Animal health is moving from occasional clinic visits to connected, everyday care.
For COMPANION animals, AI (Artificial Intelligence) will sit quietly in the background-helping veterinarians read images, draft notes, and turn wearable and home-test data into simple, personal care plans. That means earlier flags for osteoarthritis, weight issues, heart or kidney changes, and skin flares, with clearer next steps for pet parents.
For LIVESTOCK, Precision Livestock Farming (PLF) brings tags, cameras, and barn sensors together to spot lameness, mastitis, respiratory disease, heat stress, and calving risks before they spread-while also guiding feed and welfare.
On the BUSINESS side, digital tools unlock practical wins: condition-based subscriptions and adherence programs, outcome-based agreements with producers and insurers, and “copilot” automations that trim busywork in pharmacovigilance (PV), medical information (MI), R&D; (research and development), and supply chain.
We’ll separate hype from helpful, share a short list of metrics that matter, and finish with a 90-day starter plan so you leave with two pilot ideas you can launch within the next 30 days.

AskVet is the leading AI and data-driven technology company in animal health. We use AI and our proprietary companion animal and livestock data to build highly intelligent veterinary agents that will join the workforce – enhancing engagement, improving efficiency, and supporting revenue growth for animal health organizations.
In 2023, AskVet introduced VERA (Veterinary Engagement & Relationship Agent), the world’s only AI veterinarian. VERA is trained on over 2.5 million recorded conversations between veterinarians and animal owners, curricula from six veterinary colleges, and more than 180 curated medical, nutritional, and behavioral data sets. She currently converses in 50 languages.
As a customizable conversational AI, VERA powers medical triage, operational support, customer acquisition, sales, retention, and back-end automation – making her an invaluable asset across the animal health ecosystem.
Demand in the US for animal health care for both companion animals and food production animals is outpacing supply of qualified veterinarians and technicians. The US animal health industry needs to use data and AI to augment and expand the available supply of human veterinary expertise to close the supply and demand gap. And the problem is much worse if you look at the global growth of companion and food production animals. AskVet has created a suite of data/AI products on the VERA platform where companion and food animal businesses can use their propriety data and VERA’s veterinary expertise to create differentiation and competitive advantage.
