Photo-assisted seed identification and research
Identify the seed.
Know what to verify.
Photograph a seed for a likely match, compare its visible traits, explore typical growing context, and keep the result with questions you still want to investigate.

What is Seed Identifier: Photo Scan?
Seed Identifier: Photo Scan is an iPhone app that analyzes one selected seed photo and suggests a likely common and scientific name, visible characteristics, plant context, typical growing needs, uses, safety notes, and a reference source. It can save results and follow-up questions in a private library that may sync through iCloud.
A photo result is an AI-assisted likely match, not verified botanical identification or safety clearance. Never eat, brew, plant, apply, or medically use an unknown seed based only on an image result; confirm the species and cultivar with a qualified local source.

Inside the app
Focused tools, built around one job.
Every feature supports the same workflow, so the app feels like a system rather than a folder of disconnected AI buttons.
01
Compare visible seed traits
Inspect shape, colour, texture, size, weight context, seed type, and dispersal details against the seed in front of you.
Explore typical growing context
Review sunlight, watering, soil, temperature, planting depth, spacing, season, germination, and mature-plant information.
Keep safety limits explicit
See clear reminders that photo matching cannot establish edibility, toxicity, medicinal suitability, treatment, or planting safety.
Build a private seed library
Save selected photos, likely matches, details, and follow-up answers locally and, when available, through your private iCloud account.
Ask what to verify next
Ask a seed-specific follow-up question while keeping the saved result and previous conversation together.

How it works
From input to useful answer.
- 01
Photograph the seed clearly
Use even light, a plain background, sharp focus, and a useful scale reference when possible.
- 02
Compare the likely match
Check the proposed common and scientific names, visible traits, confidence estimate, and growing context instead of treating the result as certain.
- 03
Save, investigate, and verify
Keep the record and follow-up answers together, then confirm important identity, safety, and planting decisions with authoritative regional sources or a qualified local expert.

Direct answers
Frequently asked questions.
How does Seed Identifier analyze a seed?
Take or choose one clear photo and submit it in the app. The app returns an AI-assisted likely match with visible characteristics and available growing context for you to compare and verify.
What kinds of seeds can I scan?
The workflow can analyze many vegetable, flower, herb, tree, grain, wildflower, succulent, and grass seeds. Coverage is not guaranteed, and image quality or visual similarity between species can affect the result.
Can I save my results and questions?
Yes. Selected photos, likely matches, seed details, and saved follow-up conversations remain in the app and may sync through your private iCloud account when available.
Can I eat, brew, plant, or medically use a seed based on the result?
No. Similar seeds can be hard to distinguish, and an AI photo result can be wrong. Confirm the species and cultivar with authoritative regional references or a qualified local source before any safety-critical decision.
