Quotes that win work — and convert to invoices in one click when approved. Free, private, on your device.
An estimate is a sales document: it should go out while the conversation is still warm. This estimate maker opens instantly, remembers your business details and saved clients, and produces a clean, professional PDF in under a minute — itemised work, optional taxes and discounts, validity date, notes and terms, your logo and signature. No sign-up screen between you and the send button.
The quiet tax most tools charge is re-typing: the job gets approved and you rebuild the same document as an invoice. Here, every estimate you save to the workspace has a → Invoice action that copies the line items, client and terms onto a new invoice with its own next number and fresh dates. Nothing re-typed, nothing forgotten, numbering sequences kept separate for estimates and invoices.
An estimate is an informed approximation of cost that may move as scope firms up; a quotation is a fixed-price offer that becomes binding when accepted. Many trades use the words interchangeably, but if you intend the price to be fixed, send a quotation instead — same engine, properly titled.
Like every tool on this site, the estimate maker runs entirely in your browser. Clients, line items and history are stored on your device in IndexedDB — never uploaded, never seen by us, exportable as a single backup file, deletable any time. It also works completely offline once loaded, and the PDF never carries a watermark.
Yes — save the estimate to your workspace, then use its “→ Invoice” action in the Dashboard. The new invoice gets its own number from your invoice sequence, today’s date, and all the line items carried over.
Generally no — an estimate is an approximation, not an offer at a fixed price. A quotation, once accepted, usually is binding. If you need a fixed-price document, use the quotation maker.
Yes. Estimates use their own sequence (EST-001, EST-002…) per business profile, separate from your invoice numbers, so approving an estimate never creates a gap in your invoice sequence.
No. The document, your client list and your history live in your browser on your device. Export a backup anytime; nothing reaches our servers.
