Pricing questions

What's free and what's Pro?

Homeowners and arborists get the cost estimator, the tree-check AI, the species and pest libraries, directory search, a free business listing, the job board, talent listings, the newsletter and basic calculators — all free. Tree Nerd Pro adds the guided risk assessment and reports, CEU tracking, the pro jobsite calculators, saved history, lead priority and the verified Pro badge.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. Monthly cancels anytime from your account. Annual runs for the year you paid for and then renews unless you cancel. You keep access until the period you paid for ends.

Do I need Pro to be in the directory or get leads?

No. Claiming or creating your directory profile and receiving homeowner inquiries are free. Pro adds the verified Pro badge and lead priority — you're offered local jobs ahead of free listings. Featured placement is a separate optional add-on.

Is the Academy course included?

No. The treenerdacademy.com course is a separate one-time purchase and is never bundled into Pro. Tree Nerd Pro is the standalone subscription for the field tools and CEU tracking.

How do I pay?

By card through Stripe. You can manage your card, switch monthly/annual or cancel from the billing portal in your account.
