Widths, lengths and heights now follow each shed type's limits, as the desktop has them.

  • A portal can be 2–25 m wide and up to 7 m high; a skillion stops at 12 m wide and 5 m high. Each type’s boxes now allow just its own sizes, the same as the desktop’s.
  • The online quoter keeps each type to its own limits as well as the sizes you offer, and Settings → Online quoter shows each type’s limits beside it.

Drag bays and doors into place, and clad or open walls on a plan, with everything checked as you go.

  • Bays: drag a frame, type a width, lock a bay, add or delete bays, or space them evenly.
  • Walls: tap walls on a plan to clad or open them, or pick a quick layout like drive-through or carport. Undo and redo included.
  • Doors and windows: a to-scale wall elevation to drag openings along, with exact distances, snapping, and plain-words reasons when one doesn’t fit.
  • Picked walls and openings light up in the 3D view.

The online quoter keeps bots out without a puzzle, and keeps suspicious quotes out of your leads.

  • A small proof of work runs while customers design: nothing to see, and it works by keyboard and with a screen reader.
  • Suspicious quotes go to Web leads → Suspected spam. They send no email and don’t count against your plan; Release lets a real one through.
  • Choose the sensitivity.

See where every job is at, from web lead to complete, and how the period compares with the last.

  • Jobs at each stage: web lead, quote, ordered, certification, materials ordered, delivery booked, complete and closed.
  • Quotes, orders, conversion and values against the period before, with shed types, sizes and lead sources.
  • What needs attention: quotes about to expire, new web leads and orders that have stopped moving.
  • Record a web job’s steps, and close a quote with a reason.

Starter, Pro and Max plans of 100, 500 and 1,000 priced quotes a month, with warnings and top-ups.

  • Each distributor’s plan, and this month’s use, on Settings → Online quoter → Plan.
  • Only priced quotes count: not designs, spam, or sheds that couldn’t be priced.
  • Past the limit, the quoter keeps taking enquiries without a price, so no customer is turned away.
  • Warnings at 80% and 100% of the month.

The online quoter now has two styles: a six-step quick quote, and the full designer.

  • Quick quote: type, size, two colours, doors and the site, then the price.
  • Full designer: everything you offer, with the 3D view following every change.
  • Let pages choose their style, give each website key its own, and let a quick quote hand over to the full designer.

Emails the app prepares about web leads and 3D links are checked by ShedTech before they go, so nothing reaches a customer by mistake.

  • New web leads, customers’ confirmations and 3D view links are checked before they’re sent.
  • Each web lead shows its email status: held for approval, you were told, or why it wasn’t sent.
  • Every lead is in Web leads the moment it arrives, so you can follow it up straight away.

Several options under one customer's quote, a history of every save, and orders that never change once placed.

  • Options A, B and C under one quote, each with its own saves. Save as a new option, duplicate one, or start a blank one for the same customer and site.
  • Every save is a version: open any older one read-only, or compare two in History.
  • Ordering an option fixes its parts, price and documents. To change it, copy it to a new quote.

Send a customer a link or QR code to their shed in 3D, with your logo, without them signing in.

  • Links last 7, 30 or 90 days, or never, and can be withdrawn, regenerated or renewed.
  • Show the price only if you choose; never the parts list, costs or engineering.
  • See how often each link was opened, and when last.

Design, engineer, price and document portal and skillion sheds and gable and skillion carports from any device, with the same engine as the desktop.

  • Design portal and skillion sheds and gable and skillion carports in the browser, on a computer, tablet or phone.
  • The engineering and pricing are the desktop’s own, checked part for part and price label by price label against it on real jobs.
  • The quote screen is laid out like a shed configurator: the shed’s sections, the 3D view and the price together. Each change is designed about a second later.
  • Customer quotes in your chosen style, and the full set of construction drawings.
  • Quotes and orders from the desktop are listed beside new ones, and open priced as their distributor.

Put a 3D shed designer on your own website, follow up its quotes in Web leads, and quote in front of customers with costs hidden.

  • Online quoter: one line of code puts a 3D shed designer on your website. Customers find their site, design the shed and see a price, worked out as your business.
  • Choose what customers can design, the price they see (full, a range, “from”, or none) and how it looks.
  • Web leads: every quote sent is saved as your quote, with its status, notes and the page it came from.
  • Present mode hides costs, margins and the parts list while a customer looks at your screen. A PIN brings them back.

Choose the site on a satellite map and ShedTech looks up its wind. Nothing about the wind is typed in.

  • Search the address and drag a pin onto the slab; the wind region and ground height follow the pin.
  • The terrain category, shielding and topography are looked up for that spot in all eight directions.
  • A saved quote keeps the wind it was designed with, so it always designs the same way.
  • If the wind lookup doesn’t answer, ShedTech says so rather than assuming a terrain category.
