Learns from your own quotes
Every quote and job you complete feeds the benchmark, so suggestions reflect the way you actually price — not a generic rate card from someone else's business.
Quoting & Estimating
Stop guessing your prices — quote with numbers you can trust
Gaffer's pricing suggestions are benchmarked against your own history and your trade, so you can price every line with confidence, protect your margins and send a winning quote in minutes instead of agonising over the figures.

How pricing suggestions work in Gaffer
Trade-aware ranges
Suggestions are tuned to your trade across all 58 supported trades, so the figures make sense whether you are pricing a rewire, a boiler swap or a day's tree work.
Per-line suggestions
As you build a quote, Gaffer suggests a price for each labour line and material item — so a single forgotten markup doesn't quietly eat your margin.
Spot under-quoting early
When a line sits below your usual range, Gaffer flags it before you send, so you stop winning work at a loss and find out at invoice time.
Always editable
Suggestions are guidance, never a forced figure. Accept, nudge up for a tricky access job, or override completely — you stay in control of every number.
Speeds up every quote
Sensible numbers appear as you type, so you spend seconds confirming instead of minutes second-guessing — and your quote goes out while you still have the customer's attention.

Common questions about pricing suggestions
Where do the pricing suggestions come from?
Suggestions are benchmarked against your own quote and job history plus typical ranges for your trade. The more jobs you complete in Gaffer, the more your suggestions reflect the way you actually price.
Will it change my prices automatically?
No. Suggestions are guidance only. Every figure stays editable and nothing is sent to a customer until you review and approve the quote, so you keep full control of your numbers.
Does it work in the mobile app and offline?
Yes. You can build and price quotes on the offline-first Android app (iOS coming soon) while standing in front of the customer, and everything syncs once you are back online.
Is this included in the free trial and the plan?
Yes. Pricing suggestions are part of Gaffer's quoting tools and are available throughout the 14-day free trial with no card required — see pricing for plan details.
