Why contractors drop the spreadsheet

A static template still leaves you doing the math, the formatting, and the PDF export by hand — on a phone, in a truck.

Automatic math

Line totals, subtotal, markup, and tax recalculate as you type. No broken formulas, no arithmetic slips in front of a client.

Instant PDF

Download a clean, client-ready PDF in seconds instead of fighting Word page breaks or printing a spreadsheet.

Consistent and professional

Every estimate uses the same layout, numbering, and terms — so your quotes look the same whether you send one or twenty.
