Wildlife Semantic Search with BioCLIP

Welcome to Ecologist – an AI-powered biodiversity explorer!

Ecologist identifies wildlife species found in your selected country from an uploaded photo.

Powered by multimodal image retrieval and visual encoding with BioCLIP, the system extracts features from the image and matches them against a specialized database of the country's diverse flora and fauna.

Both scientific and common names are provided within seconds, along with visually similar images that offer context about the country's rich natural heritage.

Ecologist is a step towards celebrating and preserving the world’s unique wildlife through AI.
