What animal is this?
If you kaught it, you'd know it.

Live now on iPhone and Android · free to start
You'll walk past a hundred species this week. You'll recognise maybe five.
Kaught is for the other ninety-five.
The wild world is busier than it looks. Kaught helps you meet it, know it, and care about it.
Capture
The moment it's kaught.
Aim the coral scan frame, tap once, and watch the species reveal itself: name, type and rarity. It's the satisfying payoff that makes you want to go outside again.
- Identify an animal by photo in about a second
- A reveal smooth enough to screen-record and share
- Rarity tiers: common, rare, epic and legendary
Collection
Your whole wild world, colour-coded.
Every catch drops into a grid you actually want to fill. A living field journal of every animal you've met, with a colour for every type. Not animals you own; encounters you remember.
- Track every animal you've seen, with dates and counts
- First-catch badges mark every new species
- Empty slots quietly invite the next discovery
Map
See what lives near you.
Open the map to find out what animals live near you: what's been caught around you, and where. The fox in the park, the kingfisher by the river. The wild world, mapped by the people exploring it.
- Discover which species are active near you right now
- See where each catch happened, down to the park
- A community of explorers, not just a lonely camera
Every species, explained
Know exactly what you're looking at.
Tap any catch for the full story: size, weight, habitat, behaviour and its type, whether insect, reptile, bird, mammal, amphibian or fish, with a second type when it fits. The more you can name, the more you notice, and the more you want to protect.
- Clear, readable species cards, no biology degree needed
- Types and double-types add a playful, collectable layer
- Safety flagged first: is this spider venomous? You'll know.

Identify with confidence
Is this spider venomous? Is this snake poisonous?
When it matters most, Kaught answers fast. Every dangerous-species card leads with the safety facts, so you can keep a safe distance, not guess.
Most household spiders are completely harmless. Kaught tells you which ones, and which to leave well alone.
Identify the snake from a safe distance and see straight away whether it's venomous.
What insect is this in my house? Snap it and find out in seconds, no squashing required.
Identify anything wild
What bug, bird or beast is this?
If it's wild, Kaught knows it. One animal identifier for every major group, with no separate bug app, bird app and snake app.
Everything in one app
Everything you need.
Nothing you don't.
You came for the wonder, not a feature list. But here it is anyway.
Identify by photo
Point, shoot, know. An AI animal identifier trained on thousands of wild species names it in about a second.
Types & double-types
Insect, reptile, bird, mammal: every animal gets a type, and a second when it fits. A playful, collectable layer.
Rarity, common to legendary
Every catch is graded common, rare, epic or legendary, so a lucky find actually feels lucky.
First-catch badges
A special badge the first time you meet a species. Your collection remembers every first.
The map
See what animals live near you and where each catch happened. A world mapped by the people exploring it.
Yours & private
Your collection is yours. Synced across your devices, never sold, never used to train anything.
Questions
What people ask before
they get Kaught.
Can I download Kaught yet?
Yes, on both. Kaught is live on the App Store for iPhone and on Google Play for Android. It's free to start, and you don't need an account to identify your first animal.
What animal is this, can Kaught really tell me from a photo?
Yes. Point your camera at the animal, take a photo, and Kaught identifies the species in about a second: bug, bird, spider, snake, fish, reptile, mammal or amphibian. It's trained on thousands of wild species and tells you how confident it is.
Is this spider venomous? Is this snake poisonous?
Safety comes first. For spiders, snakes and other animals where it matters, the species card leads with whether it's dangerous, so you can identify it from a safe distance and act accordingly.
What insect is this in my house?
Kaught works indoors as well as out. Snap the bug on your wall, windowsill or in the bath and it identifies the insect, and tells you whether it's harmless before you decide what to do with it.
Is there a Pokémon-style app for real animals?
Kaught is the closest thing: the satisfying feeling of catching and completing a collection, but with real species you find yourself, in the real world. Types, rarity and first-catch badges make it a game; the animals are entirely real.
What's the best app to identify wild animals?
Most apps cover only one group: just birds, or just plants. Kaught identifies animals across every major group and keeps them in a wildlife collection you build over time, so it's a single animal identifier and nature tracker in one.
Is Kaught free? Do I need an account?
Kaught is free to start. You won't need an account just to identify an animal. A free account saves your collection and syncs it across devices, and a subscription unlocks unlimited catches and the full map.
The next thing you see could be
your first catch.
