How it works
Four steps from visitor to booked job
The same proven flow that's processed 5,000+ quotes for UK trades — designed around how customers actually shop for trade services.
Quote builds itself
Each item adds to their quote with quantity, unit and notes. A live "readiness" meter tells them what's missing.
Submit & PDF
One click sends a polished PDF to their inbox, opens their personal quote portal, and pushes the lead to your dashboard.
You manage the pipeline
Move quotes from New → Contacted → Quoted → Won. Live pipeline value and conversion rate tracked automatically.
What's inside
Every feature your quoting needs
Built specifically for trade businesses. Every feature exists because a real tradesman asked for it.
🔍
Instant search
Customers type what they need and matching services surface as they type. No menus to dig through.
⊞
Browse by category
Don't know the term? Browse Lawns & Turf, Paving, Fencing, Maintenance — with starter services to bootstrap each quote.
⚡
Real-time pricing
Your pricing rules — material costs, labour rates, regional adjustments — applied live as customers build their quote.
📊
Quote readiness meter
A live progress meter shows customers how complete their quote is — gamifies the form-filling and boosts completion rates.
📂
Two project modes
"Full Project" for big design-led jobs, or "Select Individual Jobs" for itemised quoting. Customer picks what fits.
🎙️
Voice assistant ready
Customers who don't want to type can use the floating voice assistant pill to build the same quote via spoken words.
📄
Professional delivery
Every quote emailed as a branded PDF with your logo, terms and breakdown.
👋
Customer portal
Each customer gets their own URL to track status, message you, re-download the PDF and view their AI design preview.
💼
Admin dashboard + CSV
Every quote in your dashboard with pipeline value, conversion rate, status filter, actions and CSV export.
Side by side
The cost of manual quoting vs a platform that never sleeps
Seven everyday scenarios — same trade business, same enquiry — with and without the automated quotation tool.
✕
Without the quoting tool
Spreadsheets, phone tag, missed leads
✓
With A4T quoting
Self-serve, always-on, fully tracked
Time per quote
30–60 minutes
Site visit + measure + quote-up in the evening. Multiply by every enquiry that goes nowhere.
Time per quote
Zero of your time
Customer builds it themselves. You only spend time on quotes that look likely to convert.
Pricing accuracy
Guessed under pressure
Quoting in the van at 9pm leads to "I forgot the waste skip" mistakes that cost you margin.
Pricing accuracy
Your rules, every time
Material, labour and regional rates applied consistently. Same quote at 9am as 9pm.
Quote format
WhatsApp message
Or a screenshot from Notes. Customers compare you to chain firms with branded PDFs and you look small-time.
Quote format
Branded PDF emailed instantly
Looks every bit as polished as the big firms. Win on first impression before competitors even respond.
Lead tracking
Notepad & memory
Half the enquiries forgotten by next Tuesday. The good ones go to whoever followed up first.
Lead tracking
Live pipeline dashboard
Every lead in one place with status, value and last-contact date. Nothing slips.
Customer experience
Email tennis for a week
"Can you send the breakdown?" "What's it without VAT?" "Did you get my last email?"
Customer experience
Self-serve portal & messaging
Customer sees their quote 24/7, re-downloads the PDF, asks questions in-thread. You answer when ready.
Conversion data
"Feels like it's working"
No idea how many enquiries become jobs, which lead sources convert, or where you lose people.
Conversion data
Live % conversion stat
Quoted-to-won rate tracked monthly. Pipeline value forecast. Source attribution built-in.
Out-of-hours enquiries
Quoted next morning (maybe)
Customer's hot interest cools overnight. By Monday they've booked someone who replied Sunday evening.
Out-of-hours enquiries
Instant quote at 11pm
Customer gets a PDF before they go to bed. Wakes up still convinced you're the right choice.

Quote tool FAQ
Common questions
The things trades ask most before adding the tool to their site.
During onboarding we set up your pricing rules — material costs, labour rates, regional adjustments, minimum job sizes. The AI applies those rules to every quote automatically. You can update them anytime from the dashboard.
The quote is shown as a ballpark range with a clear "subject to site survey" footer. You always have the final say. Customers love knowing where they stand before investing time — and you save hours not quoting jobs that were never affordable.
Edit your pricing rules in the dashboard and every new quote uses the latest figures immediately. Bulk-update by material category or service type. Historical quotes keep their original pricing for audit. You can also contact us directly to update your pricing for you.
Yes. The Quote & Design plan adds the tool to your existing site via your web server, api and shortcode. The Full System and Premium plans give you a brand new white-labelled site with the tool built in.
Yes — under "Leads → Quotes" in your admin panel. Filter by status, search by postcode/name, bulk-update statuses, export to CSV. The dashboard widget on the front page shows pipeline value and conversion at a glance.
The "Full Project" mode handles big design-led jobs (e.g. full garden transformations) with stage-by-stage breakdowns. For smaller, mix-and-match work, "Select Individual Jobs" lets customers itemise as they go. Most trades use both.
