Relief attacks a quiet leak in manufacturing: quotes. Subcontractors price parts and projects from specifications and drawings, largely by hand and from experience, and a meaningful share of those quotes lose money. Relief's AI assistant reads the specification and design plans and drafts most of the quote, so estimators check and decide rather than start from a blank sheet.
It started, as Renan's post tells it, with a WhatsApp message from Cinqo's founder: “You should meet Mickael Mamou — he's the real deal.” The team began with quality-management systems, talked to more than 500 manufacturing professionals, and followed the evidence to quoting. The company was founded in October 2024 and raised €2.6M in seed funding in 2025 from Daphni, Galion.exe, OSS Ventures, Kima Ventures and business angels.
