Overview / Description
CastDex is an AI sports tool that turns real fishing catches into a private, verified "FishDex" of species you've caught, built for anglers who want to track and collect without exposing their fishing spots. You log each catch with proof, conditions, and species identification, and CastDex automatically generates a species dossier and mastery progress for it. A key feature is GPS-safe shareable trophies: you can share a catch publicly while the app strips exact coordinates and uses private spot aliasing, so your honey holes stay yours. Progression works like a collection game, with mastery routes that reward you for documenting more species over time. The result is a personal fishing log plus a gamified species collection in one app. CastDex positions itself against social-first fishing apps by prioritizing location privacy over public maps and feeds. As an early-stage product launched in 2026, the catalog of species coverage and platform support is still maturing.
