Draw your yard. See every strip, seam, and cut β optimized for minimum waste. Get your full material list, job cost, and a branded proposal in under 30 seconds.
The engine evaluates dozens of strip rotations and offsets to find the layout with the lowest waste. Not a guess β a computed optimum. See the waste percentage before you order.
All strips are optimized for consistent nap direction. No color mismatch between pieces. No callbacks because someone rotated a strip to save material.
Turf, base rock with compaction factor, infill, seam tape, adhesive, bender board, and staples. Every line item calculated from your layout. Change the shape, everything recalculates.
Every strip dimensioned: 15' Γ 22.4', 15' Γ 31.8'. No interpretation needed. No field decisions that turn into waste. Print it, hand it to the crew, done.
Per-strip and per-job waste quantified to the square foot. Compare different strip orientations side by side. Pick the layout that costs the least β with hard numbers, not gut feel.
Branded PDF with your company logo, a visual of the strip layout, itemized materials, and total price. Ready to hand to the homeowner or email from the driveway.
L-shapes, curves, pool cutouts, irregular lots, and tight side yards. Click to plot vertices, add cutouts for hardscape, and the area calculates automatically.
Plot vertices to draw the yard β any shape, any complexity. Add cutouts for pools, patios, and garden beds. Import measurements from Moasure or enter them manually.
The engine tests dozens of strip rotations and grid offsets, then returns the layout with the lowest waste. Every strip, seam line, and nap direction is visible β compare options and pick the best one.
Get your dimensioned cut list (every strip measured to the inch), complete material takeoff (turf, base rock, infill, tape, adhesive, edging, staples), waste percentage, and total job cost. Generate a branded proposal in one click.

"We were about to go back to hand-drawing. This is exactly what we needed β simple for field guys, accurate for ordering."
"Saved us $3,000+ in waste on one commercial job. The optimization found a layout we'd never have tried."
"New hires estimate on day one. We used to lose two weeks training people on measurements and cuts."

Start Free TrialTurfBrain is estimation software built for professional artificial turf installers. It replaces the spreadsheets, hand sketches, and guesswork that most installation companies use to figure out how many rolls they need, where to place the seams, and what materials to order.
You draw the yard shape β any shape, including L-shapes, curves, pool cutouts, and irregular lots β and TurfBrain calculates the optimal strip layout. It tests multiple rotation angles and offsets to find the arrangement that wastes the least material. Every strip is dimensioned with exact widths and lengths so your crew has a clear cut list before they show up to the job.
Beyond the turf itself, TurfBrain generates a complete material takeoff: base rock with compaction factor, infill quantities, seam tape by linear foot, adhesive tubes, bender board, and landscape staples. Change the layout and every line item recalculates automatically. No formulas to maintain. No cells to break.
The output is a branded proposal with a visual layout, itemized material list, and total job cost β ready to hand to a homeowner or email from the driveway. The whole process takes under three minutes.
TurfBrain is used by synthetic grass installation companies across the US β from single-crew residential installers to multi-location enterprise operations. It's designed for the people who actually estimate and install turf: company owners, operations managers, field estimators, and crew leads. If you're ordering rolls and calculating cuts, this is built for you.
Whether you're estimating a 400-square-foot backyard or a 10,000-square-foot commercial project, TurfBrain handles the geometry, the materials math, and the proposal β so you can quote faster, order accurately, and stop leaving money on the table.
