Why ArborBid Exists

The Slowest Bidder Loses the Job.

Most tree companies are losing work not because of price — but because of how long it takes to get a proposal in front of the customer.

🕐

Proposals Written at 9pm

You spend the last hour of your day at the kitchen table writing estimates instead of being with your family. Three jobs backed up, notes in your pocket, customers waiting since Tuesday.

📝

Notepads and Spreadsheets

Generic Word docs, handwritten numbers, inconsistent pricing — none of it looks professional and none of it includes the liability language your business actually needs on paper.

⚠️

No Risk Documentation

Tree work is inherently risky. When something goes wrong and there's nothing in writing about the hazards you identified on site, that's a problem for you — not just the customer.

How It Works

Job Notes In. Proposal Out.

ArborBid handles the write-up so you can stay focused on the work.

1

Describe the Job

Type or speak your job notes — species, height, access, hazards, equipment needed. Plain language is fine. ArborBid understands tree work.

2

Review & Edit

ArborBid builds the line-item breakdown. Every field is inline-editable — adjust prices, add notes, or remove items before it goes out.

3

Addendum Added

The Tree Risk Addendum is automatically included on Page 2. It can't be skipped — protecting you and documenting every hazard identified on site.

4

Send & Get Paid

Text or email the proposal with e-sign and deposit links built in. Customer signs before you're back on the road. Follow-up reminders go out automatically.

What's Inside

Everything a Tree Company Needs to Close More Jobs

No bloated CRM. No features you'll never use. Just the tools that matter on a job site.

🎙️

Voice-to-Proposal

Speak your job notes from the truck. ArborBid converts spoken descriptions of tree work into structured line items — no typing required.

Inline Editing

Every field in the proposal is contenteditable — click any number, description, or line item and change it on the spot before sending.

⚠️

Mandatory Risk Addendum

Page 2 of every proposal is a Tree Risk Addendum documenting site hazards. It cannot be removed or skipped — it's built into every PDF.

📄

Branded PDF Output

Your logo, colors, and business info on every proposal. Looks like it came from a real company — because it does.

Review Checkpoint

A mandatory review checkbox before the PDF downloads — so nothing goes out before you've looked it over.

🔔

Follow-Up Reminders

Automated 4-day follow-up banners remind you to check in on open proposals so no job slips through the cracks.

Built-In Protection

Every Proposal Includes a Tree Risk Addendum. No Exceptions.

Tree work involves documented risk. A falling limb, a root system near a foundation, a tree leaning over a structure — these aren't surprises to you, but they need to be in writing before any work begins.

ArborBid automatically generates Page 2 of every proposal as a Tree Risk Addendum. It documents the hazards identified on site, in writing, with your signature and the customer's acknowledgment. It cannot be deleted, skipped, or turned off.

  • Site hazards documented at the time of estimate
  • Risk level assigned to each identified condition
  • Customer acknowledgment required before work begins
  • Included on every PDF — no option to remove it

Common Questions

Questions About ArborBid™

Does it work if I'm not good at typing?
Yes. The voice-to-proposal feature lets you speak your job notes out loud — the same way you'd describe the job to a crew member. ArborBid understands tree work terminology and builds the line items from your spoken description.
Can I edit the proposal before it goes out?
Every field is inline-editable. Click any price, description, or line item and change it directly. There's also a mandatory review checkbox before the PDF downloads — nothing leaves without you looking at it first.
What exactly is in the Tree Risk Addendum?
Page 2 of every proposal documents the hazards identified on-site — decay, lean, proximity to structures, root systems — with a risk level assigned to each. The customer acknowledges and signs it before work begins. It cannot be removed from the proposal.
How does the founding member pricing work?
The first 20 customers who sign up lock in $27/month for life. That rate never increases regardless of what the standard pricing moves to. Once those 20 spots are claimed, the founding tier closes permanently.
Does this work for any tree service or only specific ones?
ArborBid is built specifically for tree service companies — removals, trimming, stump grinding, crane work, emergency response, lot clearing. It's calibrated for tree work terminology and won't produce reliable results for other trades.
What happens after I send the proposal?
The customer receives a link to review, e-sign, and pay a deposit — all in one step. If they don't respond within 4 days, ArborBid shows you a follow-up reminder so no open proposal gets forgotten.
