About Identify Snakes

Identify Snakes exists for one nerve-wracking moment: you spot a snake near your home and need to know — right now — whether it's dangerous. We built the fastest, friendliest way to get that answer.

Snap a photo and our AI analyzes the snake's field marks against a library of species to give you a venomous-or-harmless verdict, a confidence score, and clear next steps. We pair that with detailed species profiles, a regional database of which snakes live where you do, and a no-nonsense snake-bite first-aid protocol.

We also believe most snakes deserve better than a shovel. The vast majority are harmless and quietly keep rodent and pest populations in check. Our goal is to replace fear with fast, accurate information — so people stay safe and harmless snakes get to live.
