Ranjeeth K A
Founder and editor, Sodate
Ranjeeth builds Sodate, the plant care app this directory supports, and compiles and edits every profile and ranked guide on the site. He designed the 100-point scoring rubric the guides run on and wrote the code that generates the rankings from structured data, which is why every guide can show its score breakdown and invite you to recompute it.
What he works on here
- Compiles each plant profile from the botanical and horticultural sources cited on every page
- Maintains the scoring code that generates all guide rankings, so no placement is chosen by hand
- Fact-checks toxicity per species against the ASPCA list rather than inferring it from plant family
- Handles corrections. If something here is wrong, it reaches him directly
What this site does not claim
Ranjeeth is not a credentialed horticulturist, and this site does not claim he is. The value here is in the structured research, the transparent rubric and the cited sources, not in professional plant credentials. Where a claim matters, the source is linked so you can check it yourself.
