Stop running your crews from a group text.
Route & Retain replaces your 7 disconnected apps with one AI brain that schedules, routes, retains customers — and tells you which jobs actually make money.
Built for landscapers and cleaning companies running 2–12 crews. See profit per job, per crew, per customer — before the season ends, not after.
Operations Dashboard
Your whole day, ranked by what it pays you.
Not a job list. A profit list. Every stop scored on real labor minutes, drive time, and materials — so you see the money before the truck rolls.

Service programs
Built for the work you actually sell.
Mowing, cleanups, and seasonal programs all run through the same AI brain — each one scheduled around the real-world constraints that make or break the visit.
Mowing
Keep every property on its cadence — Route & Retain holds the rhythm even when the weather doesn't cooperate.
- Frequency-aware scheduling: every lawn stays on its cycle, with spacing that adjusts automatically after a disruption.
- Rain-smart rescheduling: a rained-out day moves to the next dry, open crew-day, not into limbo.
- Routes that pay: the AI fills each day by drive time and route, so crews cut more and drive less.
Lawn applications
Run every fertilizer, pre-emergent, and weed-control program by its window. Route & Retain schedules each step inside the dates it can actually be applied, so nothing slips and no product is wasted.
- Window-aware scheduling: see demand, supply, and days left; the system fills crew-days by route and drive time.
- Credentialed crews only: licensed applicators get the work automatically.
- Nothing misses the window: incomplete visits reschedule before the window closes, and customers get their required 24-hour heads-up.
Cleanups
Spring and fall cleanups are deadline work — Route & Retain makes sure they surface and get slotted before the season moves on.
- Deadline-aware: seasonal cleanups sort by due date so none get buried under routine work.
- Fills open capacity: the AI drops them into the crew-days that have room, by route.
- Weather-smart: reschedules around wet or unworkable days on its own.
7 tools → 1 brain
The 6am scheduling spreadsheet dies today.
You’re not short on software. You’re short on one system that knows what a job costs, where the truck is, and whether the customer is still happy. Route & Retain is that one system.

Contract revenue you don't re-sell next spring
One login. One source of truth. One number that matters — the profit on every job.
The AI Brain
Three pillars. One business brain.
Most software runs your routes. Route & Retain runs your operation, your books, and your customer base — and puts a dollar figure on all three.
Operations
Every crew, every stop, handled before 6am.
AI builds the day's schedule, sequences the stops, and re-routes live when traffic or a slow job blows up the plan. Crew telemetry tells you who's on which property and whether they're ahead or behind.
Cuts drive time and fuel — typically 15–22% fewer paid windshield hours per truck.
Business
Finally know which jobs actually make you money.
Route & Retain prices out every job against real labor minutes, drive time, and materials — then shows you profit per job, per crew, and per customer. Unbilled work, underpriced accounts, and margin leaks surface automatically instead of showing up in your P&L in January.
Owners routinely find 5–15% of revenue sitting in unbilled or underpriced work in the first 90 days.
Customers
Keep the accounts you already paid to win.
The AI watches for the quiet warning signs — missed follow-ups, service gaps, complaints that never got closed out — and launches recovery outreach in your voice before the customer calls somebody else.
Every saved account is contract revenue you don't have to re-sell next spring.
Day built before you finished coffee
42 routes, 186 stops sequenced and dispatched. 6.1 drive hours trimmed off today's plan.

Two nearby add-on jobs worth $480 auto-suggested. Owner approved in 1 tap — same-day revenue.
Head to head
Why Route & Retain vs. ServiceTitan & Housecall Pro.
Both of those tools are real software built by real teams. Neither one was built for a 2–12 crew operation that needs to know its margin today.
