval, and payment platform that brings the sales process together in a single interactive link. It lets you create quotes with products, negotiated pricing, payment terms, and custom branding, so customers can review them, approve them, and, when applicable, pay or remain on credit without leaving the flow.

The proposal then turns into automated invoicing, with support for CFDI 4.0 in Mexico and commercial invoices in other markets according to the information on the site. It also includes open tracking, AI automation, margin control, and options to embed the quote builder or connect it with other systems.

Main features

Quote editor with negotiated pricing

Create interactive quotes from a catalog, adjust prices per line item, apply volume discounts, and define terms such as cash, Net 30, or Net 60. The total recalculates with VAT in real time.

Approval in a single link

Send a quote as a branded link so the client can open it on mobile, approve it, and, if applicable, pay online without creating an account or downloading PDFs.

Real-time tracking

Receive alerts when the client opens or approves the proposal, so you can follow up without relying on manual emails or WhatsApp messages.

Automated invoicing

Generate automated invoicing from the approved quote, with CFDI 4.0 in Mexico and commercial invoices in the rest of the world, without re-entering data.

AI automation

Use AI features to draft quotes from free text or emails, and to manage collections with assistants that negotiate payment plans with overdue customers.

Integration and embedding options

Integrate the quote builder into your own websites or applications through Cord Elements, webhooks, REST API, or connectors with Zapier, Make, and n8n.

  • Automated invoicing from approval
