00:00:02,240 --> 00:00:20,039
Speaker 1: This is pet Life Radio. Let's talk pets.

2
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:25,679
Speaker 2: Hello pet levers, Welcome to Best Bets for Pets. I'm

3
00:00:25,679 --> 00:00:29,480
your show host, Michelle Bern. You know, we've come a

4
00:00:29,519 --> 00:00:32,320
long way as far as you know what we use

5
00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:35,119
on our pets, and one of the biggest things, of

6
00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:38,880
course with our dogs is making sure they're secure. And

7
00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:42,159
one of the new things out is AI. We're recording

8
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:44,920
this end of twenty twenty five. It'll be aired twenty

9
00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:47,920
twenty six. And everybody's interested in AI, which is not

10
00:00:48,119 --> 00:00:51,840
brand new but still kind of new. What about combining

11
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:55,039
AI and using it for your dog? While my guest

12
00:00:55,079 --> 00:00:57,520
today has a product that does that, and we'll be

13
00:00:57,679 --> 00:00:59,119
right back to talk about it.

14
00:01:01,359 --> 00:01:05,079
Speaker 3: Take a bite out of your competition, advertise your business

15
00:01:05,079 --> 00:01:08,359
with an ad. In pet Life Radio podcasts and radio shows,

16
00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:11,319
there is no other pet related media that is as

17
00:01:11,439 --> 00:01:14,480
large and reaches more pet parents and pet lovers than

18
00:01:14,519 --> 00:01:18,439
pet Life Radio, with over seven million monthly listeners. Pet

19
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:22,560
Life Radio podcasts are available on all major podcast platforms,

20
00:01:22,799 --> 00:01:25,760
and our live radio stream goes out to over two

21
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:30,599
hundred and fifty million subscribers on iHeartRadio, Odyssey, tune In,

22
00:01:30,799 --> 00:01:33,879
and other streaming apps. For more information on how you

23
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:37,599
can advertise on the number one pet podcast and radio network.

24
00:01:37,719 --> 00:01:42,719
Visit petlifradio dot com. Slash advertised today.

25
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:55,400
Speaker 4: Let's talk pets on petlifradio dot com.

26
00:01:55,560 --> 00:02:00,200
Speaker 2: Welcome back everyone. I'd like to welcome David Teaster, the

27
00:02:00,239 --> 00:02:05,879
product marketing director at Satellite. It is a new product.

28
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:10,000
It's the world's first pet centric AI and E caller.

29
00:02:10,439 --> 00:02:12,599
Speaker 5: Welcome David, Thanks so much for having me.

30
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:15,800
Speaker 2: Thrilled to have you on this show. What does AI

31
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:18,919
and E stand for? We know AI, but what is

32
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:19,639
the E part?

33
00:02:19,879 --> 00:02:22,919
Speaker 5: Yeah, so that's a wonderful question. So obviously AI, as

34
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:26,120
you said, we all know it artificial intelligence. The E

35
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:29,280
is more about electronic and it's just to say that

36
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:33,520
this is a hardware product that also works with AI.

37
00:02:33,879 --> 00:02:36,919
So the AI is kind of more software related, whereas

38
00:02:37,039 --> 00:02:40,719
the hardware. The E caller is an electronic device that

39
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,520
helps track your dog's different metrics so that the AI

40
00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:45,120
has more data to work off of.

41
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 2: Okay, and what does the pet centric AI mean? And

42
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:53,360
how is this different from traditional pet tech?

43
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,840
Speaker 5: So the reason we say pet centric, well, I should

44
00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:58,879
think about which of those two questions to start with.

45
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:01,719
Maybe we can start with how it's different from traditional

46
00:03:01,759 --> 00:03:04,919
pet tech. I would say with traditional pet tech, you're

47
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:09,319
looking more at things that do more simple kind of functions,

48
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:14,319
and while that's been expanding in recent years similar products

49
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:18,879
like ours, I think adding more AI functions into it

50
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:22,280
takes it to the next level. So what differentiates it

51
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:25,159
more is with traditional pet tech, you had devices that

52
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:27,960
just kind of help you interact with your pet, whereas

53
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:31,199
with Satellite we're looking to combine everything into one spot

54
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:34,400
where you have hardware and software working together, because really

55
00:03:34,479 --> 00:03:38,840
we want to make sure that every pet is connected, protected,

56
00:03:39,039 --> 00:03:41,960
cared for, and safe. And so that's something that we're

57
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:45,400
building towards with all the different products that we're releasing.

