Less guesswork. More growing.

A small ritual,
a happier plant.

Care should fit your home, not take it over.

01

Give it a home

Add your plant, its pot and its favourite spot. Choose the species yourself, or try AI-assisted photo identification.

02

Give it a tag

Place a Tipu tag by your plant. Tap with your phone, or scan its QR, to open the right care page.

03

Give it a moment

Check the soil, follow the guidance and log what you did. Tipu learns from your care history.

Small things, considered.

A little stake.
A lovely touch.

A soft droplet shape, an olive finish and a little white Tipu. Designed to sit quietly beside the plants you call home.

Soil stakeHanging droplet

Tap with a compatible phone to open your plant’s care page. No battery. No moisture sensor. Your plants also work without a tag.

Olive & white · Product concept. Final printed finish may vary.

A place for every little tag.

In the pot.
Or hanging beside it.

Two considered options for the first collection. Both are in development; hardware orders are not open yet.

In development

The Tipu stake

The rounded droplet you love, with a slim stake for your pot. Keep the NFC head above the soil for an easy tap.

  • Olive body with white Tipu lettering
  • Designed around a 25 mm NFC insert
  • Small flush cover on the back

In development

The hanging droplet

A small matching token for hanging planters and pot rims. A cord loop keeps it close to the right plant.

  • The same rounded olive-and-white style
  • A small hole for hanging cord
  • Optional pot-rim hook being explored

Concept images show the intended design. Physical fit, finish and NFC reading still need to be tested before sale. Final sizes, stock and attachment options will be confirmed.

Care with a little context.

Your home isn’t
like every other home.

01 / Adaptive care

A reminder to check,
not a rule to water.

Species, light, pot, soil and season shape your first care plan. “Still damp” is useful feedback, too. Schedules adjust gently as you learn what works.

02 / Plant doctor

A second pair of eyes
for a tired leaf.

Share a photo and a few details for possible causes and next steps. AI guidance is a starting point, with uncertainty made clear—not a guaranteed diagnosis.

03 / Shared care

One house.
Everyone on the same page.

See who checked or watered, and when. Fewer crossed wires. Less accidental double watering.

Go away. Let your plants stay happy.

A warm welcome
for your house sitter.

Choose the dates. Share a private link, QR or code. Your sitter sees the house’s plant jobs and marks them done.

They can care for your plants. They can’t change your account, billing or household settings. Access ends when you say it does.

Good to know

Small questions,
clear answers.

Do the tags measure moisture?

No. They open your plant’s page. You check the soil; Tipu helps you decide what to do and records your care.

Do I need to download an app?

No. Tipu runs in your mobile browser. Add it to your home screen for an app-like experience. Reminder support depends on your phone and permissions.

How do reminders reach my phone?

Open Reminders in Tipu and enable notifications. On iPhone, first add Tipu to your Home Screen and open it from that icon (iOS 16.4 or later). You can also choose email reminders. One daily summary is sent when soil checks are due; check the soil before watering. Delivery depends on connectivity and your phone settings.

Will NFC work with my phone?

Compatible NFC phones can open a tag’s web link. We’ll test a range of iPhones and Android phones before the tags go on sale. Every tag also has a QR fallback.

Can I use Tipu without buying tags?

Yes. Tags make it easier to reach the right plant; the app and care plan also work on their own.

What can a sitter see?

Only the plant names, locations, care instructions and relevant care status for their visit. No owner email, billing, account controls or private photo journal.

When can I buy it?

We’re preparing the first local tag kits. Final stock, delivery timing and finished tag designs are still to be confirmed.
