Quoting software built for custom workrooms

Pleat replaces spreadsheet quoting with tools that know how custom window treatments are actually built. Drapery, shades, valances, cornices, and bedding, each priced down to fullness, fabric, and labor.

“The details are not the details.
They make the design.”

Charles Eames

The problem

Spreadsheets were never built for a workroom

By the third quote of the morning, the spreadsheet has lost its mind. Cells reference cells that reference yardage from a job you finished last week.
Every workroom owner who has priced by spreadsheet

A transposed digit becomes an under-quote you only notice after the fabric is cut and the money is gone.

One fullness tweak and every linked cell drifts, quietly, three tabs away from where you were looking.

A client change means rebuilding the sheet from the middle out, hoping nothing downstream broke.

Built for the craft

Software that speaks workroom

The calculations you do by hand, priced the way you actually price them, from the first measurement to the sent quote.

Pricing breakdown

Every number traces back to its formula

Expand any treatment to see fabric, labor, lining, and hardware broken out, with the exact formula behind each figure. No more reverse-engineering a total you wrote three weeks ago.

Quote builder

Quote the whole job, room by room

Build a quote the way the project is organized: grouped by room, tied to the design firm and sidemark, with the total updating as you add treatments. Send it or print it when it's ready.

Dashboard

Open the morning with the numbers that matter

Revenue from accepted quotes, how many are draft, sent, accepted, or rejected, plus your design firms and treatment types, all on one screen. Stop running yesterday's spreadsheet to figure out where you stand today.

Revisions

Revise without losing the original

A sent quote locks into an immutable snapshot, so the pricing a client saw never changes underneath them. Need to rework it? A revision starts a new version and keeps the old one intact.

Add-ons

Trim, tiebacks, and hardware

Price add-ons like trim and tiebacks right on the treatment, and pull from a hardware catalog you can import from a CSV. It all rolls into the quote total.

Pricing rules

Your pricing, applied cleanly

Set your labor grids and pricing levels once. Every quote applies them automatically, with money calculated to the cent using decimal math, never floating point.

Treatment coverage

Every treatment, called by its real name.

Pleat is not a generic line-item tool with fabric bolted on. It models how each treatment is built, so the styles you already quote by hand are the styles you pick from.

Drapery

10 headings

Pinch pleat, Euro pleat, goblet, cartridge, pencil pleat, inverted box pleat, rod pocket, tab top, grommet, and ripple fold, with draw direction, returns, overlap, and pin set built into the cut.

Shades

Roman + gathered

Flat, soft, custom, and front or back batten Roman shades, plus the gathered family: Austrian, balloon, and shirred balloon, each with its own fold and lift geometry.

Valances

Straight + shaped

Rod pocket, gathered, box pleat, tailored pleat, knife pleat, and Roman, plus shaped balloon, Austrian, scalloped, swag, and the Kingston and Empire swag-and-tails.

Cornices

Board-mounted

Upholstered top treatments with straight or shaped bottoms, priced by the linear foot the way a board-mounted piece actually runs.

Bedding

Twin to Cal king

Duvet covers, coverlets, bedspreads, gathered, tailored, and box-pleat bed skirts, and pillow shams, each sized to the bed and priced per piece.

How it works

From measurement to sent quote

Three steps, and none of them involve a formula you have to remember.

  1. Configure your treatments

    Set up each treatment type once with your own fullness, allowances, labor grid, and fabric and hardware defaults. Pleat adapts to how your workroom prices, not the other way around.

  2. Quote in seconds

    Enter the window dimensions and treatment details. Pleat computes cut lengths, yardage, fabric, and labor, and builds a room-organized quote with every formula shown.

  3. Send, print, and revise

    Send the quote with a preview, or print a work order for the shop floor. When a job changes, a revision starts a new version while the sent snapshot stays locked for your records.
