How do I create a price quotation or sales estimate online for free?

Open AnyTool’s Quotation Generator, fill in your business and client details, add line items with quantity and unit price, set an issue date and a “valid until” expiry, add an optional discount, tax, terms and an acceptance line, then download a PDF or print it. A quotation is a proposed price — valid only until its expiry date, not a demand for payment — and everything, including your logo and client data, runs in your browser and is never uploaded.

  • Add unlimited line items; subtotal, discount, tax and total compute live and round to cents
  • Set an issue date and a validity / expiry date (one-tap 7/14/30/60/90-day presets)
  • Pick any currency — amounts are formatted with the right symbol automatically
  • Add terms & conditions, notes and an optional client acceptance / signature line
  • 100% client-side — your business, client and logo data never leave your device

What is

Quotation Generator

A quotation generator is a tool that turns business and client details plus a list of priced line items into a formatted quotation (price quote / sales estimate) — a proposed price for goods or services, issued before the sale and valid only until a stated expiry date. It computes the subtotal, any discount, tax and the grand total, and exports the quote as a downloadable PDF with terms and an optional acceptance line.

Frequently Asked Questions

A quotation is a fixed proposed price valid until an expiry date; an estimate is an approximate, non-binding figure; an invoice requests payment after work is agreed and done.

A quotation (quote) is a formal offer that locks a price for a defined period — typically 14 to 90 days — and becomes binding once the client accepts it. An estimate is an approximate calculation that can change as the work progresses, so it is non-binding. An invoice is different again: it is issued to request payment for goods or services that have been agreed and delivered. The workflow is usually estimate or quote first, then acceptance, then work, then an invoice for payment. Use AnyTool’s Quotation Generator to propose a price; once it is accepted, use the Invoice Generator to request payment.

Yes. It is free with no signup, and your business, client and logo data are processed only in your browser — nothing is uploaded.

AnyTool’s Quotation Generator is completely free with no account, no watermark and no sign-up wall. The quotation is assembled and the PDF is built entirely on your device using a local engine, so your business details, your client’s details, your line items and even your uploaded logo never leave the browser. An optional “Save draft” keeps a copy only in this browser’s local storage.

Most businesses keep a quote valid for 14 to 90 days; set a clear “valid until” expiry date so prices are not locked in indefinitely.

A quotation should always carry a validity or expiry date so you are not bound to the quoted price forever. The common range is 14 to 90 days depending on the industry; this protects you against changes in material, labour or exchange-rate costs and gently encourages the client to decide. The Quotation Generator includes an issue date plus a “valid until” field with one-tap 7, 14, 30, 60 and 90-day presets, and the expiry date is printed on the quote and its footer; the live preview even flags a quote whose date has already passed as expired.

A quote number, your business and client details, an issue date and a valid-until date, itemised line items, subtotal, discount, tax, total, terms and an acceptance line.

A professional quotation usually carries a unique quote number, your business name, logo and contact details, the client’s “quote for” details, the issue date and a validity / expiry date, an itemised list of goods or services with quantity and unit price, the subtotal, any discount, the applicable tax, the grand total, terms and conditions, optional notes, and often a client acceptance or signature line. The Quotation Generator provides all of these fields. Note it is a document generator, not accounting or tax software — confirm the rules for your country.

Detailed Explanation

How It Works

In-Browser Price Quotation & Sales Estimate Generation

AnyTool’s Quotation Generator produces a quotation — a proposed price for goods or services, issued before any sale and valid only until a stated expiry date — entirely in the browser. From business and client details plus a list of line items (description, quantity, unit price), it computes each line amount, the subtotal, an amount-or-percent discount, tax on the discounted base and the grand total. It reuses the Generators category’s golden money engine (computeTotals / formatMoney) for the arithmetic, mapping the quote onto the engine’s Invoice shape since a quotation is structurally an invoice with a QUOTATION title and a validity date and no amount-paid. The quote PDF is assembled client-side with pdf-lib, and a live preview updates as you type.

  • Quotation = a proposed price, issued before a sale and valid only until its expiry date — not a demand for payment
  • Unlimited line items with description, quantity and unit price; subtotal, discount, tax and total computed live and rounded to cents
  • Amount-or-percent discount and a custom tax label (Tax / VAT / GST) on the discounted base
  • Any currency formatted with Intl.NumberFormat; quote PDF built in-browser with pdf-lib — no server, no CDN
  • Reuses the same computeTotals / formatMoney engine as the Invoice and Receipt generators
Methodology

Validity, Terms and an Acceptance Line

A quotation carries an issue date and a “valid until” expiry date, with one-tap 7, 14, 30, 60 and 90-day presets — the common 14-to-90-day window that protects the seller from cost changes and prompts the client to decide. The expiry date is printed on the quote header and footer, and the live preview flags a quote whose date has already passed as expired. Free-text terms and conditions and notes are included, plus an optional client acceptance block with signature and date lines and a “prepared by” field — the elements that turn an accepted quote into an agreement.

  • Issue date plus a valid-until expiry date with 7/14/30/60/90-day presets
  • Validity window is typically 14–90 days; the page surfaces an expired flag once passed
  • Editable terms & conditions and notes, printed on the PDF and preview
  • Optional client acceptance / signature line and a prepared-by field
Privacy & Security

Privacy: Business and Client Data Never Leave the Device

Because the entire tool runs client-side, the business name and contact details, the client’s details, the line items and even the uploaded logo are processed only in the browser and are never uploaded, logged or stored on a server. An optional “Save draft” persists a copy solely in the browser’s local storage, which the user controls and can clear with Reset. The page works offline once cached, with no account, watermark or sign-up wall, and states honestly that a quotation is a proposed price (not a bill) — once accepted, the seller issues an invoice to request payment.

  • No upload of business, client, line-item or logo data
  • Quote PDF generation happens locally with pdf-lib
  • Optional draft stored only in this browser’s localStorage
  • No account, no watermark, no sign-up wall; works offline after first load
