RCTI Generator review

Intro

RCTI Generator is a free, browser-based tool for creating Recipient Created Tax Invoices and RCTI written agreements in Australia. The site describes it as Australia’s first dedicated RCTI generator and says users can create ATO-compliant documents online without signing up. According to the site’s terms and privacy policy, processing happens locally in the browser.

For Australian contractors and businesses that use or receive RCTIs, the main appeal is straightforward: prepare the required documents faster without building them from scratch each time.

What it does

RCTI Generator has two main functions:

• creating Recipient Created Tax Invoices online; and
• generating RCTI written agreements in PDF format.

The product pages say the tool calculates GST automatically, includes pre-filled compliance statements or ATO-required clauses, and provides an instant PDF download. In practice, that positions it as a document generator rather than a full accounting platform.

The site’s guidance also frames the agreement generator as a way to prepare the written agreement that must be in place before an RCTI is issued.

Key features

Based on the product, terms, and policy pages, the most clearly supported features are:

• Online RCTI creation: The tool creates Recipient Created Tax Invoices in the browser.
• Automatic GST calculation: GST is calculated automatically during invoice creation.
• Pre-filled compliance wording: The site says the generator includes mandatory compliance statements and ATO-required clauses.
• PDF output: RCTIs and written agreements can be downloaded as PDFs.
• Optional logo upload: Users can add a business logo if they want a more branded document.
• Local browser processing: The site says invoice and agreement data is processed entirely in the browser rather than being sent to its servers.

These features are practical rather than broad. The available evidence supports document preparation and export, but not wider bookkeeping, storage, or collaboration workflows.

Pricing and value

The tool is presented as free to use, and the site says no signup is required. That makes it easy to try and keeps the workflow lightweight.

The clearest value is convenience. Instead of manually formatting an RCTI, checking the wording, and calculating GST separately, users can enter the required details and download a finished PDF. For contractors or small businesses handling occasional or repeat RCTIs, that may reduce routine admin work.

There is also a privacy-related benefit for users who prefer not to upload business information to a cloud-based service. The privacy policy says the site does not collect, store, or transmit data entered into the generators, and that the data is gone when the page is closed.

Who this is for / not for

This may be a good fit for

• Australian contractors who need to create RCTIs quickly.
• Australian businesses that use or receive RCTIs.
• Users who want a free, browser-based tool with no signup.
• People who need both an RCTI and a written agreement PDF.
• Users who prefer a workflow that, according to the site, keeps generator data in the browser.

This may not be a good fit for

• Businesses looking for a full accounting or invoicing system.
• Teams that need shared accounts, collaboration, or ongoing file management.
• Users who need output formats beyond PDF.
• Anyone wanting confirmed support for use outside Australia.
• Users with complex tax or legal requirements who need professional advice rather than an informational tool.

Risks and limitations

The biggest compliance point is that a written agreement must be in place before an RCTI is issued. The site’s agreement guidance says that without a written agreement, the RCTI is invalid and input tax credits can be denied by the ATO.

That matters because a document generator does not determine whether an RCTI is appropriate in a particular situation. It may help with preparing the paperwork, but users still need to confirm that they meet the relevant requirements.

There is also an important limitation in the terms: the site says its tools and content are for informational purposes only and do not constitute professional advice.

A few product details remain unconfirmed in the available evidence, including:

• whether there are paid plans or premium features;
• whether user accounts exist;
• whether files can be retrieved after the browser session ends; and
• whether formats other than PDF are supported.

Verdict

RCTI Generator is a focused tool for a narrow Australian invoicing use case. On the available evidence, its strengths are simplicity, free access, no-signup use, automatic GST calculation, pre-filled compliance wording, PDF generation, and browser-based processing.

For Australian contractors and businesses that already know they need an RCTI and a written agreement, it looks like a practical way to prepare those documents faster. The main caution is that compliance responsibility still sits with the user: the site itself says a written agreement is required before issuing an RCTI, and its tools are informational rather than professional advice.
