Every catch counts.
For you – and for the planet

Fishbuddy is the only recreational fishing app directly contributing
to SDG14 – Life Below Water.

By helping you catch the fish, we help save the fish

Since launching under the name Fiskher in 2020, more than 900,000 downloads have downloaded the app that tells you what to catch where and how.

Fishbuddy by Fiskher will provide expert advice from the best anglers in each country where the app is launched. So far we are live in Scandinavia, Germany, The Netherlands and Florida, but still scaling and aiming for newer territories.

Citizen science made simple

Citizen science made simple – You catch fish. We log the data. The oceans get smarter. Fishbuddy provides valid, high-quality data for both fishers and authorities – turning each user into a citizen scientist. Our patented technology lets users log catches simply by taking a photo with their phone. This not only improves the fishing experience but also contributes valuable data for sustainability and life below water.

93% of users say they would share catch data if it’s easy – so we made it easier than ever.

Partnered with the Norwegian Coast Guard

We use our technology to monitor fishing activity and protect biodiversity.

​​Fishbuddy is contracted by the Norwegian Coast Guard to provide cutting-edge, patented AR and AI technology. Our solutions enable efficient and accurate fish stock assessment, monitoring, and reporting, ensuring compliance with regulations while promoting sustainable ocean stewardship.

Helping governments replace manual inspections with AI

More insight, lower cost, and better sustainability.

Coastal recreational fishing is mostly free, and therefore largely unreported – leaving authorities with limited data on fish stocks and ecosystem health. Governments today spend heavily on monitoring, but still struggle with gaps in managing fisheries sustainably.

Current practice is outdated and lacks innovation, leading to inefficient management and dramatic changes in fishing stocks all over the world.