58
00:03:45,759 --> 00:03:47,960
And as you said, we've got a new product already.

59
00:03:48,039 --> 00:03:51,159
Our first product launched back in April of this year,

60
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:54,840
the Satellite Caller, which provides a lot of different functions

61
00:03:54,879 --> 00:03:59,319
for people, including virtual fencing also known as geo fencing

62
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:04,080
or GPS fencing, which is training based boundaries that you

63
00:04:04,159 --> 00:04:07,159
set up via the app, and then it gives feedback

64
00:04:07,159 --> 00:04:09,120
to your dog through the collar through a vibration, a

65
00:04:09,199 --> 00:04:11,840
whistle or something to help keep your dog in those

66
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:15,240
safe limits. But at the same time, we have sensors

67
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:18,480
inside that track when your dog's moving and when your

68
00:04:18,519 --> 00:04:22,959
dog's resting to start giving you those insights into your

69
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:27,079
dog's behavior and activity patterns. Similar to the way that smart

70
00:04:27,079 --> 00:04:31,160
wearables work for people, we can actually log these different

71
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:34,439
changes over time and then you get this pattern based.

72
00:04:34,959 --> 00:04:38,160
What we're looking to do in twenty twenty six, especially

73
00:04:38,199 --> 00:04:41,639
because we're looking to expand out our AI functions, is

74
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:46,560
that it will actually one have more specific algorithmic breakdowns

75
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:50,399
to what type of activity your pet is undergoing. So

76
00:04:50,519 --> 00:04:53,319
right now our products are specific to dogs, so it

77
00:04:53,399 --> 00:04:55,199
should be able to break down how much your dog

78
00:04:55,279 --> 00:05:01,879
is walking versus running, versus jumping, versus resting versus you know,

79
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:05,839
licking or even shaking its head. And so that's one

80
00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:08,480
aspect of what we're looking at with the AI. On

81
00:05:08,519 --> 00:05:10,360
top of that, we hope to be able to give

82
00:05:10,879 --> 00:05:14,199
reports that reference all this different data to help give

83
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,600
you kind of a brief overview into what's going on

84
00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,240
with your dog. And then on top of that too,

85
00:05:19,399 --> 00:05:23,879
we actually have an LLN inside our application that you

86
00:05:23,879 --> 00:05:26,079
can ask it questions and it will be able to

87
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,839
refer to this data that it's collected as well as

88
00:05:28,879 --> 00:05:31,800
the information that you've given it when you registered in

89
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:35,000
the app and start giving you better insights into your

90
00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:36,680
pets overall well being.

91
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:40,439
Speaker 2: It's amazing what technology can do. That sounds amazing. So

92
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:44,000
a couple of comments, So it sounds like in a

93
00:05:44,199 --> 00:05:47,439
sense the collar is what is I don't know. I

94
00:05:47,439 --> 00:05:50,000
think it's quarm that the ring that people wear. I

95
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,920
don't wear one, but there's a ring that senses your

96
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:55,600
you know, people's sleep and health and all of that.

97
00:05:56,079 --> 00:05:58,240
It sounds like the data is similar to that, but

98
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:00,480
for your dog. Is that compare?

99
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:02,439
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that's a good way to kind of

100
00:06:02,439 --> 00:06:05,759
compare it. Because actually our founders their background was in

101
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:09,199
smart wearables for people. They were working for a maze fit,

102
00:06:09,319 --> 00:06:12,120
which is one of the big smart wearable companies, and

103
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:14,959
they wanted to bring these same kind of information and

104
00:06:15,079 --> 00:06:18,439
insights to the pet space because I can track my

105
00:06:18,519 --> 00:06:20,680
own health and see these patterns and see what's going

106
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:22,839
on and I know what it means like this changes.

107
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:25,480
But with your dog there's an extra step because your

108
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:29,399
dog can't give you the context of what was going

109
00:06:29,439 --> 00:06:33,639
on or communicate what it encountered through what your dog

110
00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:36,240
encountered throughout the day. So I think the AI gives

111
00:06:36,319 --> 00:06:39,439
us this extra bit of context and this pattern recognition

112
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,839
that really helps us know what's going on with our

113
00:06:42,879 --> 00:06:45,879
dogs and helps us see immediately when they're not feeling

114
00:06:45,879 --> 00:06:46,879
their best.

115
00:06:47,079 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 2: Okay, so let's break it down for people that are

116
00:06:50,399 --> 00:06:53,879
don't understand tech or little late getting onto AI. So

117
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:58,360
the electronic part would be any vibrations or sounds to

118
00:06:58,879 --> 00:07:00,600
kind of alert your dog right.

