Problem
Many dog owners struggle to maintain their pets' health and fitness due to a lack of consistent tracking and motivation. Pet obesity and related health issues are prevalent, and owners often need more incentives to engage in regular exercise and responsible pet care.
Solution
Dogiz is a mobile application designed to help dog owners monitor and improve their pets' well-being through activity tracking and a rewards system. The app uses a proprietary algorithm to calculate a "Dogizscore," reflecting the dog's overall health and fitness compared to similar breeds and ages. Users earn Dogiz coins by tracking walks and completing in-app challenges, which can be redeemed for discounts on pet food, vet services, toys, and other pet-related products and services. Dogiz also promotes social responsibility by donating a meal to a dog shelter for every mile walked by its users.
