Connect a key and the tool reads dropped quote PDFs for you, answers questions about the data in plain English, and writes objection handling on the spot. Anthropic is paid but never trains on your data; Google Gemini has a genuinely free tier with a trade-off worth reading below.
Read this before you paste a key. The key is stored in this browser only and is sent straight to Anthropic from this page — but anyone with access to this computer or this browser profile can read it out of local storage, and anyone who loads this page from your Pages site uses their own key, not yours. Use a key with a low monthly spend limit, and rotate it if the laptop changes hands. For the whole team, use the Cloudflare proxy option in the notes below instead — then no key ever lives in a browser.
Auto-detected if deployed
Free tier trade-off. Google's free Gemini tier is genuinely free — 1,500 requests a day, no credit card — but Google may use free-tier requests to train their models. Every competitor quote you read through it is commercially sensitive. Anthropic never trains on API traffic, and at roughly a cent per quote read this costs a few dollars a month at real volume. Free is the right call for testing; think twice before running your live competitive intel through it. Quotas are also per-day and shared across Google's free users, so a busy afternoon can return 429 or 503 — the tool falls through to other free models automatically, and Anthropic is the fallback that always answers.
Proxy option: deploy functions/api/claude.js to the same Cloudflare Pages project, set ANTHROPIC_API_KEY as an environment variable there, and put /api/claude in the proxy field above. The key then lives on Cloudflare, never in anyone's browser, and every rep gets the AI features with nothing to set up.
Installed project & award evidence
Real awarded totals for complete booth projects — federal contracts, school district bids, transit authorities. These are not equipment prices and never enter a comparable band, but they are the best answer you have when a customer asks what the whole thing really costs.

1Start here — drop the competitor quote you're up against
Files save the moment you drop them — nothing to click. If AI is connected it reads the document and fills in company, model, size and price for you; you just confirm and add the outcome. No quote in hand? Skip to step 2 and quote against the published field.
Drop competitor quote files here — they save automatically PDF, image, spreadsheet. Filed the instant they land. With AI connected they are read and filled in for you.
Quote archive — your uploaded PDFs
Every file you have ever dropped in, searchable and openable. Click View to read the original PDF, Save to pull a copy out.
The .zip holds your original PDFs with readable filenames plus a manifest — unzip it into Quote PDFs on the Marathon Drive. The .json is a complete restore file with the PDFs embedded — drop it in Archive Backups. Restoring that one file rebuilds this entire archive on any machine.

Project cost adders
Get these on the table before the customer's contractor does. Installation routinely equals or exceeds the booth.
