arifiQ Development
arifiQ Development is a Swedish company that has, and will continue to, develop several applications, plug-
ins, and modules based on its unique and powerful technology platform.
The idea that catalyzed arifiQ’s establishment was the founders’ recognition that the wait for quotes, and then approvals, was a major cause of frustration for customers and printers, both. They felt that solving the problem by making the quote process faster could have major, positive ramifications for the industry. The company built a core technology, the arifiQ engine, in order to develop what is now the flagship product in the arifiQ product family: arifiQ PRO.
The arifiQ product family today includes the new arifiQ Optimizer, arifiQ PRO, Plug-in for InDesign, deQuote for quick print, and a Large-Scale Estimator for enterprise and high volume environments. The arifiQ MIS modules are: Gang-Run, Scheduling, Stock Control, Extended Statistics and Multi-Site. arifiQ also develops custom APIs so that any system or application can utilize arifiQ technology.
arifiQ Pro is a completely cloud-based, online estimating print solution that returns estimates on custom, and even complex, jobs in seconds. Print service providers can setup their full, custom price databases, with any number of presses, stocks, and customer profiles, in less than a few hours – and usually, in less than 60 minutes. They can update the database anytime. The system returns an accurate quote based on real-time device and inventory availability.
arifiQ Optimizer automatically creates gang runs and imposed PDFs of custom jobs – without the need of predefined templates. It also specifies the most efficient production path. arifiQ shares this information with the PSP's production automation solution – maybe Enfocus Switch, or Agfa Apogee, or another – and those solutions can automate production accordingly.
arifiQ Large Scale Estimating module makes it possible for print buyers and print service providers to answer extensive RFQs immediately, and then execute orders – including recurring procurements – as fast as clients say “yes”.
