How identification works

Take a clear photo

Photograph the affected leaf, stem, or fruit in good light. Fill the frame with the problem area and avoid blurry or distant shots.

We match it to a plant

The photo is sent to Pl@ntNet, a plant identification service, with a self-hosted model as backup. It returns the likely species and any visible pests or diseases.

Review and treat

Results are suggestions, not a diagnosis. Confirm with your local extension office before applying any treatment.

Your photos stay private

SproutLoop does not store the photos you upload here. They are sent to the identification service only for analysis.
