Problem
Dog owners often lack objective, continuous health data for their pets, relying on visible symptoms that appear only after a condition has progressed. This delayed detection can lead to missed early intervention opportunities and increased veterinary costs.
Solution
Tether offers a preventive health intelligence platform that continuously monitors canine vital signs through a wearable sensor. The device captures metrics such as heart rate variability and other physiological indicators in real time. Collected data are processed by proprietary analytics to identify deviations from normal patterns and generate alerts for owners before overt symptoms emerge. Users can view health dashboards via a mobile app, enabling them to track trends, receive actionable insights, and consult veterinarians with objective data. By providing early warnings, Tether aims to improve health outcomes and give owners peace of mind.
Target Audience
