Sow for professionals

A Landscape Design App That Works in the Field

Design software that only runs on a desktop is design software you use at night, after the day's work. Sow runs on the phone in your pocket, at the site, while the client is standing next to you.

Sell it in the driveway

Photograph the yard, generate options while the client watches, adjust what they react to, and send the proposal before you get back in the truck. The gap between the pitch and the paperwork is where jobs get lost.

Pick up on the web

The same project opens on desktop, so the polished proposal and presentation can be built later without redoing the design.

What you can hand a client

Client brief

Capture the site, the budget, the style, and what the client actually asked for — in one shared place instead of a text thread.

Proposal

Turn a design into a proposal with the plant schedule already filled in from the plants you placed. Export a branded PDF.

Presentation

Walk a client through the design with plant detail they can see and understand, then leave them a PDF that still makes sense a week later.

Planting plan

A real plan with correct spacing and mature sizes — not a mood board. Export it or hand it to whoever installs it.

All included in Pro+ ($99.99/yr), with branded PDF export throughout.

Capture it on site. It is already on your desk.

Everything you do in the field lands in your dashboard the moment you do it. The photos you take at the walkthrough, the designs you generate in the driveway, the plants you save, the ideas you scribble down between jobs, the boards you shared with the client — all of it is on the bigger screen when you get back, ready to refine.

Shoot now, design later

Photograph the site while you are standing in it. The photos are waiting on the desktop, attached to the right project, when you have time to work them up properly.

Rough it in the driveway, refine it at the desk

Generate a concept while the client is watching, then open the same design on a large screen to place plants precisely, adjust spacing, and get the palette right.

One project, both screens

There is no export step and no second copy. The phone and the web studio are the same project — whichever you touch last is simply the current one.

Share from wherever you are

Send a board to a client from the truck or from the office. What they see is the latest version either way.

The plant data behind every design

You do not have to take our word for the catalog — it is published. Over 11,000 outdoor species with hardiness, mature size, bloom timing, and prices we re-check daily against the nurseries we track.

Questions from professionals

What does Sow Pro+ cost?

$99.99 a year ($29.99/month) — the whole professional toolkit, including the client tools: boards, briefs, proposals, presentations, and version-bound approvals.

Can I start on my phone and finish on my desktop?

Yes, and that is the normal way to work. Photograph and design the site on your phone while you are standing in the yard; the photos, designs, saved plants and shared boards are already in your desktop dashboard when you sit down. Same project, bigger screen — no export step.

Do clients need to install anything?

No. Client boards open in a browser from a link — the client reads the proposal, comments, and approves a version without installing an app.

Does Sow handle invoicing, scheduling, or job costing?

No. Sow covers design through client sign-off. It does not do invoicing and job costing, crew scheduling and dispatch, a full crm, irrigation or hardscape cad engineering — it is built to sit alongside whatever you already run the business on.
