1. Ask-your-availability AI search (in development)
The problem: landscapers don't think in catalog categories. They think "full-sun shrubs, deer resistant, 5-gallon, under $40"—which is exactly what they'd say on the phone.
The feature: they type it that way, and the app answers from your live inventory. The phone call, without the phone. It's the feature that makes a 2,000-variety catalog feel small.
2. Smart substitutions (in development)
The problem: "out of stock" is where sales go to die—the customer closes the app and calls your competitor.
The feature: when a plant sells out, the app immediately suggests comparable material you do have: same use, similar size and exposure. The sale stays in your yard.
3. Lost-demand report (in development)
The problem: you never see the orders that didn't happen. What did customers search for last April that you didn't carry?
The feature: a report of searched-but-not-found plants, sized by how often they were wanted. It turns invisible missed revenue into next season's growing and buying plan—data no availability-email workflow could ever give you.
4. Back-in-stock alerts (coming soon)
The problem: you restock a hot item, and it takes days for customers to find out—usually by calling.
The feature: customers follow a plant and get a push notification the moment your count goes up. The first orders land minutes after the restock, and you watch demand reveal itself in real time.
5. Snap-to-reorder (coming soon)
The problem: a landscaper standing in your yard—or at a finished job—knows exactly which plant they want more of, but not what it's called in anyone's catalog.
The feature: photograph the tag or the plant, and the app matches it to your catalog and drops it in the cart. The yard becomes a showroom where everything is one photo from ordered.
6. Job-site project lists (coming soon)
The problem: a landscaper's orders aren't really orders—they're projects. "Maple Grove Phase 2" might mean four orders over six weeks, placed by three different people.
The feature: orders organized by project, shareable with the crew, reorderable as a package. Whoever is at the site can pull up the job's plant list and add to it.
7. Pre-booking & grow reservations (coming soon)
The problem: you plan spring production on guesses in December, then watch demand surprise you in April.
The feature: your best customers lock in spring material over the winter, right in the app. You grow and buy against real commitments; they stop sweating spring availability. Everybody plans better.
8. Text-to-order AI (exploring)
The problem: some customers will text you a plant list until the end of time—and someone in your office retypes every one.
The feature: they forward the text, the email, even a photo of a handwritten sheet. The app reads it, matches it against your live availability and their pricing, and drafts the order for them to confirm. Their habit stays; your retyping goes.
9. Live delivery ETA and yard-count mode (exploring)
The problem(s): "where's my truck?" calls on delivery day, and clipboard weekends every time you count the yard.
The features: delivery tracking with arrival windows (plus weather-aware scheduling that flags at-risk loads), and a crew mode for updating counts by scanning tags as they walk the rows. Two more categories of phone call and paperwork, gone.
How features get on this list
Every item above started as a conversation with a nursery owner—usually a complaint, honestly. That's the model: partner nurseries tell us where the season hurts, we build the fix, and it rolls out to every app automatically at the same flat monthly fee. No upgrade invoices, no "premium tier."
The full list with current status lives on the roadmap page. And if one of these would change your spring—or you have a tenth one we should hear about—book a free consultation. The roadmap listens.
