Step 1 · At the customer's house

Take notes on the fly

Pull up the app in the driveway. Snap photos of the overgrown yard, jot down what the customer wants — "clear all the brush, haul it, grade it out and drop fresh topsoil." Everything saves as you type.

Common questions

What is Outdoor Estimates?+

Outdoor Estimates is an all-in-one platform for landscape and hardscape contractors. It includes AI-powered project estimating, customer-ready proposals, contracts with e-signature, professional invoices, a 2D/3D landscape design tool, and an AI photo-render feature that turns a description and a yard photo into a finished design. Homeowners can use the design tools for free and get matched with a vetted local contractor.

Is the AI landscape design tool really free?+

Yes, completely free for homeowners. Upload a photo of your yard, type what you want, and the AI renders a photorealistic image of the finished project. Learn more about AI landscape design.

What kind of projects can I price with the estimating software?+

Paver patios, walkways, paver driveways, retaining walls, sitting walls, garden walls, steps, fire pits, fire pit kits, mulch beds, rock beds, sod and seed installations, hydroseed, French drains, drainage projects, grading and excavation, demolition and disposal, concrete, blacktop / asphalt, and water features. The estimating engine handles all of it. See the full list.

How much does a paver patio actually cost?+

A typical paver patio runs $22-$45 per square foot installed in the US. Our free paver patio cost calculator gives you an instant breakdown for your specific dimensions, paver type, base depth, and labor market.

Does the AI render use my actual yard photo?+

Yes. The AI uses image-to-image generation, so it edits your photo rather than drawing a generic landscape. Your house, fences, neighbors, sky, and trees stay exactly as they are — only the yard area gets the new project rendered onto it.

Is this better than HomeAdvisor or Angi for finding contractors?+

For outdoor projects specifically, yes — because you can show the contractor exactly what you want with the AI design or 2D/3D plan before you ever talk to them. That cuts misunderstandings, revision rounds, and wasted site visits dramatically.

Trusted by crews across the country

Real feedback from contractors who switched to Outdoor Estimates.

★★★★★
"I used to spend an hour on every estimate. Now I describe the job, tweak a few numbers, and send it out in 10 minutes. This thing pays for itself on the first job every month."
MR
Mike Rossi Rossi Hardscapes — Raleigh, NC
★★★★★
"The design tool is a game-changer. I showed a client the 2D layout on my phone at the job site and they signed the contract on the spot."
JT
Jamie Torres GreenLine Landscapes — Austin, TX
★★★★★
"We are a 5-man crew and none of us are tech guys. This was easy to set up, the proposals look professional, and clients take us more seriously now."
