Not just a PDF summary

A structured check, with the working visible.

QuoteCalm separates what your quote actually says from calculations and guidance. Important findings can be traced back to the document, and uncertain figures are flagged rather than quietly treated as fact.

01 — From your quoteExtract the facts that are actually shown.

Price, equipment, warranties, finance terms and installation details stay tied to the source document.

02 — CalculationDo the maths separately.

System size and finance totals are calculated from the figures shown rather than guessed in prose.

11 × 515W = 5.67kWp

03 — CheckLook for inconsistencies and decision-useful gaps.

QuoteCalm applies defined checks, then promotes only the few points likely to matter before signing.

04 — EvidenceShow why a finding was made.

Open “Why we’re saying this” in a report to see the supporting quote text where available.

Every important finding is treated as a quote fact, a defined calculation, guidance, or something not clear from the upload.

What QuoteCalm noticed
!
Finance total needs checkingThe monthly payment alone does not show the overall cost.
!
Installation warranty needs clarifyingLong panel cover does not necessarily cover the installation work.
What to do next
Ask the installer: Confirm the total amount repayable, exact equipment, what is included in the installed price and the workmanship warranty before I sign.
What you actually get
Four useful checks

Everything that can change the conversation with your installer.

QuoteCalm turns whatever you have into the parts that matter before you commit thousands of pounds.

01 — PRICEWhat does the price actually cover?

See the headline price in the context of the system and inclusions actually shown — and when there is not enough evidence for a fair market judgement.

Understand the package price →
02 — FINANCEWhat could it really cost?

Where the figures are shown, see what the repayments could mean overall rather than focusing only on the monthly amount.

See the longer-term cost →
03 — EASY TO MISSWhat might you not have thought to check?

QuoteCalm promotes only the installation, equipment, warranty and assumption gaps that are genuinely worth asking about.

Notice the important bits →
04 — QUESTIONSWhat should you ask next?

Get a short practical list based on your actual quote, ready to copy as questions or as a complete message to the installer.

Why this matters

A quote can look complete and still leave important questions unanswered.

The useful part is not simply extracting the numbers. It is knowing which few points deserve your attention, why they matter and what to ask next.

  • Quoted facts kept separate from QuoteCalm calculations
  • Finance costs calculated where the quote provides enough figures
  • Only decision-useful issues promoted in the main result
  • Evidence available for important findings where the quote supports it
  • Questions you can copy and send straight back to the installer
How it works

Upload. Understand. Know what to ask.

No account, no phone number and no installer sales follow-up.

02 — UNDERSTAND
We simplify the quote

QuoteCalm checks the facts, calculations and easy-to-miss details, then promotes only the handful that genuinely deserve your attention.

03 — ACT
Know what to ask

Get plain-English next steps and a short message you can send back before signing.

The obvious questions

What’s the catch?

QuoteCalm is designed to be useful to the person buying solar, not to generate installer leads. Need more detail? Our solar quote guides cover price, batteries, finance, warranties and installer checks.

Why is the quote check free?

QuoteCalm is free during launch. The first 500 checks also help build a stronger de-identified dataset of UK solar quotes so future comparisons can become more useful without turning your upload into a sales lead.

Can I compare two quotes?

Yes. If you already have two quotes, our two-quote check gives you the same QuoteCalm approach across both: what genuinely differs, what you might have missed and the questions worth asking before you choose.

Will my details be passed to installers?

No. We do not ask for a phone number and we do not pass your contact details to installers for sales calls.

Can an installer pay to influence my result?

No. Installers cannot pay to change the outcome of a QuoteCalm check or receive a better ranking in your result.

Do you keep my uploaded quote?

The raw uploaded file is not stored after the check. We retain limited structured, de-identified information in line with our Privacy Notice so the service can improve its UK comparison data.

Can I upload a screenshot instead of the full PDF?

Yes. One screenshot can be enough for a useful partial check. QuoteCalm identifies when an upload looks more like a package page or partial proposal and will not treat missing contract terms as proof that an installer omitted them. You can run another check with the full proposal later if you have it.

Can QuoteCalm tell me exactly what my system should cost?

Not always. Property-specific factors can materially affect price and QuoteCalm does not yet have enough like-for-like market data to make a strong price judgement in every case. It will tell you what the price covers, what the finance means and when the evidence is not strong enough for a market comparison.
