Premium is live + a free watering decision tool 🌱

by•

Hey Product Hunt! Quick update from PlantCareAI.

Premium launched. After spending a few months making the free tier genuinely useful, I've shipped the paid tier. Here's what's in it:

  • AI photo diagnosis: Snap a photo of a struggling plant, get a specific diagnosis and treatment plan. This is the feature I'm most proud of. It uses Claude Haiku under the hood and gives much more targeted advice than generic "check the soil" answers.

  • Unlimited plants: Free tier caps at 20, which is plenty for most people but a real limit if you're a serious collector.

  • CSV + PDF export: Your care history is yours to keep.

  • Plant Stories: A custom narrative into your plant's life from journal history

  • Priority support: Faster response from contact form

  • Custom themes: Elloquist-designed themes to match your vibe

$4.99/month or $39.99/year. Every new account gets a 30-day free trial, no credit card required.

Also shipping: a free watering decision tool. This one's for everyone. Answer 4 questions about what you can actually observe (e.g., soil feel, last watered, temperature, rain), and get a clear yes or no on whether to water today. Works for houseplants, succulents, cacti, outdoor shrubs, and wildflowers. No signup needed: plantcareai.app/tools/water-check

I'm still early... honest about that. If you've been following since launch, thank you. If you try Premium and have feedback, I personally read every reply here.
