Product updates and release notes

We ship constantly. Here's what landed lately — new features, improvements, and the occasional behind-the-scenes story about why we built it.

Latest highlights

Launch

One-click Stripe setup and Buy Now, Pay Later

Connect your Stripe account in one click — no API keys to copy — and optionally let customers split larger jobs with Klarna and Affirm.

Getting paid online used to mean copying Stripe API keys and a webhook secret into your settings. Now it is one button: click "Connect Stripe Account," finish Stripe's secure setup, and you can take card payments. Your money flows straight to your own Stripe account and bank — Lawnager never holds your funds.

You can also turn on Buy Now, Pay Later. Flip one toggle and Klarna and Affirm become options at checkout, so a customer can split a bigger job — a full mulch install, an irrigation repair, an annual plan — into payments while you still get paid up front. It is off by default; switch it on when it makes sense for your business.

Processing fees are set by Stripe and deducted from each payout — about 2.9% + 30¢ for cards, a little higher for Buy Now, Pay Later — and you can see your exact rates anytime in your Stripe dashboard. Lawnager adds no fee of its own.

Chemical application compliance log

Track every pesticide, herbicide, and fertilizer application with EPA reg #, applicator license, REI hours, and weather — built for state inspector audits.

Run a four-step fertilization program? Spray weed control? In most U.S. states, you're legally required to keep a per-application record with product, EPA reg number, rate applied, applicator license, and weather conditions. Until today, that meant paper logs or RealGreen.

Now it's a 3-tap check-out in the field app. When a crew finishes a service flagged with "Requires chemical log," the bottom sheet opens automatically. Pick the product (or tank-mix multiple), confirm the pre-filled rate, tap "Log & Complete." Customer notification fires, auto-invoice runs, and a full audit-grade record lands in your system — all in one motion.

Set up your product catalog (EPA reg numbers, REI hours, default rates) and applicator licenses (state, license #, categories, expiration) in Settings → Chemicals & Licenses. Flip the "Requires chemical log" toggle on any service that involves spraying.

Export inspector-ready records as print-friendly HTML or CSV — filterable by date, customer, applicator, or product. When you're ready to file with the state, "Submit to state" locks the records and produces the official audit copy. Locked records can't be edited or deleted, so what you hand to the state matches your system exactly.

Multi-property accounts for HOAs and property managers

One customer record can now own multiple service addresses — built for HOAs, commercial chains, and property management groups.

Until now, an HOA with 40 properties meant 40 separate customer records — duplicate contacts, duplicate billing, and a tangled mess on the dashboard. Today that changes.

When you turn on Multi-Property Accounts in Business Profile, every customer can hold a list of properties. Each property has its own address, lat/lng, lot size, gate codes, and average visit time. Jobs, quotes, schedules, and invoices all attach to a specific property — and the map, route optimizer, and crew app all know which one to drive to.

For residential customers, nothing changes. The picker only appears on customers with more than one property, so single-home accounts stay clean. And every existing customer was automatically given a primary property, so the upgrade was silent for the 173 customers already in the system on launch day.

This is Phase 1 of a deeper HOA / commercial buildout. Consolidated billing across properties (one invoice for the whole portfolio) is on the way next.

Everything else

New feature

Commercial billing: net terms, statements, and W-9 download

Commercial customers want net-30 invoices, sequential invoice numbers, and a downloadable W-9. Lawnager now handles all three.

New feature

Equipment maintenance tracking

Log hour meters, schedule oil changes and blade sharpenings, track repairs, and see when each mower is due for service. Built for ops who actually care about uptime.

Improvement

Per-invoice receipts and account-type chip in the customer portal

The customer portal got a meaningful upgrade alongside the commercial workflow release.

  • •Every paid invoice now has a downloadable receipt PDF — rendered in the customer's local timezone, not the pro's.
  • •Statement Download moved to the top of the portal, above the invoice list, where commercial customers actually look for it.
  • •Far-future scheduled jobs are hidden from the portal so customers don't see "scheduled for 2027" and get confused.
  • •Account-type chip (Residential / HOA / Commercial / Property Mgmt) shows on the customer profile so your team can triage at a glance.
New feature

Conversational onboarding assistant

The old fixed-step onboarding tour was replaced by a chat-driven assistant that adapts to who you are and what you've already done.

  • •NEPQ-style coaching language — asks what you need, doesn't lecture.
  • •Knows what page you're on and tailors guidance to mobile vs desktop UI vocabulary.
  • •Can directly update your profile, services, and website settings via tool calls — no copy-paste back and forth.
  • •Highlight overlays guide you to the exact UI element being discussed.
  • •Celebration toasts fire on real activation milestones (quote sent, quote accepted, invoice paid).
New feature

Customer self-scheduling

Customers can now request a service date themselves from the portal — you approve or counter-propose. Cuts out the "what day works for you" SMS thread.

  • •Tier A: customer picks a window, you accept or suggest an alternative.
  • •Available windows respect your route days and existing schedule load.
  • •Auto-rejects dates outside your service area or service hours.
Improvement

New signups can now opt into a fully-seeded demo workspace — 38 sample customers, real jobs, quotes, and invoices — to explore the product before adding real data. Wipe it with one click when you're ready to start for real.

Improvement

Founder welcome email

Every new signup now gets a personal note from the founder within minutes of signup — with a direct reply path. Real conversations, not no-reply boilerplate.

Customer loyalty program

Pro-tier customers can run a points-and-rewards loyalty program in their own portal — points per service, redeemable rewards, care plans, and price locks. Branded with your business identity, not Lawnager's.
