Tree Assessment Software for Arborists in the Field and Office

Collect assessment data in the field on your phone, online or off, with tree risk assessment criteria to calculate ratings and generate rich PDF reports.

Spend less time on reports, make more from every inspection.

Built for the field

Collect it at the tree, right on your phone.

Assess, photograph and update every tree where it stands, with or without signal. It all syncs when you're back online, ready to report from the office.

RootFlare on a phone: a tree's page with its photo, species, DBH, height, last assessment rated Low Risk, client and inventory, and buttons for New Assessment, Edit Tree and Start AI Analysis.
Tree Risk Assessments in RootFlare

Tree Risk Assessments

Assess a tree on your phone and send the report from the same data.

  • Targets, conditions, failure modes and photos, captured online or off
  • Basic tree risk ratings calculated by the risk matrix
  • PDF reports in Micro, Standard or Detailed, emailed from the assessment
Tree Database in RootFlare

Tree Database

Every tree keeps its own record, visit after visit.

  • Details, location and the client who owns it
  • A photo gallery, with arrows and labels drawn on
  • Every past assessment and its rating
Tree Inventories in RootFlare

Tree Inventories

Group trees for a property, a street or a park.

  • Every tree in the inventory pinned on a map
  • Each tree's latest rating at a glance
  • GIS import and export: a client's list in, ArcGIS or QGIS out

Also included

Everything that comes with every plan.

Offline field capture

Changes save to the phone and sync when it's back online — nothing waits on signal.

Tree risk matrix

Likelihood and consequence combine into a rating the same way on every assessment.

Targets and failure modes

Record what could fail, what it could hit, and the risk link between them.

Tree photo galleries

Every tree keeps its own gallery; pull a photo into any assessment of that tree.

Report formats

Micro for a one-page summary, Standard for the full report, Detailed with contents and definitions.

ISA form export

Export to ISA Basic Tree Risk Assessment Form, filled from the same assessment data.

GIS import and export

Import a client's tree list from CSV, GeoJSON or Excel; export trees as GeoJSON or CSV for ArcGIS or QGIS.

Clients

Keep each client's trees, assessments and inventories together; emailing a report fills in their address.


Reports

From the field to a finished report.

The assessment you captured at the tree becomes a PDF report — Micro, Standard or Detailed — and if you like a filled ISA form, without typing any of it again.

The report: cover, summary, photos and ratings, a PDF you email from the assessment.
The same assessment exported to the Basic Tree Risk Assessment Form, its fields filled in and its boxes ticked.

Bring your own AI

Connect RootFlare to Claude.

Add your own Anthropic API key and Claude takes a first look at a tree for you: it reads the tree's photos and details and suggests what to fill in on the form.

  • Your key, your account

    Analyses run on your own Anthropic key, billed to you, with a daily limit you set. There's no shared key behind it.

  • You decide what goes in

    Every suggestion is shown for review first, with the photos it came from. Nothing reaches the assessment until you apply it.

  • The ratings stay yours

    The risk matrix still calculates every rating, and nothing the AI wrote ever appears in a report.

Try it on your next tree.

Start a 7-day free trial and capture your first assessment in the field.
