For pool and outdoor-living contractors
Leads that have already seen the after.
Homeowners design the project in a photo of their own yard, then send it to up to 4 local pros. You get the yard, the design, the timeline and the typical cost of that project in the area before you call.
How leads work.
A homeowner designs in their own yard
They upload a photo of their backyard and try pools, pergolas, kitchens or landscaping until one feels right.
They publish the project
With the design they picked, their timeline and their ZIP code.
Up to 4 matched local pros get it
The project goes to up to 4 matched local pros. Never more than 4.
You call with the after in hand
You pay for the lead, not the job. Homeowner didn't reply after 48 hours, or the lead is a duplicate? Request a credit back within 7 days and we review it.

How much does a lead cost?
$150 for a new-pool lead; $85 for an outdoor kitchen, pergola or patio and pavers lead; $60 for a landscaping lead. No subscription and no commission on the job.
How many pros get the same lead?
4 at most. Homeowners send their project to up to 4 matched local pros, so you're never one of twenty.
What if the homeowner doesn't answer?
Homeowner didn't reply after 48 hours, or the lead is a duplicate? Request a credit back from your pro dashboard within 7 days of unlocking the lead, and we review it. Credit-backs aren't automatic.
Do I have to get verified before I receive requests?
No. Create your account, pick your services and ZIPs, and matching requests start reaching you right away. Homeowners may ask for your license and insurance, so keep them handy.
Where are you launching?
Across Florida, Georgia, the Carolinas, Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana. If you're outside that area, apply anyway and we'll tell you when we open there.
What is the founding-pro credit?
Pros who join in the founding group start with $300 in lead credit. We'll confirm the details with you when we reach out.
Is the design a construction plan?
No. It's an AI-generated concept of the homeowner's own yard that shows what they want. You measure, design and quote the real job.
