Planta releases upgraded plant ID tool
Plant and garden care app Planta has released an upgraded plant ID tool, Quick Add, designed to help users identify and add plants to the app and receive smart care schedules.
With a single scan, users can capture their home or garden setup. The new Quick Add tool automatically detects plant species, light conditions, pot type, drainage, soil and overall plant health, then adds each plant to a personalized collection with tailored care settings.
The updated tool builds on seven years of user data, including millions of plant setups and care outcomes, and combines it with new AI vision technology. This allows Planta to deliver more precise care schedules based on each plant’s environment, rather than relying on generalized guidance.
“The goal is to make smart plant care more intuitive,” said Jesper Svenson, CEO, Planta. “By combining plant identification with environmental analysis, we’re helping users better understand the parameters contributing to how their plants are growing and precisely what they need to stay healthy.”
Once added to the app, users receive ongoing reminders to water, fertilize, mist, repot and perform other care tasks. By accounting for more than 100 variables, the system adapts care recommendations over time to support long-term plant health.
The updated Planta app, featuring the new Quick Add tool, is now available on iOS.
