Can anyone recommend me an app/ website for automatic moss IDing? (slrpnk.net)

I often use plantnet.org for plants whenever I'm outside, and it works really really well. Sadly, not for mosses.

Is there a service out there that's specialized in mosses and similar stuff?

Because they all look the damn same for someone without experience 😭

If there isn't anything, can you recommend me other resources where I can learn it myself? What characteristics should I look out for to narrow it down to the species? The subspecies isn't that important for me :)

For mushrooms I use champignouf.com, which works quite well too. It only works for macroscopic ones and their fruiting bodies of course.

I'm too afraid of machines messing up in this. First time I used ChatGPT it literally tried to kill me with an explosion (chemical procedure description done obviously wrong and dangerous; fortunately I asked about something I wrote myself), and with mushroom id it's even simpler than with chemistry.
