It’s been great watching StickyBeak AI, our AI-powered conservation tool built with the Tasmanian Land Conservancy, make noise in the media over the past few weeks. From national news coverage to TV features – we’ve been featured across a wide media landscape.

Stickybeak AI, part of the WildTracker program, is genuinely changing how conservation happens in Tasmania. The tool uses AI to crunch through the massive volume of images captured by camera traps across private properties, automatically sorting out the wildlife shots from thousands of photos of swaying branches and shadows. What used to take volunteers and ecologists countless hours of tedious clicking is now done in minutes, freeing them up to do what they do best – actually getting out there and improving habitats.

The numbers speak for themselves. Stickybeak has already processed hundreds of thousands of images, spotting everything from obvious wildlife to those perfectly camouflaged critters that even trained eyes might miss. We’re working on some exciting updates too, including the ability to track individual animals based on their unique markings – imagine being able to follow the journey of a specific Tasmanian devil or monitor how invasive species are moving through the landscape.

It’s fantastic to see Stickybeak’s story shared so widely, not just because it showcases what we can build, but because it shows how the right technology can amplify the incredible work conservationists are already doing on the ground.
