What people are saying

"This is so cool, I was able to use the Be My AI feature to tell if my habanero peppers were ripe. It told me that they were green, but it also told me that the plant had some holes in the leaves, indicating I have a pest problem. So I treated my plant and hopefully saved it. Thanks so much for this incredible app!”

Dave, Be My Eyes user

“For years, I've had loads of photos in my Dropbox but didn't know what they were. Be My AI’ image descriptions have allowed me to start naming them so I can at last share them with others. It's marvelous! This really is a game-changer for me!”
