Questions

How do I start a backyard design?

Decide what you want to use the yard for, take a daylight photo, and describe what you need. LandscapeGPT shows you a design in under a minute.

Will it change my house?

No. Only the landscape changes. The house, its colors and the camera angle stay exactly as they are in your photo.

Can I keep existing trees?

Yes. Mention them in the notes, such as “keep the maple on the left”.

Can I edit a design afterwards?

Yes. Edit by instruction lets you change one thing at a time and undo.

How much does LandscapeGPT cost?

$7.99 a week, $29.99 a month or $99 a year, with every tool included. Plans renew until you cancel; there's no free trial.
