Plant Health Care Software
Most "PHC" software is a landing page and a line item on the invoice. ArbKeep is the clinical record itself — soil, tissue, pest, disease, treatment — with an AI that's actually read the tree's history before it says a word.
The differential
ArbKeep's AI is scoped to one property, across thousands of data points that tree already owns: the soil chemistry, the pathology, every prior visit, every photo on its chart. It reasons from the tree's actual record — not a generic model — and drafts a diagnosis and treatment plan. Then it hands it to you. You confirm before anything reaches the client.
"Why is this Freeman maple thinning — three seasons running?"
The reasoning is the headline. The outputs — a lab read, a field diagnosis — drop straight into the chart:
The lab network
University extension labs and plant-pathology clinics are open to any working arborist — Penn State soil fertility, Ohio State plant pathology, your state's land-grant clinic. About $20 a sample, no conflict of interest. Results land in ArbKeep normalized onto the tree's chart, beside the field notes, the photos, the treatment plan. The AI reads it all before you walk up to the tree.
Every finding, every lab result, every photo, every treatment — one thread that follows the property, not the person. It's a record the arborist can stand on, the homeowner can finally see, and the next owner inherits along with the parcel. That's the health-record software layer underneath everything — the part no PHC tool before ArbKeep ever built.
