RadicleBotany is a botanical education app for iOS built for learners who want to understand plants deeply.
Three identification modes let you learn at your own pace: Observe uses trait-based keying to teach you how botanists identify plants. Capture uses photo recognition for quick identification. Both combines the two: snap a photo, then verify through traits.
Every species entry includes morphological traits, family context, conservation status, and occurrence mapping. The goal is understanding.
Curated botanical database with full morphological profiles, family relationships, habitat data, and conservation status for every entry.
Complete glossary organized by category: leaf morphology, flower anatomy, root systems, growth habits, and beyond. Cross-referenced to species.
Every family with diagnostic traits, representative genera, and linked species. Understanding families is the key to recognizing patterns across plants.
GBIF occurrence data mapped to your location. See which species have been documented nearby and explore regional biodiversity.
Log observations with photos, location, and verified traits. Build collections. Track study streaks and earn achievements as your knowledge grows.
Spaced repetition flashcards and interactive botanizing scenarios. Learn by doing.
Trait-based keying. Select leaf shape, flower color, growth habit, and other morphological traits to narrow down species. The same process botanists use in the field.
Photo identification powered by PlantNet. Snap a photo of a leaf, flower, fruit, or bark and get species matches with confidence scores.
The hybrid approach. Start with a photo for a quick match, then verify through trait-based observation. The fastest path to confident identification.
2,300+ species. 180+ families. 460+ terms. Three identification modes. One pocket-sized botanical education.
