Overview

Our client, a leading provider of smart pet care solutions, sought to create an integrated system that empowers pet owners to monitor their pets’ location, activity, and health in real-time. The objective was to develop a seamless experience spanning custom low-power hardware, intuitive mobile apps, and a secure cloud backend.

Challenge

The project demanded the design and manufacturing of durable, pet-safe hardware with reliable GPS and cellular connectivity, while also building a scalable software infrastructure. Key challenges included battery optimization, real-time data synchronization, and delivering actionable insights through a user-friendly interface.

Solution

We engineered a lightweight, waterproof tracker collar with multi-day battery life and developed companion iOS/Android apps for real-time location tracking, activity logging, and health alerts. The backend, built on AWS, ensures secure data storage and analytics, while a React-based web dashboard provides advanced controls for pet owners and veterinarians.

Results

The system launched to strong user adoption, reducing lost pet incidents by 60% and improving pet health metrics for over 5,000 households. Customer feedback highlights the ease of use, peace of mind, and actionable insights provided by the platform.
