ArborDiagnosis: On-Demand Mobile Arborist Network

A marketplace that connects homeowners with certified arborists for rapid, affordable in-person tree assessments within 24-48 hours. Arborists use a standardized diagnostic protocol (visual inspection + basic soil/bark sampling) to identify disease, pests, or stress, then provide a written treatment plan or removal recommendation. Homeowners book via app/web, pay per visit ($75–$150 depending on region), and arborists accept jobs flexibly to fill downtime between larger contracts.

SERVICE

36 weeks • 70% confidence

Value Proposition

Eliminates guesswork and expensive wrong treatments by delivering expert diagnosis in 1–2 days instead of weeks of forum searching or waiting for pricey full arborist audits. Arborists earn supplementary income without overhead. Homeowners avoid $500–$2000 removal costs for trees that could be saved, or catch hazards early.

Suburban homeowners and property managers with 1–5 trees showing visible decline; HOAs managing common areas; small commercial properties (offices, retail) with landscaping liability

Original Problem

Homeowners can't diagnose tree diseases and pest damage before trees die or become hazardous

Homeowners and property managers struggle to identify what's killing their trees—whether it's disease, pest infestation, nutrient deficiency, or environmental stress—and by the time they realize there's a problem, the tree is often beyond saving or poses a safety risk. Current solutions require hiring expensive arborists for in-person assessments, and generic online gardening forums provide inconsistent, unreliable advice that wastes time and money on wrong treatments.
