Plans & Tiers

ArborBuddy is an AI operations layer alongside your CRM — not a replacement for invoicing or contracts. We don’t charge per user seat; invite your whole team. We gate by crews and lead intakes (AI-powered imports).

Tier Overview

Trial (Sandbox)

Evaluating the product. Full board access, Magic Paste, Labs taste, and Auto-Dispatch preview.

Climber

Solo or small crew manual ops. Core dispatch, 3 crews max, Labs Preview only.

Foreman

Owner-operators pricing jobs. 10 crews, full Labs, voice + visual intake.

Autopilot

Shops ready for one-click dispatch. Unlimited crews, webhooks, full Auto-Dispatch apply.

Design Partner

First 100 design partners. Foreman-class ops plus webhook & Auto-Dispatch beta access. 100 lead intakes/mo. $499 year one, then $99/mo or $1,000/yr lock-in.

No Per-Seat Charges

Add as many office staff, dispatchers, or foremen as you need across all paid tiers. We don’t gate logins — we gate operational capacity.

Lead intake limits

Lead intakes are monthly AI-powered imports: Magic Paste, voice, CSV AI mapping, bulk parse, and webhook leads. Check usage on Settings → Billing (capacity meter + reset countdown).

Tier	Lead intakes / month
Trial (Sandbox)	3
Climber	10
Foreman	50
Autopilot	Unlimited
Design Partner	100

Voice and webhook leads count the same as pasted text. CSV column mapping and bulk parse also draw from this pool.
