What a good quote spells out
- The scope in plain words, and what is not included.
- Each deliverable or stage as its own line, so the client can drop one without renegotiating the rest.
- How many revision rounds are included, and what extra rounds cost.
- What you need from the client, and by when, for the dates to hold.
- Payment terms: deposit, stages, and how many days each invoice has.
- How long the quote is valid.

Questions
What's the difference between a quote and an invoice?
A quote is an offer before the work: what you'll do and what it will cost, valid for a set time. An invoice is the request for payment after the work, or a stage of it. Quotes don't need a sequential tax number, invoices do.
Quote, estimate or proposal: which should I send?
A quote is a fixed price for a defined scope. An estimate is your best guess and can change, so say that on it. A proposal usually adds the approach and the reasoning. This generator makes the first two; for a proposal, put the approach in the notes or send it alongside.
How long should a quote be valid?
Thirty days is common. Shorter if your prices depend on third-party costs or your calendar is filling up, longer for large projects with a slow approval process.
Is anything I type stored?
Only when you download. The quote and the PDF are built in your browser, and your browser keeps a local copy of the draft until you press "Start over". When you download, we ask where to send the PDF, email you a copy and keep the quote with your email, so you can open it in OIO later. Tips and reminders only if you tick the box.
