General

What is CoreScape?

Software for companies that run field crews. It comes as three apps: TerraCore for landscape construction, GroundCore for grounds maintenance and snow, and ArborCore for tree care. Each has an office side and a crew app.

Do we have to take all three apps?

No. Each app works on its own. Start with the one for the work you do most, and add another later. Your people and their login are already there when you do.

What does it cost?

One monthly price by team size, in Canadian dollars: $249 for up to 10 people, $349 for up to 25, and $449 for up to 75. Larger teams get their own price. Every feature is included. A second or third app is $75 a month more each.

Is there a setup fee or a contract?

No setup fee and no annual contract. It is month to month, with 30 days' notice to stop.

How do we get started?

Book a demo and bring a real route, quote or week. If it fits, we create your workspace and load your clients and sites from a spreadsheet. Your crews then sign in from a link.

What do our crews need?

A phone with a web browser. They open a link, add CoreScape to their home screen and sign in. There is no app store step, and it is the same login as the office.

Does it work without signal?

GroundCore crews can finish a stop with no signal and it syncs later. TerraCore and ArborCore crews need a signal today.

Who owns our data, and where is it kept?

You do. Every company has its own separate database, hosted in Canada. You can export your main records at any time and ask for a full copy when you leave.

Does it track where our people are?

Not continuously. It records one location point when someone clocks in or out, and when a crew arrives at or finishes a site. If a person declines location, that is recorded and they can still work.

What does the AI do?

It writes drafts for a person to check: a site walkthrough report from your voice and photos, replies to client emails, and material lines from a supplier receipt. Nothing it writes goes to a client until someone on your team sends it.

Does it connect to our accounting software or take payments?

Not yet. Hours export as a payroll spreadsheet, and ArborCore issues invoices you mark as paid. Accounting sync and online payments are planned.

How do we get help?

Call 613 790 4530 or write to team@corescape.app. You talk to the people who build it.

Pricing

Who counts toward the team size?

Everyone who uses it, in the office and on the crews.

We hire up every spring. What happens?

You move up a band for the months you need it, and back down when the season ends. Month to month works both ways.

Can we start with one app and add more later?

Yes. Each app works on its own. When you add another, your people and their login are already there.

What if we have more than 75 people?

Talk to us. Larger teams get a price that fits their size, with every feature included like everyone else.

What isn't in it yet?

Online payments and accounting sync. In ArborCore, invoices are sent as a link and marked paid when the money arrives.

TerraCore

Does it replace our estimating spreadsheet?

Yes. Estimates are built from your own catalog of materials and labour, with your markup. The client approves and signs online, and an accepted estimate becomes the project.

Do we have to use the AI features?

No. The walkthrough report, email drafts and receipt reader are there if you want them, and a person checks everything before it reaches a client. We can switch them off for your company.

Can we show a client what was done on their project?

Yes. The project record is one PDF: the estimate they approved online and when, every day worked with who clocked in and out and where, change orders, materials and photos. Download it, or send it to the client from the app: you see the whole email before it goes.

Can clients pay through it?

Not yet. TerraCore records deposits and payments against a job, but it doesn't issue invoices or take cards. Invoicing is next on the list for TerraCore.

Does it connect to our accounting software?

Not yet. Hours export as a payroll spreadsheet for each pay period. Accounting sync is planned.

Does the crew side work without signal?

Partly. Clocking in and out works without signal: it is kept on the phone and sent with the right times when there is signal again, and the job shows what it last loaded. Adding photos and materials needs a signal.

How do our crews get it?

They open a link, add it to their home screen and sign in. There is no app store step, and it is the same login as the office.

GroundCore

How big can a route be?

Routes of more than 100 stops run on it today. One route can be split across two or three crews, each with its own order.

Does Optimize use real roads?

Yes. Stops are ordered by real drive time, not straight lines. On a route that has started, it re-plans only the stops still left, from where the crew is.

Does it work without signal?

Yes. A crew can tick the checklist, take the photos and finish a stop in a dead zone. It syncs when the phone finds signal.

Is it ready for snow?

Winter routes, the storm board, ground conditions and salt tracking are built. This winter is their first season in daily use.

Do our clients get updates or reports?

Not automatically. For any site you can make a service report, a PDF with every visit's times, phone positions, checklist, weather and photos, and for any route a spreadsheet of every stop. Download the report, or send it to the client from the app: you see the whole email before it goes.

Can you bring over our sites and routes?

Yes. Send us your clients and sites as a spreadsheet and we load them when we set you up.

ArborCore

How new is ArborCore?

It is the newest CoreScape app. It was shaped with a working tree-care team and tested end to end, and that team is moving onto it now.

Does it text our clients?

Yes. The on-my-way message with an ETA, quote links, booking confirmations and visit reminders go out as texts, from your company's own number.

Can a crew skip the tailboard?

No. Start work stays locked until the tailboard is completed and signed. If the site changes, it can be reopened, and every reopen is logged.

Can we prove what was done on a job?

Yes. The job record is one PDF: when the crew set off and started, where their phones were, the tailboard signed on site, the work done and photos from before and after. Download it, or send it to the client from the app: you see the whole email before it goes.

Can clients pay online?

Not yet. The invoice opens from a link, and you mark it paid when the e-transfer, cheque, card or cash arrives.

Does it connect to our accounting software?

Not yet. Invoices keep your existing numbering so your books stay in step. Accounting sync is planned.

Where does the request form live?

At your own CoreScape address, under your company's name. You link to it from your website.
