The gap it closes

Every quote that takes too long is a job someone else got first.

Word doc & WhatsApp

01Reformat the same template on a laptop back at the office
02Print, scan, or screenshot to send — logo half-cropped
03No record of what was quoted, or whether it was ever followed up
04Client compares your quote to a competitor's cleaner PDF

Quotara

01Fill line items on your phone, standing at the tank or the panel
02Branded PDF generates itself — your logo, your letterhead
03Every quote tracked, searchable, convertible to an invoice
04Sent over WhatsApp before you've left the site
How it works

Three fields. One quote number. Zero reformatting.

The same structure as the paper quote book you already use — just faster, and it never gets lost in a vehicle.

Field 01 — Quote No.

Auto-numbered

Every quote gets a sequential number the moment you open it — no more duplicate STS-0142s across three notebooks.

STS-0142 · draft
Field 02 — Client & scope

Line items, your rates

Add services, tank sizes, weld counts, day rates — whatever the job needs. Save common line items for the next quote.

4 items · K 9,550
Field 03 — Send

PDF, WhatsApp, or email

One tap generates a branded PDF and opens WhatsApp with it attached — in the client's hands before you're off site.

Quotara was built inside a real NDT consultancy company, on real jobs.

In-house pilot — Sackat Technical Services

Copperbelt NDT consultancy

Quotara was built and used inside Sackat before becoming a standalone product. Every feature earned its place because a real quote to a real Copperbelt mining client needed it — NDT consultancy engagements, procedure reviews against code, and radiation survey spot checks across industrial sites. It's not a demo. It's a tool we use.

Why we made it free during beta

The tool has to earn its price with you first.

Every technical trades business we've spoken to loses jobs the same way — the quote takes too long to get out, and the client calls the next number in their book. Quotara's answer isn't a bigger platform. It's the shortest possible path from "we can do that job" to "here's the branded PDF." Come use it. If it doesn't save you time against whatever you use now, tell us where it fails — we'll fix it or refund the coffee you spent trying.
