Meet HeyPlant — the first plant that talks back

What is your plant feeling right now?

HeyPlant turns real, living plant signals into real science — for every grade, every subject, every curious mind.

Interactive demo · Mimosa #4
Your plant is feeling: calm biopotential, mV · simulated

Real data.

Not a simulation — actual plant physiology, live, from the plant on your bench.

Every grade.

One system, ages 6 to 19. The interface grows up as your students do.

IB-ready.

Every sensor and every investigation pre-mapped to PYP, MYP, and DP criteria.

One plant. Every level of curiosity.

Same sensors, same living plant — the interface grows up with your students.

PYP · Ages 6–11

"Can our plant tell us when it's thirsty?"

Interface: color-coded "plant mood" display
MYP · Ages 11–16

"Does the plant react differently to touch than to heat?"

Interface: dual-axis graphs, annotation, export
DP & University · Ages 16+

"How fast does a wound-induced signal travel through Mimosa pudica?"

FFT · mV · CSV
Interface: raw traces, FFT, stats, CSV export
The moment

The instant a plant reacts, science stops being a subject.

For most students, a plant is a decoration. Then they touch a leaf, watch the screen jump, and everything changes. Suddenly the plant is responding to them — and they want to know why, and what happens if they change the light, the water, the temperature. That curiosity is the beginning of every scientist. HeyPlant is built to spark it on day one, and to carry it all the way to publishable, IB-assessed research.

A family gathered around a living plant exhibit, watching its biosignal data appear in real time on a nearby screen.

From plant to discovery in three steps.

Plug in.

Attach the sensors to almost any plant. Setup takes minutes.

Watch.

The dashboard shows the plant's live signals in real time.

Discover.

Students ask questions, design experiments, and collect real data — guided by a curriculum library already mapped to the IB.

Curriculum advantage

We did the curriculum mapping so you don't have to.

Every HeyPlant investigation is already aligned to IB assessment criteria — with sample inquiry questions, student worksheets, teacher notes, and rubrics ready to print. Tell the built-in AI lesson builder your grade, subject, and sensor, and get a complete, ready-to-teach investigation in seconds.

Real classrooms. Real reactions.

We're running pilots right now — this is where their stories will live.

First student and teacher reactions will land here as our pilot classrooms and museum partners go live.
