The key difference

Both built for UK tradesmen - different approach to quoting

The key difference is how quickly you can produce a professional quote and what happens after you send it.

PayReady

AI quotes. WhatsApp send. PayReady AI payment chasers.

Describe the job in plain English. A professional quote with your branding, correct VAT, and your rates is ready in 30 seconds. Send it via WhatsApp - not a PDF email attachment. When the client goes quiet, PayReady AI drafts the chaser. Works fully from your phone.

Graft

UK trade management with template quoting.

Graft provides quoting, invoicing, and job management for UK tradesmen. Quotes are built from templates and line items - a solid approach, but slower than AI generation. No AI quoting, no WhatsApp send, and limited support for Irish tradesmen.
