In their own words
Grass Go
Grass Go is an operations app for lawn care and landscaping businesses managing recurring weekly work, properties and per-visit billing. Its schedule provides a recurring timeline, auto-rescheduling, future planning and billing from the schedule. A route builder orders stops into a drive route, while the map shows properties and can navigate to job sites.
Users can create estimates with line items and photos, get AI-assisted drafting, then convert approved estimates into invoices or service plans. Invoices can be sent by email, SMS or print, and saved cards can be charged after service through Stripe. A beta AI assistant can organize data from CSV files, photos and screenshots, draft estimates and accept voice input; users review changes before applying them. An optional phone system adds calling, two-way texting, call recording and history, plus a beta AI receptionist. Grass Go is available on Android, iOS and the web. Its free plan includes core app features and charges a 0.7% Grass Go fee plus Stripe processing on online card payments; offline payments are free. The Business Website plan is $5.00 per month.
