The quoting and invoicing software for Swiss tradespeople. You describe the job out loud, Bilto writes the quote, sends it, and chases if payment runs late.
Four steps that hold together. Most software does the quote, or the invoice, rarely the whole chain.
By voice or by keyboard, on site. Line items, quantities, your prices and the VAT fall into place. You read it back, fix anything, send.
They get the quote on WhatsApp, open it on their phone and sign with a finger. Nothing to print, nothing to scan, no "I'll send it back tomorrow".
The work is done: the quote becomes an invoice, with nothing to retype. Deposit, balance, Swiss QR in the format banks accept.
And if it drags. Bilto chases for you, politely, then more firmly, in your client's language.
That is all. Fifteen days to try it on your next job.
Start freeWritten for you
Describe the job out loud, in the van or on site. The line items, the quantities, your catalogue prices and the VAT get written. You read it back, fix anything, send. Two minutes instead of an evening.
You describe, the quote writes itself. Two minutes instead of an evening.
WhatsApp and signature
Your client gets the quote where they actually read their messages. They open it on their phone and sign with a finger. No PDF to print, no scanner, no "I'll send it back tomorrow".
They open it on WhatsApp and sign with a finger. Nothing to print.
Swiss QR-bill
From 30 September 2026, Swiss banks will no longer accept QR-bills whose address is not in structured format. Bilto formats them correctly, without you having to know what that means. Your clients pay, your invoice doesn't bounce back.
Structured addresses, required by Swiss banks from 30 September 2026.
Automatic chasing
An unpaid invoice? Bilto sends the reminder for you, politely, then more firmly, in your client's language. You stop losing money because you didn't dare ask.

One-click payment
A Pay now button on the invoice: three clicks from their phone, through your TWINT or Stripe link, and the money lands directly in your account. Bilto never touches the funds.
A button on the invoice, three clicks, the money straight into your account.
Four languages
English. French. German. Italian, not just the interface, but the document they receive. One job in Bern, another in Lugano: the document is right, you stay credible.
The document goes out in German or Italian, not just the interface.
What the job earned you
Photograph your material invoices and they file themselves. At the end you see what came in, what went out, and what's left. No spreadsheet.
Photograph your invoices. See what came in, what went out, what's left.
Accounting export
Invoices and expenses as CSV, plus the VAT statement by rate, 8.1, 2.6 and 3.8 percent. Your fiduciary imports instead of retyping, and the sorting evening disappears.

Offline mode
With no signal you browse quotes, invoices and clients, and prepare drafts. When the signal returns, everything syncs by itself.
No signal: browse, prepare drafts. Everything syncs on return.
Swiss made
Most "Swiss" invoicing software sends your job description to a model hosted in the United States. This one doesn't.
The model that writes your quotes is hosted at Infomaniak, on the same infrastructure as everything else. Neither your client's name nor your prices leave the country, not even for the length of one computation.
Their own data centres in Geneva and Winterthur, ISO 27001 certified since 2018. A Swiss company, with no foreign parent.
Your clients, your prices, your margins fall under the revised FADP and no other law. And you export them whenever you want.
Bilto is designed and written in Switzerland by Emerge Studio, interface, brand and content included.
Quotes sent from the site, invoices paid on time, and Sunday evenings handed back to the family.
« I used to write my quotes on Sunday evening. Now I dictate them in the van, between two jobs. »
« My German-speaking clients get the quote in German without me translating a line. It opened up Bern. »
« The QR-bill was my worry for 2026. Sorted, I don't think about it any more. »
« A quote sent over WhatsApp gets read within the hour. By email I was waiting three days. »
« I moved my two hundred clients over from another package in one afternoon. »
« The reminders go out on their own. I recovered two invoices I had forgotten about. »

For a team out on site
The things we get asked most. If something's missing, write to us, we answer quickly.
Yes. Every invoice comes out with its QR payment part to the Swiss Payment Standards, carrying your QR-IBAN or your reference. One deadline worth knowing: since November 2025 the standard requires structured addresses inside the QR code, and banks only process the old free-text addresses as a courtesy, until the end of September 2026. After that they can reject the invoice. Bilto issues structured addresses.
Yes. Your clients, your prices and your margins are hosted with Infomaniak, in its data centres in Geneva and Winterthur. The AI that writes your quotes runs on the same infrastructure: your description of the job does not leave the country either.
Yes, and that is the whole point. The language of the app and the language of the document are two separate settings: you stay in English while the quote goes out in German, French or Italian, depending on the client.
Yes, a real iOS and Android app, not a website in disguise. It opens fast, it works in the van, and the site photos go out from the phone that took them.
No. They get a link by email or over WhatsApp, they open it, read it and sign from their phone. Nothing to install, no account to create.
Yes. The Swiss rates are built in and VAT is worked out line by line. If you are not VAT-registered, one setting switches your documents to VAT-free.
Yes. You start free, with no card. You only pick a plan the day you need one, and you can change it or stop whenever you like.
You export everything whenever you want: quotes, invoices, clients, price catalogue. Your data is yours, and leaving does not require asking us for permission.
