PYP view Ages 6–11
Friendly, colorful, icon-based. A plant "mood" anyone can read.
How it works
A living laboratory. No setup required.
HeyPlant is a complete plant-phenomics platform built for learning. Laboratory-grade sensors read what a plant is actually experiencing — and an intelligent, IB-aligned curriculum engine turns those live signals into ready-to-teach science. It isn't a model or a simulation. It's the plant's own voice, made visible for learners aged 6 to 19.
Listen to the whole plant.
| Zone | What it senses | What students discover |
|---|---|---|
| Leaf & Canopy | Transpiration, leaf temperature, chlorophyll & light | Photosynthesis and water loss, happening in real time |
| Stem & Transport | Sap flow, electrical signals, tissue impedance | How plants move water — and how they respond to touch, heat, and wounding |
| Root Zone | Root biomass, water uptake | How roots grow and drink beneath the soil |
| Substrate | Soil moisture, nutrients (optional) | The chemistry of plant nutrition, as it's used up |
| Environment | Light, spectrum, humidity, temperature | The microclimate that shapes every plant response |
All sensors stream at once, so students can overlay a biopotential spike onto a transpiration curve — the kind of systems thinking real scientists do.

The same hardware, three interfaces — so the tool grows with the learner.
MYP view Ages 11–16
Multi-variable graphs, selectable sensor pairs, annotation, data export.
DP & University view Ages 16+

AI curriculum engine
The lesson plan that writes itself.
HeyPlant includes an AI assistant that already knows the IB framework, your sensor configuration, and your grade level. Ask it for what you need in plain language and it builds a complete, ready-to-teach investigation.
1
Tell it your grade, subject, and sensor.
2
Get a full investigation — student worksheet, teacher notes, and a rubric aligned to IB criteria.
3
Customize it and save it to your own library, or share it with your department.
You: "Create a Grade 9 MYP Chemistry lab using the nitrate electrode to explore ion uptake, hitting Criteria B and C."
→ A print-ready student guide, complete with data tables, safety notes, and rubric links.
Bring your own plant.
Mimosa pudica
Visible movement and biopotential spikes. The best demo plant there is.
Tomato or bean
Easy to grow, ideal for long-term investigations.
Arabidopsis
For advanced DP and university genetics links.
Anything in your garden
The system works on the plants you already have.
