Keep everything in one calm, organized place, and turn scattered notes and lab results into clear trends you can act on. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Record the vet visit, get an AI summary — With the vet's permission, record the conversation and let AI transcribe and summarize it. Never forget what the vet said again. (Premium) • Ask the AI health assistant — Ask anything about your pet's health and get clear answers drawn from your pet's own data. Understand what changing lab values mean and when it's time to call your vet. • Scan bloodwork instantly — Snap a photo of your pet's lab results to digitize them, then follow creatinine, SDMA, glucose and every value as easy-to-read trends over time. • Track daily care in seconds — Log medications, fluids, food, water, weight and symptoms, and set medication reminders so you never miss a dose. • Share with family and your vet — Invite family members or your veterinarian to view or co-edit your pet's record, so everyone stays on the same page.
