BlindBook is the operating system for waterfowl hunting - a comprehensive platform that tracks every hunt, logs every bird, and helps make every season smarter. It includes web and mobile apps for outfitters, clubs, lease squads, and individual hunters.

How much does BlindBook cost?

BlindBook offers five pricing tiers: Free forever for individual hunters, $5.99/month for Hunters Pro (coming Fall 2026), $38/month for Lease Squads (up to 20 hunters), $125/month for Clubs (full management), and $179/month for Outfitters (currently free through Aug 2026). Annual plans offer savings.

WingID is BlindBook's AI-powered species identification feature that can identify waterfowl species, sex, and age class from photos. It supports 40+ species and provides confidence scoring.

Is there a mobile app?

Yes, BlindBook has native mobile apps for both iOS and Android. The apps allow hunters to log harvests, identify species, and access features in the field.

Does BlindBook charge booking fees?

No, BlindBook does not charge any per-booking or per-trip fees. We use a flat subscription pricing model, unlike competitor booking platforms that take a percentage of each transaction.

What are the 2025 duck season dates?

Duck season dates vary by state and zone. BlindBook maintains verified 2025-26 season dates for all 49 US states and 13 Canadian provinces. Visit blindbookai.com/seasons to find your state's specific opening and closing dates, bag limits, and zone information.

How do I log hunts in BlindBook?

Open the BlindBook app, tap "Log Hunt," and enter your location, date, and harvest details. The app auto-captures GPS coordinates, weather conditions, and shooting times. You can add photos and use WingID to identify species.

Does BlindBook work offline?

Yes, BlindBook's mobile apps support core functionality offline including hunt logging and species identification. Data syncs automatically when you regain connectivity.

What is WingID and how does it identify birds?

WingID is BlindBook's AI-powered species identification tool. Take a photo of a harvested bird's wing, and WingID identifies the species, sex, and age class using computer vision trained on waterfowl imagery. It supports 40+ North American species.

Can I manage my hunting club with BlindBook?

Yes, BlindBook's Club plan ($125/month or $1,200/year) includes full club management: member rosters, blind draw and rotation systems, harvest logging and compliance, property mapping, and the Command Center dashboard for administrators.
