FaunaDex

FaunaDex performs semantic species retrieval on animal photos by matching visual descriptions with a vector search. Instead of lengthy training on individual photos of each species, the database can be expanded simply by adding more embeddings. Give it a try!

Demo photos use cached descriptions. User-uploaded photos will follow the description > embedding pipeline.