119
00:07:00,519 --> 00:07:02,720
Speaker 5: In the past, Yeah, that has been I'd say in

120
00:07:02,759 --> 00:07:06,399
our case, it's more just related to the fact that

121
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:08,920
it has the sensors and it can kind of record

122
00:07:08,959 --> 00:07:13,160
all this data. We have different products coming out in Europe.

123
00:07:13,199 --> 00:07:16,079
We already launched the Satellite Caller Go, which is a

124
00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:19,839
smaller version that doesn't have quite all the virtual fencing functions,

125
00:07:20,199 --> 00:07:23,319
but it's much smaller and it can fit dogs of

126
00:07:23,399 --> 00:07:27,279
more sizes, but it does still have the sensors inside

127
00:07:27,319 --> 00:07:29,839
of it to help you see what's going on with

128
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,519
your dog, what kind of activity they have. A lot

129
00:07:32,519 --> 00:07:34,759
of times, what's going on is these are also GPS

130
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:38,680
tracking devices, so you can actually keep track of where

131
00:07:38,759 --> 00:07:41,399
your dog is. So I'd say, if we wanted to

132
00:07:41,399 --> 00:07:43,439
put it kind of simply, what's going on here is

133
00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:46,399
with the caller go, you know where your dog is,

134
00:07:46,959 --> 00:07:51,319
what your dog is doing, and ostensibly, with AI, how

135
00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:52,319
your dog is feeling.

136
00:07:52,879 --> 00:07:55,879
Speaker 2: Do you think this is a little different, but listening

137
00:07:55,959 --> 00:07:59,279
to this information, do you think at some point when

138
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,600
ugs are chipped, they will, you know, have AI and

139
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:05,120
the chips so that if your dog is lost, you

140
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:08,439
could actually look at the chip information and find where

141
00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:08,800
they are.

142
00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:12,439
Speaker 5: I think that's something that would be definitely ideal for

143
00:08:12,519 --> 00:08:15,040
a lot of people right now. I think the limitation

144
00:08:15,439 --> 00:08:17,680
is kind of how you power a device like that

145
00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:21,920
once it's subdermal, because it's so small. But you know,

146
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,160
there's all different ways that you might be able to

147
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:26,600
make that happen, and it would be people much smarter

148
00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:29,120
than me figuring out how to make that work. But

149
00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:31,519
I think right now we're mostly looking at tracking colleagues

150
00:08:31,519 --> 00:08:34,360
because these are warn't externally and then they can be recharged,

151
00:08:34,759 --> 00:08:37,440
whereas something subdermal, I think would have the challenge of

152
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:40,559
keeping it powered so that it can transmit a signal

153
00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:43,360
at all times, and then how do you recharge it

154
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:45,320
if the battery runs out right?

155
00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:50,799
Speaker 2: Exactly exactly? Okay, So let's talk about how the ecolor

156
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:54,919
and AI work together. So the data that's collected are

157
00:08:55,039 --> 00:09:00,559
you know, posture, movement, vocalization, breathing, sleep, activity levels. How

158
00:09:00,639 --> 00:09:03,840
does the AI turn this data into useful insights for

159
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:05,879
dog pet parents.

160
00:09:06,159 --> 00:09:08,519
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's a wonderful question. And I would say where

161
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:12,720
machine learning in general, but especially with the advent of LLMS,

162
00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:16,600
where this type of technology really excels in my mind,

163
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:22,919
is really just like iterating through repetitive information, detecting patterns

164
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:27,240
and then highlighting changes in those patterns. So with LLMS

165
00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:29,799
that becomes like very conversational thing, and then you can

166
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:34,559
ask it questions that can actually respond, whereas with the

167
00:09:34,639 --> 00:09:38,360
data iteration, it can actually process things very very quickly

168
00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:40,799
and be able to figure out when something's different. Well, asa,

169
00:09:40,879 --> 00:09:43,960
I figure it out. But identify would be a better

170
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:46,799
way to phrase that. It's able to identify when there's

171
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:49,639
a sudden change. Now we can already do that with

172
00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:52,600
ourselves with our own smart wearables, and if you use

173
00:09:52,639 --> 00:09:56,039
a traditional activity tracker, you can do that yourself too,

174
00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:58,159
and swipe through the screens and just see, Okay, here's

175
00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:01,120
how much activity they had last week. Here's the bar graph.

