In any job management system a quote is a priced offer attached to a client: what the work is, what it costs, and what happens when they say yes. Chippie keeps that structure and handles the paperwork around it.
Build the quote
Create a quote against a client, or add the client as you go. A quote holds a description of the work, optional itemised line items, terms and notes.
Line items break the price down properly, and each one carries:
| Field | Options |
|---|---|
| Description | Free text |
| Type | Labour, materials, equipment, flat fee, subcontractor, other |
| Quantity and unit | However you price it: hours, metres, each |
| Unit price | The rate, not the total |
| GST | On or off, per item |
Totals and tax calculate automatically, so the maths is never the thing you get wrong.
Choose what the client sees
You decide whether the client sees the full line-item breakdown or just the total. Some jobs deserve the detail; some clients only want the number. Either way the PDF carries your business details and logo, and your own copy keeps the breakdown.
Send it
Email the quote straight from your phone. What the client receives is:
- A branded PDF they can save or forward.
- A secure link to an online quote page that opens on any phone.
- Accept and decline buttons that need no account and no app.
When they accept, the acceptance flows straight back into the app and the job is created automatically.
Polish the wording if you want
A one-tap AI polish tidies up the quote description's wording. You see the rewrite before it sticks and you can undo it. It changes words, never prices.
