Someone who doesn't have a dog has zero incentive to download this app. A better route would be a database of snout pics that's available to vets and animal rescue organizations. Dog owners pay an annual fee to have their dog on the database.
Me thinks you should get in contact with them and charge 50p per dog upload because THAT is a GOOD idea to get their database up there where they need it.
My boy Smokey was stolen February 10th 2023 my heart is still broken. I cry every day. I’ve never felt so helpless I would do anything to get him back. Hope these type tools grow and help.
Umm, why didn't they just add a Notification feature to the App...?? So whenever a dog goes missing, the owner hits a 'My dog is missing' button on the app, and everyone who has the app gets a notification. Everyone app user in that area then starts keeping an eye out for the dog. Solves the problem of people not looking at the app often enough...
Yeah also haves a automatically share button for people to auto share straight onto their social media, especially facebook. This will also attract new people to download app.
Exactly what i was thinking and also you can even add a reward. That way even non-dog owners will be incentivezd to download the app and maybe make some cash?
They said each time they get publicity they get loads of downloads. They have a great idea but know nothing about the app but it’s probably there side hustle and have jobs but leave the app to the app tech guy. They aren’t businessmen. Most creative people with good ideas need somebody who’s good at business. Not everyone but a lot of the best even. Like Elon musks marketing has people believing he’s the smartest man on earth who’s saving it by making cars for rich folks
I guess it would rely on them selling the dog on. The new owner would check their nose on the app and see if they’re someone’s missing dog or not. Like when you buy a car and you check its history. Trouble is by this point the person would have already paid the money for the dog
Most owners would be happy to reimburse the new buyer to get their doggo back. Or if it became ubiquitous, people would use it before parting with any money to make sure it was a legit sale and start to close down the opportunities to make money from stealing dogs
The owner should be made to pay a fee to the finder, of which this company takes a cut; with ad revenue, it would be more lucrative. It would also incentivise people to report missing dogs. If lots of people post snouts hoping to make a little cash, then more owners would join, growing the platform.
Make it an app for all vets in the country to use, when the dog comes in for check ups etc, scan the nose, see if the details match with the current owner. Job done. Would probably solve 90% of the lost/stolen dogs.
This app relies on whomever finds the dog to have the same app installed too. Trackers are always better because u can trace last steps and have the route on a gps map
And they're trying to combat theft -- so they're relying on people who've just bought a dog to use the app and risk losing their money and "their" dog. Not gonna happen.
Yeah selling to the average Joe doesn't seem like it would work. I'm not a missing dog hunter so I don't want it. I also don't find that many stray dogs where I'm at. I'd never have a reason to use it.
This idea doesn't seem to help with preventing dog theft at all. For someone who finds a lost dog, they'd have to know about this app in the first place, and then there's no sure way to tell if the dog is listed there without checking. Honestly, what's far more effective is a simple dog tag with contact info and a chip implanted. There’s perhaps just a few niche cases where this app may be more effective like maybe finding out if the dog someone is selling to you is stolen or not.
Cool and usefull, but it seems like it taps into a just slice of the problem, thats why best move for them might be to find someone much larger who does chips or any type of dog security and sell the whole concept and what they developed so far, to include it in their overall dog security.
The Dog shelters, Dog rescuers, and all Veterinarians would be great if they had the app in case a dog was brought in rescued or found on the street or if someone said they found a dog, all they have to do is scan the dog's nose and find that dog's rightful owner.
this is an add-on acquisition play for a nextdoor type platform, that’s really the only way it works on the consumer side unfortunately, that makes it a feature not a business
1. But they're primarily trying to deter theft. That would only work if people who wanted to buy a dog had the app, and probably they don't. 2. An app can't do that. If you want to GPS-track something, that thing has to have a GPS receiver installed on it, and communications equipment to report the position back to the system. The only way to do that is to mount a tracker on the dog's collar -- it can't be implanted in the dog because it's too big, it needs batteries that must be recharged every few days, and GPS receivers need line of sight to the satellites (which is why GPS doesn't work indoors unless you're close to a window). If your dog runs away, a GPS tracking collar can help to find it. If your dog is stolen, the first thing they'll do is remove the collar.
@@RelaxedPandaSpamwich They came in and said their system was aimed at stopping dogs from getting stolen. In that scenario, who (besides the dog's owner) is using the app? It's not the thief, and the only other person in the equation is the person the thief sells the dog to. If it's an amber alert system, how's that supposed to work? Somebody posts on the app that their black labrador has gone missing. What are other app users supposed to do? Confront everyone within ten miles who they see walking a black labrador and demand to take a photo of the dog's nose?
Another 'tech' company whose only product is an app outsourced by 'the app company'. Also why is this an app and not a website, this would solve a big issue. Would work better to work with vets and charities to build a central database / hub they can all access. It also doesn't inspire a lot of confidence in the efficacy of the product if they have a free and premium option. If the premium is worth pay for then the free option isn't good enough, and if it's not good enough it doesn't solve anything.
Dog finding products like these will ALWAYS get flack from the comments section. It would be best if these guys worked directly with the police. I would also say that noone would have any incentive to pay money to take pictures of their dogs ESPECIALLY if you've just told us that the main fingerprint of the dog is purely the snout. What's the point in taking pictures of the rest of the dog and their face?
It's a good idea. Implemented wrong. replacing the chip and charge the owners annually to have their dog on a mandatory database and use the app for vets, shelters, kennels, dog wardens ( who should do the equivalent of a roadside check where dog walkers usually go... legit dog owners would be happy to oblige ) Border control, police etc to id the dog. Not all missing dogs are stolen. A Stolen dog is going to be a problem if you cannot take it anywhere or go to a vet. I believe this way it could make money.
They need to do a tie up with vets practices or a pet food manufacturer, perhaps both. This is a brilliant idea but there's probably no money in it. Not all good ideas can be turned into a business.
I hope this is common sense but be very cautious about going up to dogs you don't know because you never know if they're reactive or don't have their shots
AirTags are not technically GPS devices.. it's a bluetooth device that has to be within range of an iPhone that support the airtag.... iPhones create a mesh network and reports the location when an AirTag is within range, reportedly between 10 to 30 metres.. it doesn't work if tag is not in range of a supported iPhone.
The entire idea makes zero sense. How would a third party know a dog was stolen and not purchased? How are you going to snap a close up photo of a stolen dog? What if the rightful owner doesn't use the app? It's ridiculous.
So it's relying on people manually comparing photos of the dogs' noses? Each one may be unique but how impressive do they think people's sight is? Like trying to judge a fingerprint just by the naked eye via looking at the finger itself rather than an actual print to compare to another print.
Why would I pay a premium for the AI facial recognition thing? They said at the start that the noseprint photo already perfectly identifies the dog. Even if the facial recognition is also perfect (spoiler: it isn't), it's not adding anything.
Good idea but could it work? People coming back to the app was a great point, they wont. And anyone could also copy this idea.. can see why they didnt get an investment but good luck to them
I knew these guys were not too bright the second I looked at them because I saw him have a big dog on the worst leash possible. Extender leads are for idiots
Thwy dont need everyone tonhave the app, just placrs that lost dogs get taken too i. e shelters. Thwn oerhaps a reward for finding my dog paymwnt feature of which they take a %

