Photograph the whole plant and add a line about where it sits and how you water it. You get the likely species, what's visibly going on, and care steps for today, this week and the long run.
Each check uses 5 credits. You can review the photo and context before it runs.

The care notes
From what is visible to what to do next.
Switch between three plants and read the whole note: candidates, confidence, what the photo shows, and care sorted by now, this week and the long run. The tool does not stamp a disease name on a photo.
Photo input
Your context
South-facing window, watered about weekly, some leaf tips turned brown this month.

Plant
Likely Monstera deliciosa
Confidence: Medium
Candidates: Monstera deliciosa; confirm with a clearer leaf and stem photo.
What we see
A few brown, dry tips are visible; the photo alone cannot tell you why.
Observations
Mature leaves have natural splits.
A few leaf tips are brown and dry.
No clearly visible pests, which does not rule them out.
Check the soil about 2–3 cm below the surface before watering again.
Let excess water drain from the pot.
Species, confidence and care steps are written examples for this page, not outputs from the tool. The tool describes what a photo shows; it does not replace a plant specialist, and it never gives brand names, doses or mixing recipes.
How it works
A clear photo beats ten guesses.
Step 1
Photograph the whole plant
Leaves, stems and the soil surface all help. Use good light and a clean background. JPEG, PNG and WebP up to 10 MB are supported.
Step 2
Choose the most useful photo
One photo per check. If spots or pests are the concern, get close enough that they are clearly visible. You can add up to 300 characters about the light, watering and what changed.
Step 3
Read the observations, then act by timeline
Start with now, then this week and the long run. Treat the note as guidance, not a diagnosis; for valuable or rare plants, ask a specialist before treating.
Whole plant
Show the context
A close-up of one leaf can miss the pot, the soil and the light. The whole plant is the useful starting point.
One photo
Pick the view that shows the change
Use a close-up when spots or pests are the issue, and keep a leaf in focus so the pattern is visible.
Three horizons
Decide what to do first
Now, this week and the long run are separated so you can act without treating everything at once.
The tool names active-ingredient classes only, with no brands, doses or mixing recipes.
Plant moments
Before you reach for the watering can.
Three planning scenarios, not customer reviews. The people and places are illustrative.
Elena · Monstera · after a trip
Elena came home and put the watering can down first.
She had been away, saw the drooping leaves and assumed thirst. Checking the soil first changed the next step: the pot was still damp, so watering again would have made the problem worse.
Check the soil below the surface, then water only if it is dry.
Illustrative scenario
Care observationA few dry tips do not automatically mean thirst.Leaves drooped, but the soil was still damp.
Marcus · Peace lily · new change
Marcus' peace lily drooped while the soil was still wet.
He wanted to water it again, but the soil said no. Pausing and checking the drainage gave the plant a better chance than adding more water on a hunch.
Pause watering, check the drainage, and inspect the roots if it persists.
Illustrative scenario
Care observationDrooping is not always a sign of thirst.Drooping leaves, damp soil, no visible pests.
Nina · Spider plant · long record
Nina stopped answering every brown tip with extra feed.
Instead of treating each tip as a separate emergency, she kept the light and watering steady and recorded whether the browning spread. A few weeks of notes were more useful than another product.
Keep care steady and track whether the browning spreads.
Illustrative scenario
Care observationA few brown tips, with the rest of the plant upright.Brown tips, the rest of the plant upright.
Before you water or treat
What is visible is a clue, not a diagnosis.
This page does not upload your photo. Before you run the tool, check its current privacy notes. The facts above come from the tool's live settings.
What kind of photo works best?
The whole plant in one shot — leaves, stems and the soil surface — in good light with a clean background. If a specific leaf looks wrong, get close enough that the spots are clearly visible.
Can it tell me exactly what disease my plant has?
It describes what's visible (spot patterns, coatings, pests, wilting) and what to watch for, rather than stamping a definitive diagnosis. For valuable plants, confirm with a specialist before treating.
Does it recommend products?
It names the active-ingredient class to look for (like "an insecticidal soap") and tells you to follow the product label — never brands, doses or mixing ratios.
What if the photo isn't a plant or is blurry?
You get a short explanation and what to fix instead of made-up results — retake with the whole plant in frame and better light.
How much does it cost?
You can try it once without an account. After that each check costs 5 credits; new accounts get free credits to start.
Start with what you can see.
Take one clear photo of the whole plant, add a line about what changed, and read the care note before you act.
