Our Story

Born from a passion for mushrooms and the challenge of safe identification

Our journey began with a simple observation: mushroom identification is not easy for everyday foragers and nature lovers. Field guides can be overwhelming, and online information is often unclear, leaving many unsure about the mushrooms they encounter.

Driven by a passion for fungi, our founder—an experienced enthusiast with years of field practice—wanted to create a more accessible way to recognize mushrooms safely. We realized that true identification requires more than visual comparison; it needs regional context, safety awareness, and easy-to-use technology.

This led to the creation of our AI-powered mushroom identifier. By combining artificial intelligence with practical fungal knowledge, we aim to make mushroom recognition clearer, safer, and more reliable. At the heart of our story is one principle: when in doubt, caution comes first.
