Built-in accountability

Every fabricator on Gage is on a clock.

Once you accept a quote, your matched fabricator has 48 hours to confirm the job. If they don't respond, the lead automatically moves to the next nearest fabricator in their region.

No more chasing. No more radio silence three weeks into a project. The fabricators on Gage show up because if they don't, someone else gets the work.

0–24 hrs

Fabricator confirms the job.

Most do inside the first day. You get their contact details and a confirmed production slot.

24–48 hrs

Still open. The clock is ticking.

The fabricator is reminded and the lead stays theirs until the window closes.

48 hrs+

Lead released to the next fabricator.

No response means no job. You get matched with the next available fabricator automatically.
