Self-hosted, AI-powered plant care. Photograph a plant and Verdant identifies it, builds a care profile, and keeps watch: health trends, care logs, weather-aware advice, and a daily tip from its AI botanist. It runs entirely on your own hardware, on your home network, with not a byte of your garden living on someone else's cloud.
Upload a photo and NVIDIA NIM vision identifies the species with a confidence score, then seeds the care profile.
A health score charted over time, alongside the history of every watering, feeding, and repotting, both built from the full care log.
Daily care advice tailored to your collection, plus a plant doctor that works back from the symptoms you describe to a likely cause and a fix.
Two small Docker containers on a machine you own. PocketBase keeps your data in a SQLite file on your disk: LAN-only, no cloud, no telemetry, no accounts farm.
Live local weather via Open-Meteo drives climate-aware recommendations and temperature, humidity & precipitation cues per room or zone.
AI is an assistant, never a dependency: writes never wait on it, and the app degrades gracefully to local cache and safe fallbacks when offline.
Verdant OS is self-hosted, single-household software. It lives on an always-on machine on your home network and is reached by every device in the house. There's no public instance; you run your own. Want to talk about it or get it running?
