Free Quote Generator

Send a professional quote, let the client accept or decline online, and convert accepted quotes to invoices in one click. Quote numbers are sequential per year (QUO-2026-001), independent of your invoice numbering.

Create Quote Free

Most quote tools either lock the basics behind a subscription or bury you in PDFs the client has to print, sign, and email back. Plain Statement does it differently: this online tool works as a quote maker for business use, so the quote lives on a clean, branded page at a private link, the client clicks Accept or Decline, and you convert to an invoice without re-typing anything.

It works as a free online quote generator and online quotation maker for creating professional quotes without PDF back-and-forth.

What you can do

  • Build the quote with line items, quantities, unit price, tax rate, payment terms, and a clear validity date
  • Add optional items to present different pricing scenarios within the same quote
  • Include business details, client details, and contact details for both sides
  • Share with a single tokenised link — the recipient never needs an account
  • Recipient accepts or declines online; you see the status in your dashboard
  • Convert an accepted quote into an invoice with one click (idempotent — clicking twice doesn't create duplicates)
  • Download the quote as a PDF at any time using a reusable free quote template with your company logo, plus QUOTE / QUO # / VALID UNTIL labelling
  • Revoke the share link instantly if the deal goes cold

Quote lifecycle and payment terms

Plain Statement enforces a clear state machine so a signed quote can't silently drift after the recipient has acted on it. Once accepted, it functions as a formal document and formal offer rather than a rough estimate. Once a quote is accepted, declined, or converted, it's locked for edit.

draft → sent → accepted → converted (invoice created)
              ↓
              declined  |  expired

Acceptance locks in the fixed price or quoted price until expiry.

Quote numbering, done properly

Quote numbers run on their own per-year sequence (QUO-2026-001, QUO-2026-002, …). The issue date and validity period help track when each quote was created and how long it remains open. Converting a quote to an invoice mints a fresh invoice number — your invoice sequence stays gap-free even if a quote is never accepted. At year boundary, the counter resets to 001.

Send the quote without the spam-folder problem

Instead of attaching a PDF the client may never open, paste the share link into your own email. The recipient opens the link to view the online quote on a clean Plain Statement page, sees the quote, and acts. If they have a question, they can send it back through the page without exposing your email address to a typo.

This works well for clients reviewing the quote on any device before responding.

Convert quote → invoice

When the quote is accepted, hit Convert to turn that approved estimate into a fixed price quote and then into an invoice. Plain Statement creates a new invoice with the same client, line items, tax, currency, and notes, so the same products or services carry over and the project scope stays intact — referenced back to the source quote so your audit trail is intact. The conversion is idempotent: hitting Convert twice on the same quote returns the original invoice, never a duplicate.

That helps save time when work begins.

Who this is for

Freelancers, agencies, consultants, small studios, and small businesses who quote work before invoicing it. If you currently send quotes as Word docs, PDFs without state, or spreadsheets the client signs and emails back — this replaces that workflow with something cleaner and faster to operate. It also suits any business that needs reliable business quotes before invoicing.

Free to try, simple to upgrade

Create and download a quotation for free, including a quote PDF. A free account is useful if you want to save quotes and continue working on them later. Saving quotes to your account, sending share links, and converting to invoices are part of the paid feature set — Freelancer at €5/month, or Business as a single €35 payment for lifetime access. Both include automatic overdue reminders on the invoices that follow, helping you get paid faster.

Quotes — common questions

Is the free online quote generator free?

Yes. You can use the free quotation maker to create and download a quote as a PDF for free. With the free download flow, users can create professional, polished quotations. Saving quotes, sending share links and converting to invoices are part of the paid feature set — Freelancer (€5/month) or Business (€35 once, lifetime).

Can the client accept a quote online?

Yes. You share the quote as a private tokenised link as a formal offer for approval; the recipient opens a clean branded page and clicks Accept or Decline, and you see the status in your dashboard. No account is needed on their side. Once accepted and work begins, both sides are working from the same agreed quote.

Can I convert an accepted quote into an invoice?

Yes, in one click. Plain Statement creates a new invoice with the same business name, client, line items, tax, currency and notes, referenced back to the source quote. The conversion is idempotent — clicking twice returns the original invoice, never a duplicate. You can also carry over internal references if you need them for a proforma invoice workflow.

How are quotes numbered?

Quotes run on their own per-year sequence (QUO-2026-001, QUO-2026-002, …), separate from invoices. Converting a quote mints a fresh invoice number, so your invoice sequence stays gap-free even if a quote is never accepted.

Can I withdraw a quote after sending it?

Yes. You can revoke the share link instantly if the deal goes cold, and once a quote is accepted, declined or converted it locks for edit so it can't silently change after the client has acted.
