If you can send a text, you can knock out a quote.
"Swap a 250L electric HWS for a heat pump, relocate the outdoor tap, half a day." Plain English, straight from your phone.
Deposit terms, hourly rate, call-out fee — big buttons, no typing. About thirty seconds.
Professional PDF, your branding. Check the figures, tweak a line if you want, email it to the client. Done. Beers.
The quote states that it constitutes a tax invoice on signed acceptance — so there's no second document to raise, no chasing paperwork after the client says yes. Sign, and you're invoiced.
Underneath that sits the stuff most tradies leave out and regret: an exclusions list so scope creep is a variation instead of an argument, retention of title until you're paid, defects liability with an end date, late payment interest, and your rights under the Security of Payment Act spelled out. It's the difference between a number in a text message and a document that holds up.

Prices in AUD. Full pricing on the main site.
Every line is itemised ex GST, then the subtotal, GST at 10% and total inc GST are calculated for you. Change a rate or a quantity before you send it and every figure recalculates — no mental arithmetic at 9pm, no quote that's $200 out.
Yes. Every line, rate and condition is editable before you send, and the totals follow your edits. You know your pricing better than any tool does — this just saves you writing the other four pages.
Exclusions, variations, retention of title, defects liability, insurance, dispute resolution and Security of Payment rights are all included and written in plain English. It's a solid starting point — for a big or unusual contract, have your own adviser cast an eye over it.
Your first one's free. After that a single document is $29 one-off with your own branding and no subscription. Pro only makes sense from about two docs a month onwards — we'll tell you that rather than push you.
No. It runs in your phone's browser at app.paperwrk.com.au — add it to your home screen and it behaves like an app. Quote from the ute before you've left the driveway.
First one's free. No credit card.
