Blade & Bark

Blade & Bark is a field-operations platform for lawn care and tree service businesses. It gives owners and crews one clear place to manage estimates, scheduling, service execution, and customer follow-up.

Current status: Active pilot build. Early beta access is not open yet, but sign-up is open now.
Who It Serves

Built for owner-led service teams

Blade & Bark is designed for small teams that move fast and cannot afford missed details. It supports day-to-day operations now and leaves room to scale as your workflow grows.

  • Lawn care crews handling recurring and one-time service work
  • Tree service teams coordinating quotes, safety checks, and jobs
  • Growing operators who need structure without enterprise overhead
What It Solves

From scattered notes to controlled delivery

  • Quote and scope details split across calls, texts, and paper
  • Schedule updates that do not reach crews in time
  • Missed handoff between completed work and follow-up
  • No single owner view of what is booked, active, and completed
Core Modules
