Search Livestock Brand By Photo | Find Cattle Brands By Picture

How To Use

Upload a clear, well-lit photo of a livestock brand. The search works best with images where the brand is clearly visible and in focus. You can upload photos in common formats including PNG, JPG, WebP, or GIF. The system automatically processes and optimizes your image for search, so you don't need to worry about file size or dimensions.

Once you upload your photo, the system will display a list of matching brands ranked by visual similarity. Each result shows the brand image, owner name, registration state, and other relevant details. Click on any brand to view more information, including registration details, location data, and options to order custom merchandise featuring the brand. Learn more about how to read and interpret livestock brands.

If your initial search doesn't return the exact brand you're looking for, try uploading a different angle or a higher quality image. The system works best when the brand design is clearly visible and not obscured by shadows, dirt, or other elements. Alternatively, you can search by drawing if you remember the brand design but don't have a photo. For more tips, see our guide on livestock branding guidelines.

How It Works

Our image recognition system uses advanced computer vision algorithms to analyze the shape, symbols, and characteristics of your uploaded brand image. The system compares your photo against thousands of registered brands across multiple state brand registries, finding the closest visual matches based on similarity.

The technology works by extracting key visual features from your uploaded image, including shapes, lines, curves, and symbol patterns. These features are then compared against our comprehensive database of registered livestock brands using sophisticated matching algorithms that can identify similarities even when brands aren't identical.

Whether you have a photograph of a brand on livestock, a scanned image from brand registration documents, or a picture you took at a ranch, our visual search technology can help you identify matching brands in our database. The system is designed to handle various image qualities and lighting conditions, making it versatile for different types of brand photos.

Privacy and Security

We take your privacy and the security of your uploaded images seriously. When you upload a photo to search for livestock brands, your image is processed securely and is not stored permanently on our servers. The image data is used solely for the purpose of performing the visual search and is deleted after processing is complete.

All image uploads are transmitted over encrypted connections (HTTPS) to ensure your data remains secure during transmission. Our image recognition system processes your photos in a secure environment and does not share your uploaded images with third parties or use them for any purpose other than brand search.

The search results displayed are based on publicly available brand registration data from official state brand registries. We do not collect or store personal information from your uploaded images, and your search activity is not linked to your identity unless you choose to create an account or make a purchase.
