See full pricing & comparisonWhy estimates are the first thing pros set up.
Win the speed race
Clients pick the quote that lands first. Same-day quotes convert three times more often than next-week quotes.
Look like a business
Branded PDF + a public portal with your logo says 'company' rather than 'guy with a truck and a notebook.'
Skip the re-entry
Accepted estimate → invoice → paid, with no blank forms in between. Fewer mistakes, less paperwork.
Track what happens next
See when the client opened the estimate, how long they spent, and which action they took. No more dead-air after the send.
Close on the spot
Deposits collected inside the acceptance flow let the client say yes and pay up front in the same action.
Keep pipeline honest
Expired drafts flip themselves to expired. The number on your dashboard is the number you can actually close.
Everything an estimate needs, nothing it doesn't:
- Line items with kind, quantity, and unit
- Draft by voice or chat, the AI assistant pulls from your price book
- Per-item taxable flag
- Discount as amount or percent
- Expiration date with auto-expire
- Notes, scope, assumptions, validity terms
- Photos from the site
- Public share link with open tracking
- One-tap convert to invoice on acceptance
- Signature capture on acceptance
- Deposit collection in the acceptance flow
- Scope revisions with version history
- Per-estimate terms and warranty text
Estimates for the US trades that run from the truck.
What a great estimate tool gives you back.
Confidence at the door
Your price book does the math while you're still walking the property. Quote on the spot without doing mental arithmetic.
Momentum after the send
Open-tracking and auto-reminders keep estimates warm so they don't go cold on your dashboard.
A clean win
Accepted estimate flips to invoice in a tap. No typing the same numbers twice, no manual status change.
Transparent scope
Photos, bullets, and terms live on the same PDF. Clients know what they're buying; you know what you're on the hook for.
A signed paper trail
Signature and timestamp preserved with the estimate. If scope becomes a question later, the record is right there.
No surprise endings
Expired estimates drop themselves off the pipeline. You don't chase ghosts and your close-rate stops lying to you.

Common questions about estimates.
Can I send estimates on the free plan?+
Yes, three estimates are included on the free plan. Solo and above are unlimited.
What happens when an estimate is accepted?+
The status moves to accepted and a 'Convert to invoice' button appears. One tap creates the invoice with everything already filled in.
Can clients decline with a reason?+
Yes. When they decline from the public portal, they can leave a short note. You see it on the estimate detail page.
Do estimates expire automatically?+
If you set an expiration date, yes. A daily cron flips overdue drafts to expired so your pipeline doesn't lie to you.
Can I duplicate an estimate?+
Duplicate is on the roadmap. For now, convert the accepted one into a template by saving its items to the price book.
Can a client sign the estimate?+
Yes. Signature capture is built into the public acceptance flow, and the signed copy is stored alongside the estimate PDF.
What about collecting a deposit on acceptance?+
Set a deposit amount or percentage; the client pays it as part of the acceptance flow on the public link.
How do revisions work?+
Edit the estimate and send again, the activity feed records each revision so both sides know which version was accepted.
