Snap-a-Leaf: Yellowing Plant Rescue
Snap a photo of a yellowing leaf and get expert-level plant rescue advice instantly
Inspiration: Quality Service
In traditional gardening services, professional horticulturists visit in person to inspect plants, diagnose issues like yellowing or wilting leaves, and provide tailored care plans for watering, fertilizing, and pruning.
Why Ordinary People Can't Access It
Ordinary plant owners face common problems: they see yellowing leaves but don't know the cause, and online advice is confusing and contradictory. Hiring a gardener for a diagnosis is expensive and slow, and apartment dwellers lack access to reliable gardening expertise—so plants often die unnecessarily.
AI-Powered Equalizer
Users snap a photo of a problem leaf, and AI image recognition identifies the likely cause (underwatering, overwatering, nutrient deficiency, light issues, pests, etc.). Combined with plant species and season, it generates one simple, actionable rescue step and tracks recovery with reminders.
