There's design software for landscaping.
There's proposal software for landscaping.
Nobody put them together.
The gap
Design tools are built for designers. Hours to learn. Not practical in the field.
Proposal tools send quotes. Text and line items. No visuals.
Contractors pick one or the other. Or neither.
The process is broken
You show up. Walk the yard. Explain the scope.
Leave. Send a quote. Wait.
Customer can't picture it. They stall. Get more quotes. Pick the cheapest because every estimate looks the same.
That's not a sales problem. That's a systems problem.
The math is simple
Customers don't buy what they can't see.
Show them their yard with the project completed—actually show them—and the decision makes itself.
This isn't a trick. It's how people make decisions.
We kept hearing the same thing
"Great estimate. Never heard back."
"They went cheaper. Didn't understand the difference."
"My work is better. Can't prove it in a quote."
The work was fine. The process failed them.
Other industries fixed this
Contracts: used to be print, fax, mail. Now it's a link.
Graphics: used to need a designer. Now anyone can do it.
Outdoor contractors are still stuck with:
- Design software with a steep learning curve
- Text quotes that blend in
- Designers charging per mockup, 48-hour turnaround
That doesn't work when someone's ready to sign and you're in their driveway.
We looked at the options
Expensive software that takes months to learn.
Proposal tools that don't show anything.
Designers who charge per mockup and take days.
None of it worked.
So we built the thing that should have existed.
YardPal
Mockups. Proposals. Signatures. One tool.
Photo. Design. Send. Sign. Done.
No design skills. No waiting. No patchwork of apps.
Two approaches
One: Send quotes. Follow up. Wait. Win some.
Two: Show the work. Get the signature. Move on.
Same skills. Different system. Different results.
What this comes down to
Closing faster means steadier cash flow.
Steadier cash flow means you can hire right. Pay on time. Plan ahead.
Less time chasing means more time with your family.
This isn't about closing for the sake of closing. It's about building a business that runs properly.
The problem
Landscaping. Hardscaping. Fencing. Decks. Patios.
Same process for decades. Describe the work. Send a quote. Hope.
The best contractors aren't always winning. The ones who present better are.
That's backwards.
We're fixing it

The industry is changing. This is the tool for it.
