What it does
Most plant apps do one thing. Pocket Botanist brings it all together. Snap a photo for a plant ID, then move straight into diagnosing problems, setting care reminders, and checking if a plant is toxic to pets or family. Watering tips are weather-aware, your hardiness zone is detected automatically, and a journal tracks every plant over time. It closes the loop, so identifying a plant leads naturally into caring for it. Clearer answers and calmer plant care, all in one place.
Identify any plant from a photo and keep it alive. Pocket Botanist names it in about a second, spots problems and reminds you to water. Free on iOS and Android.
Point your phone at any plant. Pocket Botanist names it in about a second, spots trouble early, and reminds you to water at the right time. No subscription. No login wall. No newsletter pop-up the moment you arrive. Just open the app, point the camera at a plant, and find out what it is. That's the whole loop. Flowering plants, trees, shrubs, succulents, herbs, fungi, and ferns. When something is outside the training set, the app says so. Open the camera, take a photo. The name, family, and confidence figure return in about a second. Brown tips, pale leaves, leggy stems. Pocket Botanist flags likely causes and suggests the smallest correction. Recent lookups are kept for you automatically.…from pocketbotanist.app

Clipto MCP▲655Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
