Who is Cotiza for?
People who price their own service jobs: repair and handyman work, cleaning, painting, landscaping and similar independent work. The app supports quick hourly and itemized estimates using your own prices. The free web tools include painting, handyman and cleaning examples.
Can I send a quote through iMessage?
In the iPhone and iPad app, copy the bilingual quote text and paste it into Messages/iMessage, or use the share sheet where Messages is available. You can also preview and share an English or Spanish PDF. You choose the recipient and send it yourself. These sharing tools are included in Free.
What does the free app include?
Draft estimates, PDF and text sharing, three new saved jobs per calendar month, editing existing jobs, recording actual costs and amounts received, and private backup export/import. Premium adds no monthly save limit, templates, repeat-job drafts and trends.
Do my customers see my cost budget?
Itemized quotes have a private plan for your own time and direct costs. Customer PDFs and shared text include selling prices, scope and quote terms; they exclude private plans, actual costs and amounts you have received. Review every document before sharing.
Does Cotiza collect payments or issue invoices?
No. It produces estimates and records amounts you enter. It does not send invoices, process customer payments, calculate taxes, collect signatures or confirm that a customer accepted your quote.
Can I download the iPhone and iPad app now?
Yes. Download Cotiza free from the App Store for iPhone and iPad with iOS / iPadOS 17 or later. Premium is optional; Apple shows your price and billing period before you subscribe. The web calculator and guides also remain free.
Does it recommend local market rates?
You enter your own prices and costs. The worked examples explain arithmetic, not what a trade or city should charge. Actual job results are before taxes, overhead and expenses you have not recorded.
Where do my records live?
The web calculator keeps inputs in your browser only for the current visit. The iPhone and iPad app saves job records locally and offers manual backups; it has no automatic cloud sync. Its separate purchase reporting and optional usage analytics are explained in Privacy.
