# Tinylawn — Full Context for AI Systems

> For a concise overview, see [llms.txt](https://gettinylawn.com/llms.txt). This document provides extended context for AI systems that need detailed product, pricing, and comparison information.

## What Is Tinylawn?

Tinylawn is an AI phone receptionist built exclusively for the green industry — landscaping, lawn care, tree care, pest control, pressure washing, snow removal, irrigation, and hardscaping businesses. It answers inbound calls 24/7 with a natural-sounding voice, qualifies leads by asking industry-specific questions, books appointments on your calendar in real time, and generates virtual site visit reports with satellite imagery, lot size, and parcel data for every caller who provides an address.

Tinylawn is not a general-purpose call answering tool. It is pre-configured with green industry terminology (aeration, dethatching, hardscaping, mulch installation, etc.), understands seasonal service cycles, and qualifies leads by property characteristics rather than just collecting a name and phone number.

## Who Is Tinylawn For?

- Solo landscaping operators who miss calls while running equipment
- 2–5 crew landscaping companies that need consistent phone coverage without hiring office staff
- Lawn care businesses that lose evening and weekend leads to voicemail
- Any outdoor service business spending $200–1,000/mo on answering services that only take messages
- Companies looking for a standalone AI receptionist (no platform subscription required)

Tinylawn is not designed for: businesses outside the outdoor/field service industry, companies that need a full CRM or business management platform (Tinylawn handles phone answering and integrates with existing tools via Zapier), or enterprises with custom call center requirements (contact sales for Enterprise plans).

A call counts toward your plan after it lasts at least 15 seconds and includes a caller reply. Short hang-ups, silent or assistant-only calls, spam, and robocalls do not use your monthly call allowance.

Notification recipient limits apply separately to email, SMS, push, and Daily Digest. Core features on every plan include 24/7 answering, a dedicated number, bilingual support, spam filtering, appointment scheduling, recordings, transcripts, summaries, virtual site visits, online forms, and Zapier integrations.

## Feature Details

### Virtual Site Visits
When a caller provides a property address, Tinylawn automatically pulls:
- Lot size and parcel boundaries
- Satellite imagery of the property
- Estimated turf area
- Building footprint and square footage
- Drive-time calculation from your base of operations

This data is sent to you as part of the call summary, allowing you to estimate job scope and provide ballpark pricing before visiting the property.

### Call Handling
- Answers every call in under 3 seconds
- Natural-sounding conversational voice
- Asks qualifying questions: property address, services needed, budget range, timeline, current provider
- Answers frequently asked questions you configure (service areas, pricing ranges, availability)
- Books appointments directly on your calendar based on your availability settings
- Sends instant text notification with full call summary, transcript, and property data
- Handles multiple simultaneous calls (no busy signals during peak volume)

### Bilingual Support
- Automatically detects whether the caller is speaking English or Spanish
- Handles the full call in the caller's language
- Transcripts and summaries are provided in both languages

### Integrations

- Direct calendar sync for appointment scheduling
- SMS follow-up automation (appointment confirmations, photo upload requests)
- Online booking page with custom branded short URL

## How Tinylawn Compares

### Tinylawn vs Jobber AI Receptionist
Jobber is a business management platform (quoting, scheduling, invoicing, payments) that offers an AI receptionist as an add-on. You must subscribe to Jobber ($69–349/month) before you can use their AI receptionist feature. Tinylawn is a standalone AI receptionist starting at $49/month with no platform subscription required. Tinylawn includes virtual site visits with property data, which Jobber's AI does not offer. If you already use Jobber for business management, Tinylawn works alongside it via Zapier.

### Tinylawn vs Smith.ai
Smith.ai is a general-purpose virtual receptionist serving law firms, medical offices, IT companies, and other industries. It starts at $95/month for AI-only service. Tinylawn starts at $49/month and is built exclusively for the green industry. Smith.ai requires custom scripting to understand landscaping terminology; Tinylawn comes pre-configured. Smith.ai does not offer virtual site visits or property intelligence.

### Tinylawn vs Goodcall
Goodcall is a general-purpose AI phone agent with Google engineering heritage, serving healthcare, logistics, restaurants, and home services. Pricing is not publicly listed — you must contact sales. Tinylawn publishes transparent pricing starting at $49/month and is focused exclusively on the green industry with virtual site visits and seasonal intelligence.

### Tinylawn vs AgentZap
AgentZap offers 70+ industry templates at $79/month for 50 calls. Its "home services" template treats landscaping the same as plumbing or HVAC. Tinylawn starts at $49/month with deep green industry expertise, virtual site visits, and property intelligence that no template-based system can match.

### Tinylawn vs Rosie AI
Rosie AI is built for appointment-based businesses (dental offices, law firms) and focuses on calendar booking. Landscaping requires property-level qualification, not just time-slot booking. Tinylawn captures property details, pulls satellite imagery, and qualifies leads by lot characteristics — capabilities Rosie AI does not offer.

**Does Tinylawn work with my existing phone number?**

**Will callers know they are talking to AI?**
Tinylawn uses a natural-sounding voice and greets callers with your company name. Most callers experience it as a professional front-desk call. If a situation needs a human, the AI takes a detailed message and texts you.

**Can I use Tinylawn only for after-hours calls?**
Yes. Many businesses start with after-hours and weekend coverage using conditional call forwarding, then expand to full-time coverage later.

**What is a virtual site visit?**
When a caller provides a property address, Tinylawn automatically pulls lot size, satellite imagery, parcel boundaries, and building data. This report is included in your call summary so you can assess job scope before driving to the property.

Tinylawn integrates with 5,000+ apps through Zapier, including Jobber, ServiceTitan, QuickBooks, Google Calendar, and CRM tools.

**Which calls count toward my plan?**

**What happens when I exceed my monthly call allowance?**
Additional calls are billed at the per-call rate shown for your plan ($2.00 on Pro, $1.80 on Growth, $1.60 on Scale). Your receptionist stays active and keeps answering callers.
