How it works

Three steps. Under a minute.

1

Snap a photo

Take a clear photo of the plant — leaves, flowers, or fruits work best.

2

AI identifies the species

Our YOLOv11 model returns the species name with a confidence score in seconds.

3

Contribute to research

Each detection (with optional location) helps map the spread of invasive species across India.

Photo guide

How to take a great photo

The clearer your photo, the better the result. A few quick tips:

Example of a clear, well-framed plant photo
Do this
  • Use natural daylight — bright but not harsh
  • Fill the frame with the plant — get close
  • Focus on a single leaf, flower, or fruit
  • Pick a clean background where the plant stands out
Example of a blurry or poorly framed plant photo
Avoid this
  • Blurry, shaky, or out-of-focus shots
  • Multiple species crowded in one frame
  • Wide landscape shots from a distance
  • Heavy shadows or backlit silhouettes

Why it matters

Invasive species threaten Indian biodiversity

Invasive plants out-compete native species, reshape ecosystems, and cost agriculture billions every year. Early detection makes a difference — and you can help.

  • Map the spread of invasive species in real time
  • Empower farmers and forest officers with local data
  • Support research with a growing, public dataset
