Tree surgery
Software for UK tree-surgery businesses, from small domestic operators to multi-crew commercial contractors. The market spans tree-specific quoting and crew handoff, job management, and specialist safety/compliance systems for high-risk arboricultural work.
Three research passes converged on a compact specialist core: Arb Pro, ArbScribe and Treetask for UK contractor operations; ArboStar as the strongest UK-supported international specialist; and ClearCut/ArbHub for compliance-first arborist workflows. Broader trade and compliance platforms are retained as adjacent alternatives.

Pest control
Software for UK pest-control businesses, from solo reactive call-outs to multi-technician commercial contractors. Specialist systems combine scheduling and reporting with treatment history, chemical records, mapped monitoring points, customer portals and audit-ready evidence.
Three discovery passes and a targeted 2026-10-08 primary-source refresh support the stable UK-active specialist core, international enterprise comparison and bounded adjacent layer. Finite domestic treatment programmes remain distinct from persistent commercial site contracts and food/audit evidence workflows.
