## What is Grasproot?

Grasproot is a safety-first herbal encyclopedia of 1,200+ herbs, medicinal fungi, seaweeds and functional foods, with a practitioner suite built on top of it.

For each entry it sets out what it contains, which actions and traditional uses are recorded, how it has been prepared, and what the evidence behind each claim actually is. Reading the encyclopedia is free, and no account is needed to read or to subscribe.

EVERY CLAIM CARRIES ITS BASIS
A statement is marked as cited when a source was read and attached, or as derived when it is reasoning from data already in the record. Where the sources are silent, the entry is silent. We would rather show you nothing than show you something plausible.

SAFETY THAT KNOWS YOUR SITUATION (PREMIUM)
With Premium, record your conditions, medications and allergies once, and the app checks them against every entry you read: drug interactions, cautions by condition, population warnings, and reported adverse effects involving a body system you have flagged. Each warning names its severity, and its source where one is recorded.

Only you can load your health profile. Entries receive the computed warnings only, and no copy is kept on your phone.

EXPLORE THE CONNECTIONS
• Search across herbs, compounds, conditions, actions and traditions
• Compare agents side by side
• Browse by body system, energetics, botanical family, region and tradition
• Relationship maps showing how agents, compounds and body systems connect
• With Premium: filter search and the practitioner tools by tradition and research strength
• With Premium: a combinations explorer for checking how herbs work together

FOR PRACTITIONERS AND SHOPS
The Practitioner subscription has switches instead of add-ons: turn on what your practice uses in Settings, and a guided setup helps. Formulary, for shops and apothecaries, has the herb tools, events and a directory listing, without client records.

• Encrypted client records, with an intake link your client fills in on their phone
• Scheduling: a calendar, appointment kinds and hours, a public booking page, confirmations and reminders by email, and two-way Google Calendar sync
• Care plans audited against the whole profile before they are saved
• A herb-drug interaction checker: the herbs against a medication list, each flag with its severity, and its source where one is recorded
• A formula builder with combined action profiles, cross-herb safety analysis and batch scaling
• A dosage and preparation calculator
• Printable client handouts and care plans with your practice's name on them, through the iOS print sheet
• Exports, calendar files and your own data, saved or shared through the iOS share sheet
• Events: a tablet kiosk for a booth or a market, a page for the herbs you mentioned in a talk, and the leads they collect
• Lot-tracked inventory, a personal materia medica, CE tracking, and a listing in the public practitioner directory
• A Face ID lock on client records inside the app
• Notifications (if you switch them on)

ALSO INSIDE
• With Premium, bookmarks and collections that sync with the website
• With Premium, save any entry for offline reading: it opens without a signal, marked with the date it was saved
• Dark by default, with four dark and four light palettes
