Run your landscaping business from your pocket โ€” no internet, no login, no monthly cloud fees. CanteraPro is built for solo landscapers and small crews who are tired of software that's overbuilt, overpriced, and useless the moment you lose signal in a backyard with no bars. Everything lives on your phone. No account to create, no cloud sync, no server to go down. Your client list is yours โ€” nobody else's business. FULLY BILINGUAL, ALWAYS FREE Switch between English and Spanish anytime, on any screen, at no cost โ€” ever. Built for crews where English isn't always the first language, because a business tool should work for the people actually doing the work. EVERYTHING YOU NEED, BUILT FOR THE TRUCK, NOT THE OFFICE Clients โ€” full contact history, linked to every job, estimate, and invoice Jobs โ€” status tracking, before/during/after photos, notes, materials used Estimates โ€” line items, tax & discounts, PDF export, email/text send, one-tap convert to invoice Invoices โ€” payment tracking, digital signature capture, PDF export, email/text send Schedule & Route Planner โ€” calendar view of your day, smart routing between jobs Time Clock โ€” clock in/out per job with notes Maintenance Accounts โ€” recurring clients with automatic overdue alerts Product Application Log โ€” chemical/fertilizer tracking with due-date reminders Material Calculator โ€” cubic yards for mulch, topsoil, gravel, DG, sand, and more, with waste buffer and cost estimate Job Reminders โ€” daily "today's jobs" digest, plus per-job and due-date notifications Mileage Log โ€” automatic business mileage tracking; view free, export a tax-ready IRS report with Pro Job Profitability Report (Pro) โ€” see real profit and margin per job, not guesswork Encrypted Backup & Restore โ€” free for everyone, protect your entire client list and photos with a password-protected local backup; Pro adds automatic weekly backups PRICING Free โ€” up to 10 clients, jobs, estimates, and invoices, full features at that scale. English/Spanish always free, no matter your tier. Pro โ€” $14.99/month โ€” everything unlimited, plus mileage tax export, profitability reports, and automatic backups. Founding Member Lifetime โ€” one-time payment, everything Pro includes, forever. The first 1,000 spots are $199; the next 1,000 are $249. Once 2,000 are claimed, lifetime pricing is gone for good and only the monthly plan remains. WHY I BUILT THIS I work at a rock yard, serving landscapers with materials every single day. Watching solo operators and small crews come through taught me exactly what they needed: a way to run their business that doesn't cost a fortune, doesn't demand a subscription just to write an invoice, and doesn't assume everyone speaks English fluently. A lot of the hardest-working people in this trade are part of the Hispanic community and still learning English โ€” and most landscaping software simply ignores that. CanteraPro was built to close that gap: fairly priced, genuinely bilingual, and built by someone who sees this community's work ethic firsthand, every day.