176
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,519
For how much activity they had this week, here's the

177
00:10:03,519 --> 00:10:06,240
bar graph for this week, Oh why did it suddenly dip?

178
00:10:06,759 --> 00:10:09,320
But where I think AI is very helpful is it

179
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:13,600
can kind of start granulating that data and actually identifying

180
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:17,360
these things even better and actually giving you a comprehensive report,

181
00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:19,320
so you don't have to swipe through that data all

182
00:10:19,399 --> 00:10:22,320
by yourself and try to figure out what the patterns are.

183
00:10:22,519 --> 00:10:25,639
It can actually highlight where the changes have happened. And

184
00:10:25,759 --> 00:10:27,720
part of what we're looking to do with our future

185
00:10:27,799 --> 00:10:30,679
version of the pet Sence AI, which we're getting ready

186
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:34,120
to update, is that it will actually give a report

187
00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:37,120
and a health score that lets you know and just

188
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:40,279
kind of gives you a week by week update of

189
00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:43,200
what's going on with your pet and what's changed compared

190
00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:45,519
to last week. And then when you see that, you

191
00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:48,279
know that maybe there's something going on, and you can

192
00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:51,840
get some advice on what could be some causes. And

193
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:55,120
if you think it's serious enough or even potentially serious enough,

194
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:57,679
then that's when you start looping in your veterinarian.

195
00:10:58,279 --> 00:11:02,159
Speaker 2: Okay, So I can see mostly positive little bit of

196
00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:07,200
uh ohs that might happen if the you know, you know,

197
00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:11,399
they say doctor Google right, So absolutely, and I have

198
00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:15,039
talked to a lot of veterinarians, and most of them

199
00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:18,600
love this information. I mean you could look at the data.

200
00:11:18,919 --> 00:11:21,519
I mean if the data is just a sign, it

201
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:24,720
just gives you information and it's a way, like you said,

202
00:11:24,759 --> 00:11:27,639
to see patterns and so forth. I mean there could

203
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:30,799
be a dip which could be something, or there could

204
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,399
be nothing, and people might think, well, I don't need

205
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:36,759
to do my annual that appointment because everything's going as is.

206
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:41,519
So where do you see the challenges for people understanding

207
00:11:41,639 --> 00:11:45,440
the information well enough to realize it's not a substitute

208
00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:47,279
for you know, seeing your veb.

209
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:50,720
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that is always a concern, and you're absolutely,

210
00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:53,600
in my mind, one hundred percent correct to highlight that

211
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:57,159
because to my mind, where it's helpful is for getting

212
00:11:57,159 --> 00:12:00,360
that early care. When you identify these problems early, then

213
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,120
you're not doing that that visit in the middle of

214
00:12:03,159 --> 00:12:06,200
the night that costs you one to two thousand dollars

215
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:09,519
to do a surgery because your dog's been feeling bad

216
00:12:09,519 --> 00:12:11,759
for four days but you didn't realize that they had

217
00:12:11,799 --> 00:12:15,240
swallowed something while you weren't watching them, you know, like

218
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:17,200
as a random example.

219
00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:20,360
Speaker 2: No, that's happened, It's happened to me and dog get

220
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:23,639
into stuff that's that's messy where they shouldn't, and it's

221
00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:27,200
easy for them to follow something and not realizing. I

222
00:12:27,279 --> 00:12:30,360
had one friend who had a store and she didn't

223
00:12:30,399 --> 00:12:34,080
realize her dog had swallowed some some ribbon until she

224
00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:35,440
saw it coming out of his tail.

225
00:12:35,919 --> 00:12:38,679
Speaker 5: Yeah, if you're lucky, it's a mundane thing and you're

226
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:41,000
just like, oh, when did they get into the string?

227
00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:43,799
I'm just seeing that in there when they went to

228
00:12:43,879 --> 00:12:46,200
the bathroom, and you know it passes through, but you know,

229
00:12:46,279 --> 00:12:49,080
those things could get impacted. And while the activity data

230
00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:51,159
that we have now wouldn't necessarily tell you your dog

231
00:12:51,279 --> 00:12:54,679
swallowed something, no, get help, it would identify that the

232
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:59,200
behavior patterns shifted and your dog maybe isn't feeling very

233
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:02,799
well because your dog's not doing the things they normally

234
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:04,799
do at this time of day. Like I see it

235
00:13:04,799 --> 00:13:06,799
more as an early warning system, and then with the

236
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:09,799
AI we're looking to actually have it also give alerts

237
00:13:09,879 --> 00:13:13,960
when there's sudden changes in behavior, especially sudden extreme changes

238
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:16,399
in behavior, to help you get that taken care of

239
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:19,320
early before it becomes a more significant problem.

