Science, not AI

What grows when: backed by records, not guesses.

Season calendars are averages, and an AI only guesses on top of them. Forage instead computes with over 3 billion data points from museums, research collections and naturalists worldwide.

For every species you see when it's actually ripe in your region, how many real finds back that up, and which month gets the most reports.

Plus what no calendar knows: Forage factors in weeks of recent weather and your location's elevation. A warm valley is ready earlier than a cool ridge.

Identify safely

First the direction, then the certainty.

The photo scan recognizes plants and mushrooms remarkably well in practice and points you in the right direction instantly.

Then you make sure: every species comes with characteristics to check, edible parts, warnings, and the lookalikes you need to watch for.

Never eat anything you haven't identified beyond doubt.

Foraging pays off

See what your basket is worth.

Berries, mushrooms, wild herbs: what you forage, you'd otherwise buy. Forage converts your logged finds into local store prices.

So year after year, you know what the forest gave you by the end of the season.

For families

Foraging with kids, without the guesswork.

“What's that? Can you eat it?” With Forage the answer is in your hand: what it is, when it ripens, and what you can make from it.

The Foragedex turns every walk into a treasure hunt: each new species an entry, badges for keeping at it. Outside, kids learn more than in front of any screen.

Never too late

Forage tells you when it's time.

For many species, only two weeks separate “not yet” from “over.” Miss them, and you wait a year.

Put species on your watchlist: the moment the season starts in your region, Forage pings you, instead of you checking every week.

Guides for the field

Season, habitat and lookalike risk for the most common species. No edibility promises: the call is yours.

One note before you head out

Forage helps you discover and identify wild plants, but identification is never 100% certain. Many edible plants have toxic lookalikes. Never eat anything you find based only on what this app tells you. Always confirm with a field guide, an experienced forager or a local expert. The season score tells you where to look, too: it’s not a guarantee. Mind conservation law and property rights as well.
