I would like to specialize an image recogniser on certain type of symbols such as “@” and similar. since the prebuilt image recogniser describes it generally as “logo” or “symbol”. i have tried to incllude a data source (using google sheet) but I didn’t get any farer. has anyone any suggestions on how I could build an image recognising app that is able to tell in detail what kind of symbol is presented?

I think you would need to use an API that you send an image to and it returns a definition. I tried doing that with [Microsoft’s AI for Earth API](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/ai/ai-for-earth-tech-resources) but it was too hard for me to figure out in Thunkable and besides, it’s only for plants and animals.

I don’t know of another image recognition API out there that would do what you want but it’s very possible one exists.
