Why Choose Us

Unlike rigid off-the-shelf tools that force your workflow into a box, our solution flexes with your business. It learns from your past seasons, anticipates spring surges in turf installation, and flags potential overbuys on perennials before they tie up your capital. This isn't just software; it's a strategic partner that keeps your trucks loaded and your clients satisfied.
What Makes Us Different:
Why This Delivers Real Results for Landscapers
Slash Waste on Unsold Materials
Slash Waste on Unsold Materials: Imagine never again rotting piles of unused topsoil eating into your margins. Our AI forecasts demand with 35% greater precision than manual methods, reducing overstock by up to 40% for seasonal items like mulch and perennials. In one season, this freed a mid-sized landscaping firm from $15,000 in dead inventory on abandoned sod orders, turning potential losses into reinvestable cash for fleet upgrades and new tiller equipment.
Accelerate Job Completion Times
Accelerate Job Completion Times: Stockouts delay crews and frustrate clients—costing you referrals. Our custom model predicts needs down to the pallet of gravel or bundle of rebar, ensuring 95% of jobs start on time for residential patios and driveways. Landscapers report 22% faster project turnarounds on average over a 6-month period, leading to higher client satisfaction scores and repeat business in competitive suburban neighborhoods.
Optimize Cash Flow for Growth
Optimize Cash Flow for Growth: Tying up funds in excess inventory hampers your ability to bid on big contracts. By aligning stock with actual forecasts for tools like edging shears and bulk aggregates, we've helped clients cut holding costs by 28% within the first year, freeing capital for hiring seasonal help or investing in eco-friendly equipment like electric leaf blowers that wins more green-focused bids for sustainable yard transformations.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ, we'd overbuy mulch every fall and scramble for sod in spring due to erratic client installs. Their system analyzed our past five years of residential projects and now we hit stock levels spot-on for everything from topsoil to pavers. Saved us about $8,000 last quarter alone on unused hardscape materials, and our crews aren't waiting on deliveries mid-job for backyard transformations anymore."
Mike Reynolds
Operations Manager, GreenScape Pros Landscaping
"Weather throws curveballs at landscaping—rain delays pushing back sod laying, heat waves messing with planting schedules for shrubs. This AI factors it all in, including local forecasts, and has cut our emergency supplier runs for irrigation tubing by half. We're finishing projects two days faster on average for commercial lawn installs, which means happier clients, fewer callbacks, and better margins on seasonal contracts."
Sarah Linden
Owner, Linden Landscapes & Irrigation
"We handle a lot of custom installs for homeowners, so demands vary wildly from flagstone paths to custom retaining walls. The forecasting tool integrates with our scheduling software perfectly, predicting everything from irrigation parts to decorative stone with historical job data. It's like having an extra planner on staff—reduced our inventory errors from 15% to under 2% in six months, allowing us to take on 20% more driveway projects without added storage costs."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does your forecasting handle the unpredictability of landscaping seasons?
Landscaping is all about timing—spring blooms, summer droughts, fall cleanups. Our AI ingests your past three years of data, plus external factors like local weather APIs and regional event calendars. For instance, it anticipates a 20% spike in irrigation parts during dry spells. We've tuned it for landscapers, achieving 92% accuracy in tests, far surpassing generic tools that ignore these nuances. Setup takes two weeks, and it evolves with your data for even better predictions over time.
What if my inventory includes both materials and equipment?
Absolutely, we cover it all—from bulk soil and plants to mowers and trimmers. The system categorizes items uniquely: perishables like flowers get urgency alerts, while durable gear like chainsaws factors in maintenance schedules. One client, a 50-crew operation, used it to predict tool needs across 200 jobs, cutting rental fees by 25%. We map your exact SKUs during discovery, ensuring nothing falls through the cracks in your mixed inventory.
Is this system easy for my non-tech field teams to use?
Your crews are out digging, not debugging software. That's why we design simple, mobile interfaces—like a weather app but for stock. Foremen get push notifications: 'Low on gravel for Site 12—reorder now?' No logins needed beyond your existing tools. Training is one session, and we've seen adoption rates hit 95% in landscaping firms. It's built tough for job sites, with offline mode for remote parks or estates.
How much does custom inventory forecasting cost for a mid-sized landscaping business?
Costs vary by complexity, but for a 20-50 employee landscaper with seasonal fluctuations, expect $25,000-$45,000 for full build and integration. This includes discovery, modeling, and three months of support. ROI kicks in fast: clients recoup via 30% waste cuts, often within the first season. No subscriptions—it's a one-time build for ongoing ownership. We start with a free consult to scope your needs precisely.
Can it integrate with my existing scheduling or CRM software?
Seamlessly. We connect to popular landscaping platforms like Aspire or ServiceTitan, pulling job details to forecast material needs per route. For example, if a client's requesting hardscaping upgrades, it auto-adjusts stone orders. Our two-way APIs ensure data flows without manual entry, reducing errors by 80%. If you're on custom setups, we handle that too—our team has integrated with over 50 tools for service pros.
What happens if my business grows or changes suppliers?
Scalability is core. As you add crews or switch to a new nursery supplier, our system adapts via modular updates—no full rebuilds. We include quarterly reviews to incorporate growth data, like expanding into hardscaping. One growing firm scaled from 10 to 30 trucks; we refined the model in days, maintaining accuracy. It's flexible, like adjusting irrigation for new garden beds—evolves with your operations.
