  • Quoting per yard without measuring — you lose on the big jobs.
  • Monthly collections chased customer by customer.

saved per quote vs walking with a wheel

Satellite yard take-off with biomass pricing

Walking a 1/4-acre yard with a measuring wheel = 25-35 min plus writing on paper, calculating mulch yards + plant counts + sod sqft, taking to Excel, returning to customer next day. Customer already quoted with 2 faster competitors. Lose the job.

Olynx lets you trace the yard outline on satellite and split turf, edges, mulch beds, hardscape, drives — each with its own pricing. Mulch/soil cu yd with configurable depth + 1.10 waste. Sod rolls by brand (Bermuda, St. Augustine, Zoysia). Per-biomass-class tree pricing (1, 2, 3, 4-inch caliper). Access friction bumps labor +20-40% when truck reach > 50ft.

  • Separated areas: turf, edges, mulch beds, hardscape, drives
  • Mulch/soil cu yd with depth + 1.10 waste auto-applied
  • Sod rolls with per-brand coverage (Bermuda, St. Augustine, Zoysia)
  • Per-biomass-class tree pricing (1, 2, 3, 4-inch caliper)
  • Access friction (truck reach > 50ft) bumps labor +20-40%
  • Irrigation zones with emitter count + tubing LF
  • Retaining wall material count (block, base aggregate, cap)
Mrs. Wilson asks for full refresh: new beds + sod + 12 trees. Arrive 10:15 a.m. Olynx on phone, trace outline in 8 min: 4,200 sqft turf (Bermuda 419), 380 sqft mulch beds (2" depth = 2.3 cu yd), 12 trees (3-inch caliper = $185 each biomass class). Total $2,840. Mrs. Wilson signs from iPad in the kitchen 10:31 a.m.

yards/day with optimized routing

GPS-optimized routes + seasonal services

Monday 6:45 a.m. Crew A asks "which yard first?". Lose 45 min deciding, another 90 min in disorganized drive time (Frisco → Allen → Frisco again). Crew finishes 6:30 p.m. instead of 4:30. Lose 2 extra yards per day.

Olynx orders the route by GPS proximity at day-start. Auto-re-routes if rain cancels yards. Seasonal services auto-pause (snow removal pauses lawn from Nov-Feb). Crew-skill assignment (maintenance vs install vs tree care). Customer gets SMS: "arrived, done" with before/after photo.

  • Daily route auto-optimized by GPS proximity
  • Auto re-routing when rain cancels yards
  • Seasonal services: snow removal pauses lawn Nov-Feb
  • Crew-skill assignment (maintenance / install / tree care / irrigation)
  • Customer gets SMS with before/after photo per visit

callbacks from wrong service

Customer per yard — history, notes, plant inventory

New Crew B arrives at Mr. Tanaka's yard. Without knowing: they use weed trimmer near the $480 hydrangeas — cut them in half. Furious Mr. Tanaka demands 3-month refund ($468) + switches to competition. Total loss $6,200/yr.

Olynx saves on customer profile: private notes (gate code, dog name, special instructions), visual history with before/after photos per visit, equipment (irrigation make/model, controller location), plant inventory (trees, shrubs, perennials with plant care notes), service history (dethatching, fertilization, aeration dates).

  • Per-customer private notes (gate code, dog name, special instructions)
  • Visual history: before/after photos per visit
  • Equipment: irrigation system make/model, controller location
  • Plant inventory: trees, shrubs, perennials with care notes
  • Service history: dethatching, fertilization, aeration dates
  • Payment history + open balance visible at dispatch
Crew B arrives at Mr. Tanaka's yard. Opens Olynx on phone: "Friendly pitbull, call him Buddy before opening gate. Controller in left garage. ⚠️ DO NOT use weed trimmer near backyard hydrangeas — use hand shears." Crew follows instructions. Zero confusion, zero callback, Mr. Tanaka happy.

HOA contracts defended with GPS

Live Map + Crew Tracking

"Where's Crew B?" "Why is Crew A at 5 hrs on a 3-hr job?" You spend the day calling. Commercial customer (HOA $4,200/mo) asks "what time did you clean yesterday?" and you have no GPS proof — HOA cancels the contract.

Live real-time GPS map with each crew. Click pin → identity, current yard, time since clock-in. Live job costing: hours × rate vs job budget. GPS report exportable for HOAs and commercial customers. Alerts if crew is 30 min past ETA.

  • Live GPS map with pin per crew
  • Click pin → identity, yard, time since clock-in
  • Live job costing: hours × rate vs budget in real-time
  • GPS report exportable for HOAs and commercial customers

/wk saved on buddy-punching per crew

GPS Time Clock + offline Company Camera

Buddy-punching in landscape: one crew member clocks in for the other 2 from the truck = payroll inflated $600-$900/wk per crew. Customer claims "they didn't come Thursday" and you have no photo. On big rural yard with no signal everything is lost.

"Clock In" button → captures lat/lng + photo + timestamp + auto-assigns to active yard. OT detection >8hr/day. Company camera with timestamp + GPS + logo watermark. PowerSync = local SQLite on phone → everything works without signal and silently syncs.

  • Clock In with photo + GPS — buddy-punching impossible
  • Auto-assigns to active yard by GPS
  • OT detection >8hr/day or >40hr/wk
  • Company camera: timestamp + GPS + watermark + annotation
  • Auto before/after pairing per yard
  • PowerSync offline — local SQLite, silent sync
5-acre rural yard, no signal. Crew A clocks in 7:00 a.m. with photo + GPS. Documents 24 photos before (overgrown), during (mowing + trimming), after (manicured). Clocks out 11:42 a.m. (4h 42min × 3 crew = 14.1 man-hours). In the truck at 12:15 p.m. with signal — everything silently syncs.

margin on big jobs

Smart Estimate from yard photo

New estimator quotes a $14K install and has no idea how many hours a similar job took last year. Quotes on intuition — loses $3,200 margin or overcharges and loses the deal.

  • Vector search by yard photo across your job history
  • Top 3 most similar jobs with labor + materials + actual margin
  • Auto-populates estimate lines with historical quantities
  • Learns from every new job (improves over time)
  • Highlights differences: this job has 2 more trees, adjusts
