She thought it was pollen. It was mold.

A North Texas viewer spent years treating the wrong allergy. WFAA is now live on the Pollen Sense Allergy Network, giving Dallas-Fort Worth viewers a daily breakdown of what's actually in the air.

Most people check their local allergy forecast the same way every day. High, low, take an antihistamine, move on.

One viewer in Texas did that for years. It never quite worked. She still felt awful on days the pollen count was low.

Then her local station started reporting something different. Not just “pollen is high.” A real breakdown of what’s in the air — powered by our APS400 sensor.

Turns out her problem wasn’t pollen. It was mold.

That one detail changed everything. She started tracking her symptoms against the daily reports. Brought the pattern to her doctor. Finally treated the right thing.

Fewer bad days. Less inflammation. A better quality of life.

That’s the whole point of what we do. “High” or “low” doesn’t help anyone. Knowing what’s actually in the air does.

It adds up for the whole community, too:

Fewer sick days
Less money wasted on the wrong meds
Healthier days outdoors

The news: WFAA in Dallas is now live on the Pollen Sense Allergy Network. North Texas viewers get this same level of detail, every day, in their local weather report.

If allergies have never quite made sense to you, watch WFAA. The answer might be one segment away.

A clearer, more helpful Pollen Wise home screen

We’ve been spending a lot of time reviewing feedback, reading survey responses, and looking closely at how people are using Pollen Wise. One common thread amongst the feedback and survey responses stuck out: people want the app to feel easier to understand at a glance, and more helpful in answering the question, “What should I care about right now?” That thinking shaped this latest update. This is a major refresh to the Pollen Wise home screen, and while we know there is still more to improve, this update is an important step. We’re continuing to build, refine, and learn, and your feedback is a big part of what helps us decide where to go next.

Incoming: Branches, Revisions, and Layers

Update: The data cutoff for legacy metrics data was changed from March 11 to March 23, 2026 6PM UTC. Data before that date will continue to be available for the forseeable future, however data after March 23, 2026 6PM UTC will no longer be present either in the legacy portal data viewer or via v1 APIs. Please use the V2 APIs and the Branch/Revision-powered data viewer in the portal for live incoming data

LLMs vs CNNs: Why Physical AI Starts With Data Infrastructure

When we say “AI” at Pollen Sense, most people assume we mean LLMs. We don’t. When people hear that Pollen Sense is building AI data infrastructure, the default assumption is usually large language models, chatbots, text generation, or conversational AI. That’s understandable given the moment we’re in. But it’s not what we mean when we say AI. At Pollen Sense, AI data infrastructure means Physical AI, machine learning systems that directly observe the real world, classify physical signals in real time, and convert them into structured, trustworthy data that other systems can reason on.
