Your free month

It fits, because somebody makes it fit.

Tell us how you run things. We build the rest.

  • First

    Start the free month

    Your email and your business name. That is the whole signup. 1 month free. No card.

  • Then

    Write to us in the app

    Talk to Anda is a screen in the app, and a real person reads it. Say what is missing, how you colour your calendar, which screens you never use. Several of the screens on this page began as one customer writing to say what she was missing.

    Rather not start with an empty calendar? Send your client list, a spreadsheet, or a photo of your paper diary to contact@tendmatehq.com, and we set it up for you before you log in. Included in the price.

  • By the end

    An app that fits your business

    What you ask for gets built, free, and it arrives for everyone. Your job types, your colours, only the screens you use. $9 a month after, you and up to four helpers included.

One price. That is the whole pricing page.

Already in another app, or in a spreadsheet?

Before you start

Questions people ask

Does it text or email my clients?

Not yet, and if you want it, ask: a feature a customer asks for gets built, and it is free. Emails to your clients would cost you nothing. Text messages would be a small package, because the SMS providers charge for every message sent, not us. Today TendMate keeps the schedule and the records, and you message your clients the way you already do. For somebody who asked for a price it keeps the message you sent and what they replied.

Can my clients book online?

Not yet. Your work is the same clients coming round again and again, so the calendar fills itself in from how often each one is due, and a new enquiry is written down as a lead with the day to come back to them. If your clients want to book themselves, say so: a calendar you share with your free days, where a client picks one, is the kind of thing we build for the person who asks, at no extra cost. We will work out together what suits your business best.

What does a helper see?

The schedule, the addresses and the notes for the work she is sent to, on her own phone. Not your prices, your expenses or your totals. You choose, screen by screen, what each helper can open.

What if I have more than four helpers?

Contact us. Extra seats are $1 a month each, and we add them for you. Tell us how you run them too: if you want them in teams, or there is something that would make managing them easier, that is exactly the kind of thing we build for you, free.

Does it work without signal?

Yes. Everything you need is on the phone already, and it catches up when you are back in range.

I already have a spreadsheet, or another app. What happens to it?

Send it to us: a spreadsheet, a CSV, an export from another app, or a photo of your paper diary. We bring your clients, your schedule and your history across before you log in, and that is included in the price.

What happens after the free month?

$9 a month, flat, for you and up to four helpers. No card is taken during the month, so nothing is charged unless you choose to carry on. Cancel any time and export everything, clients, visits and history, in one click.

Your round is a notebook and a good memory.

There is free software for lawn care, and there is software that charges for every extra person. What there is very little of is something small enough to set up in an afternoon that still knows who is due.

So the round lives in a notebook — and when the season turns and half of it goes from weekly to monthly, it lives in your head. That is the whole problem we are solving.

Today, and after

Why most rounds fall apart when the season turns

  • The next date

    On the spreadsheet

    Nearly every round we have seen is written down as the next visit. That works until the rain takes a week out, one garden goes to every ten days, and half the round drops to monthly in October. Now every date after that is wrong, and the round has to be written out again.

    In TendMate

    The fix is small and it changes everything: record the last cut, not the next one. The last cut is a fact — it either happened or it did not. The next one is arithmetic:

    Next due = Last cut + Frequency (in days)

    Weekly = 7 · Every ten days = 10 · Fortnightly = 14 · Monthly = 30

    Lose a week to weather, change one garden's interval for the winter — you only ever update one thing, and every date after it corrects itself. That is the whole trick, and it is what TendMate is built around.

What you get

  • Weekly in summer, monthly in winter

    Say how often each garden is cut and the visits place themselves on the calendar. A season can change the interval without you re-entering the round twice a year.

  • You and your helpers, flat

    $9/month covers you and up to four helpers. More helpers are $1 a month each. No cap on customers or visits. A helper sees the round — the addresses, the gate codes, the notes — and not your prices or your totals.

  • Nobody gets missed

    Overdue and due-soon are surfaced before they bite, and the window is tuned to how often each garden comes round — so a weekly customer is not permanently flagged as due.

  • It works at the far end of the round

    Everything you need is on the phone already, so a lane with no signal is not a problem. It catches up on the way back.

  • Your data stays yours

    Export everything — customers, visits, history — in one click, any time. No contract, cancel whenever, and take your data with you.

Built for you if…

  • You cut the same gardens on a repeating round.
  • Half your customers change frequency when the season turns, and you would rather not redo the schedule for it.
  • You have taken on a second person and need to share the round without sharing what you charge.
  • You want the day's list on your phone, in order, before you set off.
  • You want something genuinely simple — not “simple” with forty settings.