240
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:22,799
Speaker 2: Okay, so what would a real world example look like

241
00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:28,000
in your system? So say you know, I was didn't

242
00:13:28,039 --> 00:13:32,480
notice and my I don't know my dog cracked as

243
00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:34,639
tooth or so this is another thing that happened to me,

244
00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:38,840
cracked a tooth. Would there be any notification? Would I

245
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:42,600
notice that on the AI device or is there maybe

246
00:13:42,639 --> 00:13:43,600
I have a better example.

247
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:47,440
Speaker 5: So yeah, that's a really great example actually, because I

248
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:49,600
think it comes back to what does your dog do

249
00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:52,120
when they've cracked their tooth? Well, a lot of times

250
00:13:52,159 --> 00:13:53,840
your dog's not going to be eating the way they

251
00:13:53,879 --> 00:13:56,480
normally do. And while our current product line may not

252
00:13:56,559 --> 00:14:00,360
necessarily identify that, what it would notice is like the

253
00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:03,159
change in activity levels or the change in energy, the

254
00:14:03,159 --> 00:14:06,279
fact that your dog is resting more than before, or

255
00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:09,960
your dog's making different sounds than normal, you know, possibly

256
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:13,360
detecting barking or whimpering. I think we're also looking at

257
00:14:13,399 --> 00:14:17,200
like headshakes and licking as examples. So these changes in behavior,

258
00:14:17,279 --> 00:14:20,000
if it suddenly has a huge uptick, it would actually

259
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:23,519
give you an alert to let you know, hey, something's

260
00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:27,519
different than before. Maybe you should look into this. And

261
00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:29,879
if you ask it in the app, you could ask

262
00:14:29,919 --> 00:14:32,399
it what are some potential causes, and it would be

263
00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:35,000
able to give some suggestions on things to look at,

264
00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:37,480
and you could possibly give just kind of a quick

265
00:14:37,759 --> 00:14:40,840
exam yourself just to see, like where does the problem

266
00:14:40,919 --> 00:14:43,440
seem to be originating. And from there, I think you've

267
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:45,960
got a lot more options and you'd be able to

268
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:49,000
identify that. I think I would hope at a much

269
00:14:49,039 --> 00:14:52,279
earlier stage than if you're just waiting for why isn't

270
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:55,159
my dog getting up and running around like normal? He

271
00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:59,320
seems really sluggish today, But actually he's been sluggish for

272
00:14:59,399 --> 00:15:03,360
several days. You just it just wasn't noticeable until day

273
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:04,159
four or five.

274
00:15:04,799 --> 00:15:07,320
Speaker 2: Understood, Okay, we're gonna take a quick break and we'll

275
00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:12,279
be right back. Real people, real stories.

276
00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:15,639
Speaker 6: Our little dog developed this lymph problem at the chemotherapy

277
00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:19,360
lasted for six months, started developing more lymph nose, so

278
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:21,720
I thought I'd just try carnivor. If the lymph nose

279
00:15:21,759 --> 00:15:23,759
started to go down, then I took him into the

280
00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:25,960
vet to him checked out and there was no signs

281
00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:26,679
at all. Inside.

282
00:15:26,759 --> 00:15:29,080
Speaker 7: My cad had issues that developed in his height, and

283
00:15:29,159 --> 00:15:31,679
three months later my ven airing said this, go ahead

284
00:15:31,679 --> 00:15:34,440
and remove the eye. I heard the carnivore on advertising,

285
00:15:34,639 --> 00:15:36,279
so I said, you know what, I'm going to order

286
00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:38,799
this product. They did the procedure, they did all the

287
00:15:38,799 --> 00:15:40,639
death and they said, I don't know what you did

288
00:15:41,039 --> 00:15:41,840
this product.

289
00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 2: They his eye.

290
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:44,559
Speaker 6: I've got a labrador.

291
00:15:44,759 --> 00:15:47,279
Speaker 5: You could hardly lift yourself up off the door. The

292
00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:48,759
treatment list came to therapy.

293
00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:50,399
Speaker 6: That's when I said this could.

294
00:15:50,279 --> 00:15:50,879
Speaker 8: Be the ticket.

295
00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:53,919
Speaker 6: About three weeks you could tell she was very alert.

296
00:15:54,279 --> 00:15:56,360
She was going to buy my lock and she is

297
00:15:56,519 --> 00:15:57,879
just like crime again.

