FaunaNote: Animal Identifier

Scan real animals, get a likely species ID, and grow one global collection across birds, mammals, insects, reptiles, fish, and more—free, with no account.

Turn real animal sightings into a collection that grows with you. Photograph a bird, mammal, insect, spider, reptile, amphibian, fish, mollusk, crustacean, or another animal and get a likely species identification.

SCAN ANIMALS AROUND YOU

Photograph a real animal Use the in-app camera for wildlife, pets, or zoo sightings. If no clear animal is detected, FaunaNote asks you to try another photo.

Get a likely species ID FaunaNote suggests up to three possible matches with confidence. Results can be wrong, so you can review the common name, scientific name, and visible evidence before saving.

Build one global collection Every species becomes one collectible entry. A zoo, pet, and wild sighting of the same species all add to that species instead of creating artificial duplicates or rarity.

Explore every animal group Browse birds, mammals, insects, arachnids, reptiles, amphibians, fish, mollusks, crustaceans, and more. Search your discoveries and see repeat sightings.

Keep a personal sighting log Save optional context and notes for each observation. Edit or delete your local entries whenever you like.

Map sightings privately When you save an animal and allow location access, FaunaNote can add a private approximate place to your on-device map. Location is optional and never blocks a save.

Stay curious Open a species card to revisit its common and scientific names, animal group, sightings, notes, context, and a short fact.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

Your saved collection, notes, and approximate places stay on this device. For species identification, FaunaNote sends the captured photo through the app service hosted on Vercel to Google Vertex AI for processing. See the Privacy Policy for provider details and possible service-security retention.