Classic autistic outside the box thinking❤

And make it a website. There is no reason for it to be an app, the same technology can be hosted within the web.

License the platform to RSPCA and ASPCA groups, local dog licensing authorities to use when registering pets, vets, etc.

That's exactly what I was thinking. Could go out to everyone within say a 5km radius for example.

I don't get it: If someone has stolen your dog, the thief is not going to then go onto an app to see if you have reported the dog missing.
I guess it would rely on them selling the dog on. The new owner would check their nose on the app and see if they’re someone’s missing dog or not. Like when you buy a car and you check its history. Trouble is by this point the person would have already paid the money for the dog

😂😂😂😂 good shout
I'd say it should be more geared towards runaway dogs since that's probably a lot more common anyway.
The owner should be made to pay a fee to the finder, of which this company takes a cut; with ad revenue, it would be more lucrative. It would also incentivise people to report missing dogs. If lots of people post snouts hoping to make a little cash, then more owners would join, growing the platform.

Why aren’t they selling this to vets to replace the chip that the vets are using at the moment ?
Good question

My thoughts entirely.
My thoughts to but not to replace but to sell along side the chip for a one off price . .
Chips are a lot more reliable... they haven't told us how good their app is at recognizing different dog noses..

Really liked the way they counted Sarah out even before entering the den. Talked about 4 Dragons.
Let the dog owner put up a reward on the app for anyone who can find the dog and your would get a lot more downloads
Yeah, that would stop people stealing dogs. Just one problem: they'd just kidnap them for the -ransom- reward, instead.
The Dog shelters, Dog rescuers, and all Veterinarians would be great if they had the app in case a dog was brought in rescued or found on the street or if someone said they found a dog, all they have to do is scan the dog's nose and find that dog's rightful owner.
No need for the app just have the scan replace chips
That's what chips do already.
Sounds like the App developers are doing a better job of upselling these guys with their AI.🤣
I love this one
"That's it"
No questions 🤣
Good idea but think outside the box, partner with vets and SPCA. Partner with companies for discounts. Sell the breed, age, area data to companies
This only works if everyone has the app. Imagine someone finds your dog. How are they supposed to know they're on the FBI's watch lists?
Another company already does this and it's called Crumb. Not only do they do the snout thing they also have a dog tag you can track
Use for RSPCA.
