1. THE BEGINNING

This innovation initially came to life when…

Solar panel installation was a hot business to get into a few years ago. I was researching the market when I realised a-lot of time was wasted on physical site inspection to quote. At the same time I was using google maps’ satellite feature when it finally dawned on me. I didn’t even have to leave my office to quote. One day I was looking to replace my regular lawn mowing guy and after contacting a few companies, I was gobsmacked by the huge price variance and the fact no one was able to do the job then and there. Even the leading lawn mowing franchisees gave wildly different prices for exactly the same job.

2. WHAT & HOW

The purpose of this innovation is to…

Deliver upfront a fair and accurate price for lawn mowing -the industry operates currently in such a way that each job requires a site inspection, the quote is hugely variable. We combine this with on-demand technology making same day mowing possible.

It does this by…

Using satellite and aerial imagery that calculates the surface area that needs to be mowed – meaning you only pay for exactly what gets mowed. Our pricing algorithm takes into consideration total area, land slopes and grass height. Our algorithm incorporates a sliding scale that means larger properties do not pay the same rate as smaller properties, because there are certain upfront costs that are taken in to a count for each job.

3. PURPOSE & BENEFITS

This innovation improves on what came before because…

The traditional lawn mowing business model, in which the entire process is handled manually. The provider is in charge of bookings , scheduling, invoicing, chasing up payment. The provider also is required to conduct site inspections, which wastes time and money, and the quote is hugely variable and therefore, unfair.

Its various benefits to the customer/end-user include…

Users – The customer receives consistency; a streamlined booking process, and upfront guaranteed pricing! Also all payment is through the app, and all work is guaranteed.
