PlantCast is the plant care companion that helps you identify, organize, and care for every plant in your life—with optional AI assistance when you want it. IDENTIFY PLANTS INSTANTLY Point your camera at any plant and get a quick identification. Works with flowers, trees, herbs, succulents, houseplants, and more. Choose from your camera, your photo library, or identify multiple plants at once with an overhead satellite view of your garden or yard. PERSONALIZED CARE SCHEDULES Create Casts—smart schedules that remind you when to water, fertilize, repot, and tend your plants. PlantCast can use local weather context to help recommendations fit real conditions. MAP YOUR GARDEN WITH SATELLITE IMAGERY Build growing Areas on real satellite maps. Place plants where they actually grow, use GPS where it helps, and see your space from above. You can also start from camera snapshots or hand-drawn layouts. AI ASSISTANT Ask the built-in assistant about plant care: ideas for your space, troubleshooting, species to try, and plain-language answers in a natural back-and-forth. LEARN AND SHARE Dig into plant profiles, care basics, and tips at your own pace. When you want to show off your collection or swap ideas, sharing with friends fits right in with how you already use your plants and areas. IMPORT, EXPORT, AND YOUR DATA Bring plants in or move your collection out when you need to. Prefer cloud sync or a more device-focused mode—PlantCast is built so your plant data stays oriented around you, not ads.
