We respect what Tides4Fishing does well. Here is exactly where we're different and where we're not.
Solunar tables are a 1926 lookup. They worked then because no one had real catch data to test them against. The model showed us "incoming tide on a spring beats moon phase as the strongest single signal" before we hand-coded it — and that's the kind of insight Solunar tables structurally cannot produce.
Yes — the live map, bite score, 7-day forecast and spot pages are free to browse with no account. Logging catches and getting push notifications when peaks open requires a free account. There is no paid tier today.

A multi-input neural network trained on millions of real catches across over 1,000 species — not a Solunar lookup. Inputs include wind, swell, tide stage, where the warm-cold water edges are, what the current is doing, moon phase, and a couple of dozen other features per hour. The model has been validated against catch data we held back from training. The catches keep coming in, so the model keeps getting sharper.
Fishare is a Progressive Web App (PWA) — open fishare.app in mobile Safari or Chrome, then 'Add to Home Screen'. It runs offline, sends push notifications, and stays in sync without an app-store install. Native iOS / Android builds are on the roadmap.
Fishare tracks your home spots and pings you when the next 3-hour peak window opens. Log catches and blanks to teach the model your local patterns. Free forever for everyone who joins now.
