If you’ve ever been frustrated by unclear instructions, missed site issues, or questions like “Who told the crew?” then you’re not alone.
That’s exactly why Notes exist in Plato. It’s more than just a comment box. It’s your real-time log, instruction board, and site diary, right on the map and visible to everyone who needs it.
What Are Notes in Plato?
Notes are geo-tagged pins you can drop anywhere on the property map. You can use them to:
- Leave clear instructions for your crew
- Flag service issues (dead plants, broken sprinklers, skipped areas)
- Capture before and after photos or video walkthroughs
- Suggest enhancements to upsell or improve a site
- Document crew performance or safety concerns
- Track what’s been done and what hasn’t
You can even attach images, videos, and diagrams so that no one has to guess what you meant.
Where to See Notes:
When you open any property on Plato, the Notes Panel is always there, showing you every note that’s been added by you or your team.
Tap a note to see it on the map. Add a new one with a single click. Browse everything that’s happened on that site. All this without digging through messages or files.
Why You’ll Love Using Notes
Using Notes on Plato helps you and not just the managers.
- No more memory games – You don’t have to remember what you saw at the site. Just drop a note to document it right on the map.
- Crew accountability – Clear notes mean fewer excuses, less confusion, and better execution.
- Visual proof – Attach photos or videos to make your point, cover your back, or support your upsell.
- Better communication – Everyone sees the same thing in one place, tied to the exact location.
- Professionalism – Clients and managers notice when your updates are clear, consistent, and mapped.
Example:
Let’s say you're walking a site and notice a broken light, an overgrown hedge, and a missed edging area.
- Drop a note at each location
- Attach a photo
- Tag your crew or manager
- Done. You just documented a site audit, without filling out a single form or sending a single email.
