Using LLMs for Descriptions of Plants, Insects, and Fungi
We tested LLMs to improve multilingual descriptions of plants, insects, and fungi where Wikipedia entries were inadequate. GPT-4o outperformed smaller models such as GPT-4o mini and Mistral Pixtral 12B, especially in grammar and factual accuracy. It performed better in widely spoken languages and common species. In the end, GPT-4o was used to generate descriptions in 28 languages, providing better coverage for the Kindwise API.

Summer 2024 Plant.id Model Update
The Plant.id model upgrade resulted in significant improvements in accuracy. It reached over 85% accuracy in the first response (TOP 1). The increase is greatest for European and North American plants, with 6.0% and 3.6%, respectively.

Kindwise meets large language models
We started looking for synergies between our narrow ML models and LLMs. Let's play with this together on our demo 🙂

The Plant Identification Battle: GPT-4 vs. Plant.id
Multimodal Large Language models have recently made it possible to identify various objects from images, including plants. This became a competition for narrowly focused neural network models, such as that of Plant.id. Here we compare the accuracy of these models by focusing on the proportion of wrong answers.

Plant.id excells in urban forest biodiversity study
Plant.id emerged as the leading application for the automatic identification of tree species, outperforming other methods in accuracy and efficiency.

API Search for plant/insect/mushroom details by its name
Our endpoint allows our clients to search through huge botanical, fungi or insect database by latin name or common names to get various species info

Elevate plant identification with varieties
As the world of houseplants and ornamental varieties continues to flourish, many people now seek more than species identification. Our new 'Varieties' model responds to this demand and offers you a unique opportunity to gain a competitive advantage by enabling the identification of almost 1,000 plant varieties.

October Plant.id upgrade
We have upgraded the Plant.id model, increasing the number of classes from 33,325 to 35,756. The new version, released in October 2023, shows significant performance improvements over the previous models, especially in Europe and North America.

Do The Different Light Conditions Have An Influence On Plant.Id Identification Accuracy?
Plant.id is an API that identifies plant species and diseases from photos with machine learning. Send us images of your plant and get the possible suggestions with plenty of other information including representative images of the species.

Use Plant.Id Demo As An App
The primary purpose of Plant.id is to provide a plant species and diseases identification API. To make it accessible to non-programmers, we created a web demo, which you can try at https://plant.id/ website.

Health Assessment Production Release
Let us introduce you to the first production version of Plant.id Health Assessment. During the last year, we have been collecting feedback on the beta version of our plant disease identification API. Moreover, we have expanded our datasets and deepened our understanding of machine learning-powered plant disease identification.
