Fishtechy Proof Ball 1.4" Version 3: AI-Powered Fish Measurement
Tape measures get wet. Hanging scales hurt fish. The Proof Ball does neither. Hold it or set it next to your catch, snap a photo or video, and the free Fishtechy app measures the fish for you. It is the most fish-friendly way we have seen to get an honest measurement on a trophy without keeping it out of the water any longer than it takes to grin at the camera.
Version 3 is the newest Proof Ball from Fishtechy: a 1.4" reference ball that gives the app's fish-measuring AI the scale it needs to get an accurate number from your phone.
How it works
1. Hold or place the Proof Ball next to your fish.
2. Take a clear photo or video and upload it to the Fishtechy app.
3. The app's AI measures the fish and identifies the species automatically.
4. Every catch logs to a private digital journal and map.
What you can do with it
- Measure from your phone: accurate length (fork or tail) and weight from a photo or video
- Automatic species ID: the app recognizes your fish for you
- Private catch journal and map: every fish you measure is logged and mapped, visible only to you
- Online tournaments: compete with real catches, privately with friends or publicly against anglers worldwide, or set up your own
- Verified Catchcards: customize what shows (length, weight, species and more) and share to the public feed or a friends-only feed
Better for the fish. No tape. No scale. No carrying the fish to a measuring board. The whole point of the Proof Ball is to get the answer fast and put the fish back faster.
