Real data, not guesses.
Verdant works from the controller's exact location and the hardware actually in the ground, and it does the math on the controller itself.
Soil from the USDA, not a dropdown
Your controller looks up its soil type in USDA soil data for its exact latitude and longitude. No guessing between clay, loam and sand, and no soil test to get started.
Sun times calculated on the controller
Dawn, sunrise, solar noon, sunset and dusk are calculated on the controller from its exact location. Programs set to a solar event keep running on time, even with no internet connection.
11 nozzle types
Choose from 11 nozzle types, so each zone's run time matches the hardware actually in the ground.
Finished before the sun comes up.
The best time to water is the hours before dawn, when evaporation is lowest. Set a program to end by dawn and Verdant schedules backward from it, counting every soak and pause.
Dawn moves every day, so the schedule moves with it. For an HOA, that also means sprinklers are off before residents head out for a morning walk.
Why not just use a ZIP code?
Many controllers estimate sunrise and local conditions from your ZIP code. A ZIP code can cover miles, and its center can sit in a different county from your yard.
Others can use your exact location, but only through their phone app, which then knows where you are. Verdant uses the controller's own coordinates: no app, no tracking, no guesswork.
Everything else in the box.
Patent-pending soak and cycle
Gets the timing right across every zone, so programs often finish much sooner.
Six weather sources
Forecasts for the controller's exact spot, with automatic failover if one source goes down.
Faults caught early
Per-station current sensing flags a stuck valve or broken wire before it becomes a brown patch.
Watering restrictions built in
Enter your allowed days and budgets. Verdant waters within them and keeps the turf alive.
A savings ledger you can read
Gallons and dollars saved every month, with every skipped watering explained.
Backup and fleet tools
Free local backup on every controller. Installer plans add cloud restore and one configuration pushed to many controllers.
See exactly where your water goes.
Every controller produces a daily report, free. Pro and installer plans add 31-day savings reports, for the whole property and zone by zone.
