AI agent for gardeners
Manages regular customers, reminds them of visits and sends the bill at the end of the month. A personal agent (a digital assistant) on WhatsApp and by phone, in English, Hebrew or any language, in your business's name.
First month freeA gardener usually has regular customers: a visit every week or two, plus one-time jobs such as pruning, a new lawn or an irrigation system. It is hard to remember who paid, who asked for a change and who is waiting for a quote.
The Darka agent keeps the list for you, reminds customers of the visit, answers new inquiries and at the end of the month sends every regular customer their bill.
What your customers ask
- "How much for weekly care of a 100-square-meter garden?"
- "Do you install irrigation systems with a controller?"
- "The lawn has turned yellow. What do we do?"
- "A tall tree needs pruning. Do you do that?"
The agent answers these questions for you, by your prices and your rules.
What the agent does for you
- Manages the list of regular customers, with each one's visit days and price
- Tells the customer ahead of time when a day changes because of rain or workload
- Gives quotes for one-time jobs: pruning, lawn, planting, irrigation
- At the end of each month sends every regular customer the amount due, and reminds those who have not paid
- Reminds you of seasonal jobs, such as adjusting the irrigation before summer

Frequently asked questions
What is an AI agent?
An AI agent is a digital assistant that works for your business. An ordinary bot answers from a fixed menu. An agent understands free language and also gets things done: it answers customers on WhatsApp and by phone, books jobs in the calendar, gives price quotes and sends payment reminders, all by the rules you set.
Does it remember what I agreed with each customer?
Yes. For each customer it keeps the address, the price, the visit days and special requests, and you can ask it about them at any moment.
What happens when it rains?
Tell it "no work today", and it will let all of today's customers know and offer them another date.
What is the difference between an AI agent, a virtual receptionist and a WhatsApp bot?
An ordinary WhatsApp bot answers from a fixed menu. A virtual receptionist is usually a person who answers for you during certain hours. A Darka AI agent speaks in everyday language like a receptionist, answers at any hour like a bot, and also does the work: books the calendar, gives prices, prepares documents and collects payments.
Do I need to install an app?
No. Everything works through WhatsApp and an ordinary phone. You talk to the agent as you would to an employee, and it sends you summaries and files in the same chat.
Can it answer phone calls?
Yes. You forward the calls you did not pick up to it, and it answers in English, Hebrew or any language, in your business's name, and writes down what the customer wanted. During setup it explains how to connect this.
Will it give customers too low a price?
No. You set the prices and, if you like, a minimum price for negotiating. It does not go below the minimum and does not commit to anything you have not approved.
What about invoices?
It tracks payments, reminds customers who owe and prepares a monthly income report, including VAT, in Excel. You keep issuing official tax invoices in your own software.
Does it work on Shabbat?
No. Darka is not active on Shabbat and Jewish holidays. A customer who writes on Shabbat gets an answer after Shabbat ends.
How secure is it? Is my business's and my customers' information safe?
Yes. Darka does not sell your information and does not use it for advertising. Your phone number is your account, and a personal code (PIN) protects your saved details. Passwords and credit card details are stored encrypted, are never said aloud and are never sent in messages. Before every payment Darka reads out what is being paid and waits for a clear "yes" from you. And at any time you can ask to see, correct or delete your information: info@darka.app. The full details are in the privacy policy, at the bottom of the page.
What does it cost?
The first month is free. After that, about ₪200 a month, depending on how much work the agent does. Prefer not to pay? You can carry on for free with 30 minutes a month.
