What we're working on.
Build updates, launches, and the occasional plant story.
What comes after garden sharing
Garden sharing has shipped, and the work underway now is multi-angle capture. It identifies a plant from several photos of different parts and chooses the species they agree on, which helps most where a single photo is ambiguous.
The app's guides are moving to the web
We are copying the care content inside Raychis across to the website and publishing it as guides, a wave at a time. Early users have also asked for changes in the app.
Raychis is live
Raychis is out. Download it free on the App Store and Google Play, and put a plant in front of it.
Launch is coming
Raychis has a release date. It ships on Wednesday 29 July 2026, with the build already through review at both stores.
The beta is open
We're looking for gardeners to test Raychis before it launches. Early builds, a direct line to the team, and a say in what ships.
What a rachis is, and why the app is called Raychis
The rachis is the central stem of a compound leaf, the axis its leaflets branch from. What the word means, how to say Raychis, and why we chose it.
