The problem
A yellow leaf could be 6 different things. Wrong guess, dead plant.
Overwatering and underwatering produce the same visual symptoms. Nitrogen deficiency and root rot look similar at early stages. Searching online returns contradictory forum threads from people whose plant, soil, pot, and light situation is nothing like yours.
Without context — the specific species, the specific symptom pattern, your specific environmental conditions — advice is guesswork. And guesswork kills plants.
How PlantCare works
Context-aware diagnosis in three steps
Photo diagnosis
Upload a photo of the affected leaf, stem, or soil. Vision AI analyzes color, texture, pattern, and distribution to identify the likely cause from a ranked list of differentials.
Species identification
PlantCare identifies species from 10,000+ plants — including common houseplants, garden varieties, and tropical species — providing species-specific care parameters, not generic advice.
Personalized care plan
Tell us your pot size, soil type, light conditions, and watering frequency. The care plan is generated for your specific setup — not a generic guide that assumes ideal conditions.
Seasonal scheduling
Care needs change by season. PlantCare adjusts watering frequency, fertilization schedule, and light recommendations based on time of year and your climate zone.
AI stack
Photo diagnosis
Analyzes plant photos to identify species, spot symptom patterns, and differentiate between causes that look visually similar.
Species knowledge base
10,000+ plant species with care parameters, common diseases, growth patterns, and environmental requirements.
Personalized care plans
Generates care plans using the species data + your specific inputs on pot, soil, light, and watering — not averages.
Your plant needs a diagnosis, not a guess
Upload a photo and get a precise diagnosis in under a minute.
