How it works

1

Take a photo on your phone

Point and shoot — include the leaves and any flowers or seed heads. Natural daylight gives the clearest results. Any camera works.

Upload right here — no app needed

Tap 'Snap a Photo' on this page and upload. Nothing to install, nothing to sign up for. Works on iPhone, Android, tablet, or desktop.

3

Get the plain-English name

We say 'Dandelion' — not Taraxacum officinale. A confidence score and photo comparison let you verify before acting.

4

Follow your treatment plan

Dig or spray? Which herbicide? Which products? Prevention tips? It's all there — specific to your weed, in plain English.

Tips for Better Results

  • Photograph the weed from above and at an angle
  • Include leaves and any flowers or seed heads
  • Use natural daylight for the clearest results
  • Photograph a single weed species, not a mixed patch
  • If the weed is flowering, always include the flower in the shot

Common Lawn Weeds

🌼

Crabgrass

Annual grassy weed that spreads flat. Prevent with pre-emergent in early spring.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to download an app?

No download needed. The weed identifier works entirely in your web browser — on iPhone, Android, tablet, or desktop. Just open this page, upload a photo, and get your answer. Nothing to install, no account required.

Do I need to know Latin plant names?

Absolutely not. We give you the plain-English name — Dandelion, Crabgrass, Clover — front and centre. The scientific name is tucked away in small print for anyone curious, but you never need to read it. We answer “what is that weed?” in language anyone can understand.

How does the weed identifier work?

Upload a photo and our AI identifies the weed species, then instantly generates a treatment plan with chemical and non-chemical options, removal advice, and recommended products. You can also skip the photo and select your weed from our database if you already know what it is.

Do I get a treatment plan too?

Yes! Every identification comes with a full treatment plan — whether to dig or spray, which herbicides work best, non-chemical management tips, prevention advice, and recommended products you can buy. For weeds not in our database, AI generates a custom treatment plan.

How many weeds can I identify per day?

You can identify up to 20 plants per day, completely free. The limit resets every 24 hours. No account or sign-up required.
