Quoting software for Australian builders

Short answer

Quoting software for Australian builders prices jobs from a saved rate library rather than a blank spreadsheet. WinkScope holds labour rates and supplier pricing in AUD, applies 10% GST, produces a branded quote with inclusions, exclusions and a payment schedule, lets the client accept online and pay a deposit, and converts the accepted quote into a live job so the quoted figure becomes the budget you track against.

Quoting off last year's prices is the most expensive habit in the trade. WinkScope keeps your labour rates and supplier prices in one place, prices the job off them and sends a quote the client can accept from their phone.

Rates once, quotes forever

Update a supply rate and every open quote re-prices. No more quoting off a price you last checked two seasons ago.

GST inclusive or exclusive

Domestic clients see GST-inclusive totals; commercial clients see the exclusive figure with GST summarised. Same quote, right presentation.

Inclusions and exclusions

Spell out what is not in the price. Most variation disputes are actually exclusion disputes that were never written down.

Deposit on acceptance

Take a deposit at the moment the client accepts, rather than chasing it once the job is already booked in.

Templates by job type

Save your common job types — bathroom, deck, extension — and quote them in minutes instead of from scratch.

Frequently asked questions

Can I show a price range rather than a fixed price?

You can present estimates with allowances and provisional sums, with the assumptions stated so the client understands what could move.

Does the client need an app?

No — a secure link in the browser. They review, accept and pay a deposit if you asked for one.

Can I hide my markup?

Yes. Line-level visibility controls let you show a total, a section breakdown or full detail. Cost and markup stay internal.

Does it handle allowances and PC sums?

Yes, and when the actual cost lands the difference is priced as a variation against the allowance rather than absorbed.
