We created bud for those who love plants but need a little extra helping hand. Bud is a mobile app that organizes all your plants in one place, creates personalized care schedules and diagnoses common illnesses with integrated treatment plans.

Powered by AI, bud can easily identify common house plants and provide detailed information of their characteristics and care needs. Have pets at home? Bud also flags if a plant is toxic to animals. Bud helps you understand a plant right off the bat to make safer and more informed purchasing decisions. With just a few photos, bud organizes all your plants in one place and builds a care schedule for each plant based on its water, soil, and nutrient needs. Plant owners will receive gentle reminders for tasks or assign another friend as a caretaker when they are away, so no plants are left behind even in the busiest schedules.

Whether you are a seasoned plant parent or just starting your green journey, sometimes it is hard to keep a plant alive and thriving. Bud diagnoses common plant issues and generates a treatment plan that will be integrated with the plant’s existing care schedule. Treating a plant can be a daunting task. By breaking it down into smaller steps and incorporating it with the regular to-dos, bud empowers plant parents with professional knowledge and confidence on their plant-care journey.
