Quote Generator

Create professional price quotes for clients

Last updated: January 2025

About This Tool

A price quote is your opportunity to win business by clearly communicating value and pricing. Professional quotes help clients understand exactly what they are paying for and set expectations for the project scope.

What is Quote Generator?

A quote (or quotation) is a document that outlines the estimated cost of products or services before a client commits to purchase. Unlike an invoice, which requests payment for completed work, a quote is a proposal that can be accepted, rejected, or negotiated. It typically includes validity periods and detailed breakdowns of costs.

How It Works

The quote generator helps you compile your business details, client information, and itemized services or products with their prices. It calculates totals, applies any applicable taxes, and creates a professional document with a validity period. Once accepted, the quote serves as the basis for the final invoice.
