Plant identification & health

Know what’s wrong.
Know if it got better.

Cambium is the plant app that doesn’t stop at a diagnosis. Point, scan, treat, then re-check so you can see whether care actually worked.

The core loop

Care that proves whether it worked.

Cambium turns a scan into a treatment cycle: diagnose the problem, follow a clear plan, then re-check the same plant to confirm recovery.

Diagnose Treat Re-check Confirm
  1. 01

    Diagnose

    Point your camera at a plant. Get a species ID, a 0-100 health score, and plain-language cause if something’s off.

  2. 02

    Treat

    A specific, dated treatment plan: what to do, how often, and when to expect improvement. Not a wall of text.

  3. 03

    Re-check

    A scheduled follow-up nudges you to rescan the same plant so you can see if care is working.

  4. 04

    Confirm

    Health trends, before/after photos, and a closed loop. Did the treatment actually work? Now you’ll know.

Built for plant people

Calm, useful, and honest

Earthy palette. Clear answers. No neon-green SaaS energy, no surprise charges, no clinical vibes. More like a well-designed plant shop in your pocket.

Species + health in one scan

Not just a name. Every scan returns a health score and care summary, so you know how the plant is really doing.

Treatment plans that stick

Numbered steps with timing, not a paragraph of guesswork. Isolate, mist, repot: whatever the plant needs, clearly.

Recovery Loop

The feature that doesn’t exist in PictureThis clones: track an issue over time and confirm the outcome.

Your garden, remembered

Save plants with nicknames, spaces, and care profiles. Watering reminders that live on your device.

Toxicity warnings, always free

Pet and human toxicity flags are never paywalled. Safety isn’t a premium upsell.

Privacy as a feature

We don’t harvest your plant photos to train models you don’t benefit from. Photos leave the device only when needed for a result.

Health, not hype

A score you can read at a glance

Health is 0-100, banded in a plant person’s palette: moss for thriving, warm amber for stable, terracotta when something needs care. Deliberately not traffic-light red/green.

  • 80-100 Thriving Deep moss green
  • 50-79 Stable Warm amber
  • 0-49 Needs care Terracotta

No weekly billing, ever. We think it’s a trap: easy to forget, hard to cancel. So we simply don’t offer it.

Trust

No dark patterns. No fine print games.

Plant apps have earned people’s skepticism: surprise charges, buried cancel buttons, identification locked behind a wall. Cambium’s free tier is real, cancellation lives in one place, and we don’t train on your plant photos.
