Turn any yard into a nativescape.

SmartScape is a hub for native plant landscaping in the US, built to help reverse our collapsing insect and bird populations. Our flagship climate tool, Greenprint Generator, suggests native plants matched to your site and goals — every layer, from ground cover to trees — plus the pollinators and wildlife each one supports. A starting point for your yard, and for the landscape designers, installers, and nurseries who help bring it to life.

Why SmartScape

Built for the yards in our warming world.

Every conventional yard is a climate retrofit waiting to happen — SmartScape guides you through it.

From our collapsing insect and bird populations, to water-thirsty suburban lawns and yards, to the fire risk that comes with flammable non-native landscaping, what we plant in our yards matters more than most people realize.

Most homeowners start on their own — figuring out budget, scale, and what's even possible long before they'd think to call in a landscape designer. SmartScape exists for everyone: a hybrid of human expertise paired with AI power that turns "I don't know where to start" into a personalized, native plant list, planting layout, and local landscaper and nursery matches — in minutes, not months.

Shaped and directed by human intelligence and expertise, powered by Claude AI.

We consider SmartScape an AI For Good project: a small, bounded use of AI aimed at one measurable outcome — helping more American yards become water-smart, pollinator-friendly, and native.
