Frequently asked questions

How do I identify a toxic plant for my horse?

Take a photo of the plant in the Equio app: the AI suggests an identification, its toxicity level and the symptoms to watch for. When in doubt, contact your vet.

Is the identification 100% reliable?

No. The AI provides support with a confidence index, but a blurry photo or an atypical plant can be misleading. It is decision support, never a diagnosis.

Which plants are recognised?

The catalogue holds more than 100 plants toxic to horses: ragwort, foxglove, yew, oleander, lily of the valley, buttercup, autumn crocus, bracken and many more.

Is the app free?

Yes, a free plan lets you try identification and browse the catalogue. A Pro plan extends usage, managed through the App Store or Google Play.
