How photo ID works

Is fish identification free?

Answer in brief

CatchVault’s fish identification is free and unlimited. The app is free to download; an optional Pro plan ($6.99 a month or $39.99 a year in the US, after a one-week trial) adds unlimited AI assistant messages and a 7-day hourly forecast, not more IDs.

Free on every account

  • Species identification, unlimited.
  • LiDAR or AI length from the same photo.
  • Catch log.
  • State regulation summaries.

What to watch for in other apps

A handful of free scans followed by a paywall is common in this category. Check the scan limit before you rely on an app at the water.

Questions & answers

Does CatchVault limit how many fish I can identify?
