ROI Timeline and Business Impact

Landscape businesses implementing AR report ROI within 12-18 months through increased project wins. The technology particularly benefits proposals competing against multiple landscapers—AR presentations differentiate significantly, demonstrating professionalism and visualization capability that wins projects. Higher project values from confident client specifications typically generate 20-30% revenue increases.

Getting Started with AR Plant Placement

Begin with plant species you most commonly specify—typically 100-150 varieties covering trees, shrubs, perennials, and grasses for your region. This focused approach delivers immediate utility while keeping initial development manageable. Dagger Interactive provides AR plant placement solutions for landscape designers within SME budgets, creating visualization tools that win projects, increase values, and differentiate services through technology-enabled presentations that demonstrate finished garden quality before implementation.
