We report the discovery and spectroscopic classification of five new supernovae from PTF (ATel #1964; http://www.astro.caltech.edu/ptf). The supernovae were discovered by Oarical, an autonomous software framework of the PTF collaboration and by the users of Galaxy Zoo Supernovae, a citizen science project (http://supernova.galaxyzoo.org; Smith et al. 2010, arXiv 1011.2199), based on observations made with the Palomar 48-inch Oschin Schmidt telescope.
