BirdNET Live¶

Bioacústica profesional en tu bolsillo.

BirdNET Live is a Flutter app built for field researchers, conservationists, and birders who need dependable acoustic evidence in the field. It runs the BirdNET+ audio classifier and geo-model directly on your device, so species identification works offline after installation.

Point Count Mode - Timed survey sessions with countdown timer and station metadata
Survey Mode - Long-running transect surveys with GPS tracking, background monitoring, and detection sampling
File Analysis Mode - Offline analysis of existing recordings (WAV, FLAC, MP3, OGG, and more)
Explore - Browse species expected at your location using the BirdNET geo-model
Session Library - Review, edit, and export past sessions with audio playback
Export - Raven Pro, CSV, JSON, GPX, and ZIP bundle formats with provenance metadata
On-device inference - BirdNET+ model coverage for 5,250 species, no internet required
FLAC recording - Compressed audio capture with smaller files for long surveys
Accessibility - Screen-reader labels, tooltips, and optional spoken detection announcements
Responsive layouts - Adaptive phone, tablet, portrait, and landscape interfaces
