🌱 Coming soon — in development

The plant care app that knows your plant, your place, and your season.

Sodate is a quest-based plant care app for iOS and Android. Not fixed reminders — a daily list built from your climate, your region's season, what you already own, and what's actually urgent.

The core idea

Most plant apps run fixed intervals. Sodate doesn't.

"Water every 7 days" tells you to water in a rainstorm. Sodate's quest engine re-checks every trigger each morning — place, season, weather, safety, and what's already in your shed — before it ever asks you to do something.

31 things could be done today
You're home, it's Saturday−9 office/plot tasks
Monsoon, rain in 2 days−7 watering tasks
Dog in the house−2 tasks needing chemicals nearby
Neem oil is empty−1 blocked, shown as a shed item
Today's 4 quests, your daily capacity
Features

Everything a plant actually needs, none of the busywork it doesn't

A sample of what's built. Every feature below reflects real product design, not a wishlist.

📸

Camera light meter

Point your camera where a plant sits and get a real DLI (daily light integral) reading, not a guess like "bright indirect."

🔍

Photo diagnosis & ID

Under 85% confidence, Sodate asks a follow-up question instead of guessing — confidently wrong advice is worse than no advice.

🗣️

Voice, hands-free

"Watered the basil and the mint" logs both. Works in multiple languages, including code-switching between them mid-sentence.

🏠

Household sharing

See who watered what and when. Warns you before double-watering — "Priya watered Mo 2 hours ago."

📔

Plant passport

Full history — origin, waterings, illnesses, offspring, photos — that travels with the plant if you gift, sell, or move it.

📴

Works offline

Logging, photos, and quests are cached and queued. Nothing is lost in a field with no signal.

👥

Local community circle

Growers with your plants, in your climate — not global generic advice that ignores your season.

💊

Treatment courses

Multi-dose pest/disease treatments with tracking — "skipping dose 3 is why leaf miner comes back."

🧪

Water & soil testing

Reads your actual tap-water hardness and soil pH/EC — explains why more fertilizer won't fix a lockout problem.

📥

Import from other apps

Bring plants over from Planta, Greg, or a spreadsheet. Schedules are recalculated from measured light, not copied blindly.

🏷️

Tap-to-log tags

NFC pot tags or QR stickers — tap the pot, it logs a watering. No unlocking a phone, no finding the plant in a list.

📱

Widgets & voice assistants

Home screen, lock screen, and watch widgets. "Hey Siri, water Mo" logs it without opening the app.

Season model
Monsoon/dry in India, four temperate seasons in Europe, wet/dry in Lagos — not one hardcoded calendar
Hemisphere
Move from Bengaluru to Melbourne and every sowing window rebuilds — seasons invert, nothing carries over wrong
Local law
DPDP in India, GDPR in the EU, CCPA in California — privacy and pesticide-advice rules follow your actual region
Local pests & products
Mango hopper here, vine weevil in the UK, spotted lanternfly in the US — only shows actives registered in your state
Trust & safety

What Sodate won't do

Most plant-care advice online ignores that pesticide recommendations are legally regulated, and that children shouldn't be in an open community feed.

🔒 Kids & safety, built in from the start

Children get a profile inside a parent's household, not their own account — verifiable parental consent is required, community features are off permanently for anyone under 18, and there's no behavioral tracking or advertising to minors, full stop.

⚖️ Regulated advice, handled honestly

Cultural and physical pest controls are always given freely. Chemical control is bounded — Sodate only names actives registered for your crop in your region, never invents a dose, always defers to the product label, and shows the pre-harvest interval on anything edible. Beyond that, it connects you to a licensed advisor rather than guessing.

Pricing

What's free, what isn't, and why

Diagnosis is the only real per-use cost, so it's the only thing metered. Reminders and logging are never rationed. Pricing is set automatically by region.
