Lawn-care power tool with a lawn-care learning curve. Pricing verified July 2026.
Service Autopilot starts around $49/mo but its signature automations live in higher tiers with per-user fees and a paid onboarding. JobVivi ships automations to every plan and takes an afternoon to learn.
Service Autopilot has a devoted following among lawn-care companies that grew up with it. Its "automations" engine is famous in that world — and famously something you attend courses to master. The product is deep, the ceiling is high, and the setup is a project.
Pricing starts around $49/mo for the entry tier, but the automation engine that gives the product its name is an upgrade, users are charged per-seat on top, and onboarding has historically carried a signup fee. Total cost lands well north of the sticker for a team actually using the marquee features.
JobVivi's bet is that most service companies want the outcome of automations — estimates that follow up, invoices that send and remind on their own — without building flowcharts. Ours are switches, not projects: every JobVivi plan from $29 includes them, configured in minutes.
Service Autopilot figures reflect published pricing and reputable third-party pricing guides as of July 2026. JobVivi prices are the same everywhere: on this page, on the pricing page, and on your invoice.

Larger lawn and landscape companies ready to invest real setup time in deep automations.
Download your client list from Service Autopilot as a CSV and import it into JobVivi — names, addresses, phones, and emails come across.
Link QuickBooks Online, Google Calendar and Contacts, and your payment processor. Each takes a couple of minutes.
Estimate follow-ups, auto-invoicing, auto-sending, and payment reminders are switches, not setups.
Employee seats are $5/mo with the mobile app included — assigned jobs, clock-in/out, photos, and messaging.
Service Autopilot rewards the operator willing to become its power user. If you'd rather flip four switches and get back to the trucks, JobVivi's automations do the same daily work for $29–59/mo with nothing to study.
Considerably. Service Autopilot's automation engine is powerful but requires real configuration effort and lives in higher tiers. JobVivi's automations — estimate follow-ups, auto-invoicing, auto-sending, payment reminders — are simple toggles included in every paid plan.
Yes — recurring mowing schedules, route optimization across dense neighborhoods, crew tracking, and per-property service history are core JobVivi features used by landscaping businesses daily.
Chemical/application tracking for licensed applicators and very elaborate custom automation sequences. Large lawn companies with dedicated office staff can extract real value from that depth.
