Validation prototype: no mower checkout, live booking or address storage

Pre-launch robot mower yard-fit method

Check the yard before the mower.

Yard Method is a pre-launch validation project. No products, assessments, surveys, installations, bookings, payments or customer-data intake are currently available. There is no active dealer authorization, affiliate program, inventory or service territory.

The proposed method compares a mower configuration with acreage, slopes, trees, passages, grass, power and hazards. Every reviewed outcome can include uncertainty, a physical assessment or no-fit.

Human-reviewed
No instant certainty
Multi-brand method
Fit before commission
No-fit is valid
No forced product result

Interactive prototype

Try the five journeys that must work before launch.

These fixtures use demonstration data only. Choose a yard state to see the disposition, evidence, limitations and allowed next action.

Choose a demonstration yard scenario

Demonstration review

Complex yard, complete evidence

0.68 acre, two zones, measured slopes, open-sky dock area

  • Remote property screen
  • Homeowner evidence
  • Human decision rules

No personal data is entered, transmitted or saved in this prototype.

An honest result set

Four outcomes, not one sales funnel.

Remote candidate

Enough evidence for human review, not an instant guarantee.

Site survey needed

A physical measurement or signal check decides fit.

No supported fit

A known constraint makes no sale the responsible outcome.

Outside service area

Local support is unavailable; seller roles stay explicit.

The evidence chain

Google Earth starts the screen. The yard still gets the last word.

Earth can estimate mowable polygons and reveal likely zones, canopy, gates, water and crossings. Its area and elevation data are screening evidence, not mower-scale certification.

Read Google's measurement limits
  1. 01

    Trace the visible lawn

    Separate zones and exclude house, pavement, beds and water.

  2. 02

    Ask for current evidence

    Photos, guided slope readings, passages, grass, power and hazards.

  3. 03

    Apply hard limits

    Unknowns route to review or survey. Known unsafe conditions decline.

  4. 04

    Show the reasoning

    Every result names evidence, assumptions, seller and next verification.

Where fit breaks

The specification is not the yard.

CapacityMeasured mowable area needs operating headroom, not brochure math.
GradeSatellite elevation can locate risk; it cannot certify maximum mower-scale slope.
NavigationCanopy, structures and dead zones can defeat otherwise suitable hardware.
RoutesGates, passages, driveways and public crossings can break a multi-zone plan.
SafetyPools, drops, paths, children and pets can require a survey or a decline.

Proposed pilot scope

Installation ends with an acceptance record.

The $499 validation offer is not live. When its operating gates pass, standard scope covers station placement, mapping, safety exclusions, firmware, app setup, test mowing, dock returns, owner training and seven-day follow-up.

Electrical work, trenching, landscaping, drainage, tree work and unsafe conditions remain excluded unless separately handled by a qualified provider.

Commercial independence

Inventory and commission do not determine fit.

Fit ranking excludes dealer margin, affiliate commission, inventory age and manufacturer incentives. Commercial factors can break a tie only after two options are equally suitable, and the relationship is disclosed beside the action.

Affiliate links require active program approval and tested seller, support, disclosure and tracking states. None are active here.
