About
Birder AI is the bird identification app for people who actually go birding. Snap a photo, get a confident ID in seconds, log it to your life list, and see what your friends are spotting nearby — all in one beautifully designed app built for iOS.
IDENTIFY ANY BIRD FROM A PHOTO
Point, shoot, and let Birder AI's multimodal vision model do the rest. Each ID comes with:
• A top match plus ranked alternates so you can compare lookalikes
• Confidence tier so you know when to trust it
• "Tell me more" key field marks and lookalike notes
• Region- and season-aware suggestions — a Yellow Warbler in May Maine is not the same shortlist as a Yellow Warbler in January Costa Rica
KEEP A REAL LIFE LIST
Forget the spreadsheet. Birder AI gives you:
• A clean life list with sort, search, and filter
• Manual sighting entry for birds you ID'd yourself
• Photos attached to every sighting
• Year list, top hotspot, and stat tracking
• Achievement badges as you hit milestones
• A "where you've birded" map view
