Real Green alternative

Program-grade lawn care software, without the module maze.

Real Green is built for serious program-based lawn care, and it shows in both capability and complexity. Love aims at the same operator with a different bargain: one connected record, AI teammates doing the repetitive work, and configuration you can change yourself.

The short answer

Love is a Real Green alternative for program-based lawn care companies that want capability without a module stack and a dedicated internal admin. It handles multi-round fertilization and weed control programs, property measurements, density routing, prepay and autopay billing, collections, upsells, reviews, and referrals on one record, with AI teammates handling repetitive work under permissions you set.

Capability is not the complaint — cost of change is

Operators rarely leave Real Green because it cannot do something. They leave because doing something new takes a ticket, a specialist, or a project. When pricing, program structure, or crew organization changes faster than the software can be reconfigured, the operation starts working around its own system.

  • Changes to programs and pricing need someone trained in the platform
  • Capability lives across modules that each carry their own cost and setup
  • Reporting takes assembly rather than answering the question directly
  • New office hires take months to become productive

What Love keeps and what it drops

Love keeps the parts that make program lawn care work: measured properties, multi-round programs with timing windows, density-driven routing, prepay economics, and disciplined renewal and upsell motion. It drops the assumption that a person has to operate all of it manually.

  • Rounds timed to windows and conditions, not fixed calendar dates
  • Routing that re-optimizes across the week when weather or cancels hit
  • Billing teammate handling prepay, declined cards, and past-due follow-up
  • Reviews, referrals, and messaging native to the customer record

Reporting you can actually ask questions of

Density, cost per stop, callback and re-service rate, program mix, renewal rate, and prepay adoption are the numbers that run a lawn care company. Keeping the whole operation on one record is what makes those answerable without exporting to a spreadsheet.

What comes across

Customers, measured properties, programs and remaining rounds, service and application history, prepay balances, open invoices, and notes migrate with parity, and inconsistent program naming from years of growth gets normalized on the way in.

How switching works

Migration, step by step.

  1. 01

    Export or connect Real Green

    We work from an export or direct connection so your office does not rebuild the book by hand.

  2. 02

    Map the model

    Customers, measured properties, programs and rounds, application history, prepay balances, and invoices map field by field.

  3. 03

    Migrate and normalize

    Agents move records and normalize legacy program naming and duplicate properties.

  4. 04

    Parity check

    Active programs, remaining rounds, prepay balances, and open receivables are reconciled before go-live.

  5. 05

    Configure and go live

    Program structures, pricing, service areas, crew skills, and teammate permissions are set with your team.

Fit check

Who this is right for.

  • Changing a program or price is harder than it should be
  • You are paying for modules to get capability that should be core
  • Reporting requires assembly before it answers a question
  • Office headcount is scaling with route count
  • You want AI teammates doing follow-up work with approval limits

If you are running at a scale where your Real Green configuration and support relationship are load-bearing, do not move casually. Love is in early access; we would rather scope your real requirements than win a switch that strands you.

Frequently asked

Questions, answered.

Is Love enterprise-capable like Real Green?
Love targets the same program-based lawn care operator with a different architecture: one connected system with AI teammates rather than modules plus configuration specialists. In early access we scope fit honestly rather than claiming parity on every enterprise feature.
Can I migrate Real Green data?
Yes. Customers, measured properties, programs and remaining rounds, application history, prepay balances, invoices, and notes migrate with one-to-one parity and are reconciled before go-live.
Does Love handle property measurements?
Yes. Measurements live on the property record and feed pricing and program recommendations, so estimates are grounded in the actual lawn.
How does Love handle multi-round programs?
Programs are modeled as rounds with timing windows rather than fixed dates, so applications land in the right window for your market and conditions.
Can our team change pricing and programs ourselves?
Yes — that is a core design goal. Program structure, pricing, and teammate permissions are settings, not configuration projects.
What does Love cost?
Love is in early access and pricing is being finalized with the operators joining now.
