Clear answers about how PETZ works, what it is for, and how it relates to veterinary care.
PETZ is an AI-powered preventive pet-health platform that helps pet parents understand their pet's health, identify areas that may need attention and receive personalized recommendations based on the information they provide.
You answer a series of questions about your pet, including their age, breed, weight, diet, lifestyle, activity, medical history and other health information. PETZ analyzes those inputs and generates personalized health insights and recommendations.
No. PETZ is designed for health education, preventive awareness and personalized guidance. It does not replace a veterinarian or provide a medical diagnosis. If you believe your pet is unwell, you should consult a licensed veterinarian.
Depending on your pet, PETZ may ask about age, breed, weight, diet, exercise, lifestyle, vaccination history, medical history, existing conditions, medication, behaviour, and symptoms or changes you've noticed.
No. PETZ can be designed for multiple companion animals, beginning with dogs and cats and potentially expanding to other pets in the future.
PETZ can help you organize information about an existing issue and identify areas that may deserve attention or discussion with your veterinarian. It should not be used to self-diagnose, treat or replace professional veterinary care.
That's exactly when preventive care can be most valuable. PETZ can help identify opportunities to improve nutrition, activity, weight management, preventive care and other aspects of your pet's long-term health.
Not at the initial launch. PETZ will initially build its health assessment using information provided by the pet parent. Over time, we plan to introduce deeper health-data layers, potentially including diagnostic testing and biomarkers.
PETZ is designed to provide evidence-informed health insights based on the information available. However, AI-generated information can never capture everything about an individual animal. Veterinary examination and professional clinical judgment remain essential where medical concerns exist.
PETZ should protect personal and pet information using appropriate security and privacy practices. See our Privacy Policy for what information is collected, why it is collected and how it is used.
Your pet's health changes over time. We envision PETZ becoming more useful as you continue updating your pet's profile and health information rather than treating the assessment as a one-time result.