298
00:15:58,159 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 2: Well eight six six eight three, it's eight seven three five.

299
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:04,840
That's eight six six eight three six eight seven three five.

307
00:16:34,799 --> 00:16:39,440
Speaker 2: Welcome back everyone. We're talking to David Teaster. He is

308
00:16:39,799 --> 00:16:43,799
the product marketing director at Satellite AI and we're talking

309
00:16:43,919 --> 00:16:47,799
about their new collar. So let's talk about first safety

310
00:16:47,919 --> 00:16:50,039
because you know, we always want to make sure our

311
00:16:50,039 --> 00:16:53,240
dogs are safe. Is the caller safe? I know there's

312
00:16:53,279 --> 00:16:56,159
some you know, vibrations that the dog can feel and

313
00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:59,720
so forth, but is it absolutely safe and also is

314
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:02,279
it for all dogs all sizes.

315
00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:04,920
Speaker 5: So wonderful questions on both those sides, I think it.

316
00:17:05,519 --> 00:17:08,240
I mean, anytime you've gone an electronic device, you know

317
00:17:08,279 --> 00:17:12,319
there's a battery, then there's always room for something unexpected.

318
00:17:12,599 --> 00:17:15,559
But everything we have is CE certified, so it meets

319
00:17:15,599 --> 00:17:19,960
standard safety measures on that regard, so there's no necessarily

320
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:23,400
more concern about that than you know, any other electronic

321
00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:26,480
device to my mind. Also, when we're looking at it,

322
00:17:26,519 --> 00:17:28,559
you know, we've designed it with the materials to make

323
00:17:28,559 --> 00:17:31,319
sure that everything's kind of too safe and non toxic.

324
00:17:31,799 --> 00:17:34,880
So even if your dog like decides to somehow get

325
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:36,799
at it and use the collar as a chew toy,

326
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:40,119
it's pretty well insulated and it shouldn't cause any problems

327
00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:42,720
on that side, even if they swallowed, say a small

328
00:17:43,039 --> 00:17:45,720
piece of it. You know, obviously that's not ideal, but

329
00:17:45,759 --> 00:17:49,440
it shouldn't have any toxicity to it either, though if

330
00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:51,279
that did happen, just for the record, make sure to

331
00:17:51,279 --> 00:17:53,079
get that check out and don't let your dog get

332
00:17:53,079 --> 00:17:55,880
at it anymore because it's an electronic device. But on

333
00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:58,519
the other side too, it seems like you're also asking

334
00:17:58,599 --> 00:18:02,640
specifically about the feedback functions. Yes, so yeah, so we've

335
00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:06,319
got the whistle, we've got the vibration, and then optionally

336
00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:09,279
for dogs but like a really strong prey drive, we

337
00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:12,480
have what we call static correction. This is only for

338
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:17,279
the original satellite collar, and I'll address first. The original

339
00:18:17,279 --> 00:18:20,680
satellite caller is for big dogs because it's it's rather hefty,

340
00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:23,119
it's got two satellite transmitters in there, it's got the

341
00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:26,160
vibration motor and all these different things. So it does

342
00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:30,319
have an optional static correction. But I hate to mislead

343
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:32,880
people because some people would hear that and say it's

344
00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:35,799
a shock collar, but it's to my mind, it's really not,

345
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:39,359
because it's more of just kind of a physical stimulus,

346
00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:42,839
Like I've physically tried this on myself, and the idea

347
00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:45,400
behind it is just to kind of create a strong

348
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:49,359
sensation to get your dog's attention if they're chasing something.

349
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:52,799
And really it's completely optional because you don't have to

350
00:18:52,839 --> 00:18:55,720
install the contact points for that just for the record,

351
00:18:56,319 --> 00:18:58,359
like you can leave those off and then it wouldn't

352
00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:00,839
be able to do anything regardless of what you said

353
00:19:00,839 --> 00:19:04,200
it to. It wouldn't be able to activate accidentally or

354
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:06,720
anything like that, which it can't do anyway, but that

355
00:19:06,759 --> 00:19:10,680
would one hundred percent remove even the smallest chance. So

356
00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:13,920
that's there. But it's more from the side of giving

357
00:19:14,279 --> 00:19:17,720
pet parents every tool we think they might need to

358
00:19:17,839 --> 00:19:20,519
keep their pets safe. And so I know, like there's

359
00:19:20,559 --> 00:19:22,880
a lot of different types of trainers that look at

360
00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:27,599
positive reinforcement versus negative and it's not really our goal

361
00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:29,720
to weigh in on that, but to give people the

362
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:31,680
tool that they need to train their dog and keep

363
00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:33,480
their dog in safe limits.

