OVER 10,000+ SPECIES OF PLANTS AVAILABLE FOR IDENTIFICATION

IDENTIFY & ID ANY PLANTS

Our Plant ID API is a smart tool made for developers who want to create apps that identify plants. Simply scan a plant, and our API matches it with our big plant database. It gives useful details like the plant's name, how to take care of it, growth stages, pictures, and even the best climate for it. Our API doesn't just identify plants - it also gives information on things like houseplants, outdoor plants that are good for the environment, safe to eat fruits and berries, and plants that are used for medicine. It's the perfect tool for developers making plant-related apps.
