Price, users, contract terms, and lawn care features, including where Service Autopilot comes out ahead. Every Service Autopilot fact here comes from its own pricing page and terms of service.
The short answer: both are built with lawn care in mind, and both handle treatment programs, chemical tracking, level billing, and price-by-size quoting. LawnPro costs far less for a crew, includes more logins, and has no sign-up fee or annual contract.
Service Autopilot is the better fit if you want its deep automation builder, run several locations, or need dedicated tools for snow, cleaning, or pest control alongside lawn care, and you're comfortable with an annual contract.
| LawnPro | Service Autopilot | |
|---|---|---|
| Entry plan | Free Solo, up to 25 customers | $49/mo + sign-up fee Startup: 1 office user, 1 mobile license |
| Small crew | $39/mo Startup, 3 employee logins | $199/mo + sign-up fee Pro: 1 office user, 2 mobile licenses |
| Growing crew | $129/mo Grow, 7 employee logins | $499/mo + sign-up fee Pro Plus: 1 office user, 5 mobile licenses |
| Larger crew | $249/mo Plus, 15 employee logins | Quote only Elite: 2 office users, 8 mobile licenses |
| Extra logins | $19/mo each | Not published |
| Billing | Monthly, or save 20% annually. Cancel any time. | Annual subscription rates |
Service Autopilot doesn't publish its sign-up fee or the price of extra licenses. A 7-person crew needs more mobile licenses than its $499 Pro Plus plan includes.
This is the biggest practical difference. Service Autopilot's terms of service say:
LawnPro has no long-term contracts. You can upgrade, downgrade, or cancel from your account settings at any time, and a cancelled paid plan stays active through the end of the billing period.
LawnPro's Grow plan includes 7 employee logins for $129/month, and each extra login is $19/month. Service Autopilot's plans include 1–2 office users and 1–8 mobile licenses, so the plan you need depends on how many people are in the field.
LawnPro's client portal is included on every plan, and 2-way texting is included on Plus and available as an add-on on other plans. On Service Autopilot, the client portal and 2-way texting are "call for pricing" add-ons below the Elite plan.
LawnPro's Grow plan includes automated review requests, a customer referral program, and pay for performance, which pays crews the higher of hourly or production pay. Service Autopilot's automations, which handle review requests, start on the $499 Pro Plus plan.
LawnPro has been independently owned since 2004 and answers the phone 7 days a week, 7am–7pm Central, from a US-based team. Service Autopilot is owned by Xplor Technologies, which was formed from payment processor Clearent.
Both handle the lawn care basics: multi-round treatment programs, chemical application tracking (Pro and up on Service Autopilot), level billing contracts, price-by-property-size quoting, route optimization, and a crew mobile app.
Choose LawnPro if you want lawn care tools at a price that fits a crew of 3–15, with every price published, no sign-up fee, and no annual contract.
Choose Service Autopilot if deep automation or multi-location management matters more than cost, and an annual contract with yearly price increases works for your business.