364
00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:37,720
Speaker 2: Got it. So for your Houdini dogs that are you know,

365
00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:41,799
constantly you know, escaping your yard or what have you.

366
00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:46,400
Even if you are living in rural areas, it's still

367
00:19:46,519 --> 00:19:49,160
a good tool. I mean, you think, and let me backcheck.

368
00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:51,400
I had a Houdini dog, but it was in the city.

369
00:19:51,839 --> 00:19:56,400
So in my mind it's a lot better too. You know, Okay,

370
00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:59,039
your dog's go and I feel a little sensation rather

371
00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:02,319
than the very unfortunate alternative that your dog might be

372
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:03,960
hit by a car exactly.

373
00:20:04,039 --> 00:20:06,119
Speaker 5: And that's kind of where I stand on it too.

374
00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:09,640
Is again, we're giving options. We're not dictating what you

375
00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:13,200
do or don't do. The satellite caller go, it doesn't

376
00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:16,559
really even have the fencing function. So if that is

377
00:20:16,599 --> 00:20:18,599
something that bothers you, we do have a product that's

378
00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:21,759
more suitable where there's no feedback at all. Well, I

379
00:20:21,759 --> 00:20:25,240
shouldn't say that. There's what we call remote commands. So

380
00:20:25,279 --> 00:20:27,640
where the satellite caller GO is a bit different is

381
00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:31,000
you can set a virtual boundary and then it's not

382
00:20:31,079 --> 00:20:33,599
a fence in the sense that it doesn't keep your

383
00:20:33,599 --> 00:20:36,839
dog within it, because the virtual fence is enforced by training.

384
00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:39,960
But with the virtual boundary, you set up that limit

385
00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:42,319
and then you get an alert to your cell phone

386
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:45,279
if your dog goes past it, and then you can

387
00:20:45,319 --> 00:20:47,680
actually press a button in the app to play an

388
00:20:47,759 --> 00:20:51,920
audio command like a whistle or a good dog or

389
00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:55,680
a go home, which sensibly your dog goes past that boundary,

390
00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:57,759
it would be go home, and then when they go back,

391
00:20:57,799 --> 00:20:58,799
you play the good dog.

392
00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:03,200
Speaker 2: Okay, So how would the pet parent get started with

393
00:21:03,319 --> 00:21:04,920
the satellite AI caller.

394
00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:07,559
Speaker 5: Yeah, so with the satellite caller it depends which one

395
00:21:07,599 --> 00:21:10,559
you go for, the satellite caller or the satellite caller GO,

396
00:21:11,079 --> 00:21:14,039
but mostly it would be the same way you'd buy

397
00:21:14,079 --> 00:21:17,000
the product, you'd receive it, you'd get it set up.

398
00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:20,519
It works via GPS, which is supported by five global

399
00:21:20,599 --> 00:21:25,759
navigation satellite systems, which includes the United States Global Positioning System,

400
00:21:25,799 --> 00:21:29,119
which is what we usually call GPS. So you get

401
00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:32,839
that and you'll have to register with the account. You'll

402
00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:35,200
set up an account through the app, which you would

403
00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:38,839
download from either the Google Play Store or the App

404
00:21:38,839 --> 00:21:41,640
store on Apple. We have QR codes on our website

405
00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:43,519
that you could also use to scan that to find

406
00:21:43,599 --> 00:21:46,680
the appropriate page for satellite, and then you would just

407
00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:50,759
go through the setup process. It would require a subscription

408
00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:54,960
because it needs to be able to transmit data over

409
00:21:55,079 --> 00:21:56,920
cell you a signal to be able to send and

410
00:21:56,960 --> 00:22:00,759
receive at a distance. It can also connect via Bluetooth

411
00:22:00,839 --> 00:22:04,000
for sinking, but that's not really ideal for tracking scenarios.

