Quotes

A job enquiry comes in through the assistant. You open it, pick line items from your price list, and send a quote the customer can open on their phone and accept. No accounting software, no PDF wrangling.

Trades and service businesses that quote per job: electricians, plumbers, builders, landscapers, mobile mechanics, cleaners.

What it does

Builds on Contacts.

Included free, up to 200 quotes a month.

Starts from the enquiry

The job details a customer gave the assistant are already in the request. You are pricing, not re-typing.

Your price list, reused

Saved line items with rates and units, so the second quote for the same kind of job takes under a minute.

Accepted with one tap

The customer opens a link, sees the quote, and accepts. You get told immediately and the quote is locked.

Questions

Does this replace my accounting software?

No. This is quoting, not bookkeeping. Tax handling, invoice numbering and reconciliation belong in Xero, MYOB or QuickBooks, and we would rather export to them than compete with them badly.

Can I send an invoice from it?

No. An accepted quote is a record that the customer agreed to a price; a compliant invoice with tax handling and numbering belongs in Xero, MYOB or QuickBooks. We would rather export to them later than do it badly now.

Can the customer pay a deposit when they accept?

Not yet, for the same reason: paying money into your account needs a payment setup we have not built. The quote records the acceptance; you invoice and collect however you do today.
