About Us
Healing Plants of the World began with the founder's personal use of medicinal plants in the Andes to heal body, mind, spirit, nature, and even animals. Later, during a branding project at the School of Visual Arts in New York, it became clear this wisdom is urgently needed and at risk of disappearing as elders and shamans pass away. The idea grew further through an AI seminar at Stanford and is now supported by a small but growing group of collaborators.
Our goal is to create a living, ethical AI archive to preserve and share ancestral plant knowledge with care. Guided by cultural respect and biodiversity protection, our work will help people:
We are now focused on three priorities: building a curated list of plants to launch, developing learning products that make plant wisdom accessible, and gathering information from oral and written sources not yet online. Our long-term vision is to design an ethical AI portal where global plant wisdom comes together—accessible, multilingual, and safeguarded for generations to come.