412
00:22:04,039 --> 00:22:06,559
That would be more of just sinking up the health

413
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:09,000
metrics and so you get sorry with that. It would

414
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:11,359
just be you know, hardware app set up and then

415
00:22:11,519 --> 00:22:14,759
you'd enter the information about your dog. So what's your

416
00:22:14,759 --> 00:22:17,519
dog's name, You could cheer your dog's birthday, you could

417
00:22:17,599 --> 00:22:21,319
say what the breed is. The LLM is primarily trained

418
00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:24,559
off of our own breed database, which is basically to

419
00:22:24,559 --> 00:22:26,839
give it a baseline, but after that, because the college

420
00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:31,160
is actually recording your dog's metrics specifically, it would be

421
00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:34,200
able to kind of learn that, and then actually as

422
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:36,480
part of the process too, you would take a picture

423
00:22:36,519 --> 00:22:38,440
of your dog and then the AI would try to

424
00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:40,920
identify your dog's breed, which you can correct if you

425
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:43,440
think the AI is not quite right, but it would

426
00:22:43,519 --> 00:22:46,000
kind of automatically say, oh, your dog looks like it's

427
00:22:46,039 --> 00:22:49,359
this breed. Is that correct? And then you're pretty much

428
00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:52,599
good to go from there. You've got the location tracking,

429
00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:55,519
you can start setting up fences, you can start tracking

430
00:22:55,599 --> 00:23:00,240
activity and rest patterns, and then even start asking questions

431
00:23:00,279 --> 00:23:00,839
from the AI.

432
00:23:01,519 --> 00:23:04,759
Speaker 2: Okay, thanks, What would you say? So the go caller

433
00:23:05,039 --> 00:23:08,440
has a lot more features. What are you most proud

434
00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:11,400
of in the satellite AI callers?

435
00:23:11,839 --> 00:23:14,319
Speaker 5: Yeah, so with the satellite callers just in general, I

436
00:23:14,319 --> 00:23:16,720
think with all of our products, I'm just excited for

437
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:19,119
the ability that we're going to be able to get

438
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:22,279
pet parents to keep their dogs safe and know what's

439
00:23:22,319 --> 00:23:24,599
going on with them. I mean, I had a lot

440
00:23:24,599 --> 00:23:27,759
of different dogs growing up, and there's so many different

441
00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:29,960
I mean, they bring so much love to you and

442
00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:33,240
it's such a special relationship, but when you lose them

443
00:23:33,279 --> 00:23:36,880
for whatever reasons, that's a very specific kind of heartbreak

444
00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:39,640
when they run off and they don't come home. You know,

445
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:41,759
when they get sick and you didn't even know anything

446
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:43,680
was wrong, and then you know you have to take

447
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:46,000
them to the vet and you walk out without them.

448
00:23:46,279 --> 00:23:50,240
That's harmful, that's heavy, and you miss them every single day.

449
00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:52,960
And so what I think one of the big benefits

450
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:56,000
of the products that Satellite is doing is that it

451
00:23:56,079 --> 00:23:59,079
can help you just have that time with your pet

452
00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:02,160
and keep you together with your dog for as long

453
00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:05,839
as possible. You get those early warnings, you find them

454
00:24:05,839 --> 00:24:08,519
when they get lost, Like to me, are these are

455
00:24:08,559 --> 00:24:11,519
the two biggest tragedies that I had with my dogs

456
00:24:11,519 --> 00:24:14,400
as they either got sick or they ran off. And

457
00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:17,279
if you're lucky, you get them back. And when you're

458
00:24:17,319 --> 00:24:21,000
not lucky, then you just grieve them and remember.

459
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:24,559
Speaker 2: Them well spoken. And most of us pet parents have

460
00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:28,519
been there and it's tragic. Whether it's something sudden or

461
00:24:28,759 --> 00:24:31,920
it's something that's ongoing, it's just it's horrible.

462
00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:35,559
Speaker 5: And it's not even because you did anything wrong right right,

463
00:24:35,839 --> 00:24:38,319
it's just because your dog's being a dog, and part

464
00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:40,759
of being a dog is getting into things that you

465
00:24:40,759 --> 00:24:42,079
wouldn't expect.

466
00:24:41,839 --> 00:24:44,240
Speaker 2: Yep, and they don't live as long as we would like,

467
00:24:44,519 --> 00:24:48,400
so absolutely. Okay, So let's talk about another thing that

468
00:24:48,519 --> 00:24:53,039
pet parents are concerned about. How does Satellite AI ensure

469
00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:58,200
data accuracy, privacy and responsible use of the pet information?

470
00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:02,000
Because there does have to be some information input probably

471
00:25:02,279 --> 00:25:05,519
I don't know, you know, it's satellite, probably addresses and

472
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:08,920
you know, something that are personal and some people, some

473
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:11,880
of the dog parents out there listening, might say, I

474
00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:14,240
don't want to put all that personal information in Where

475
00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:15,640
does it go? Is it secure?

476
00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:18,519
Speaker 5: Yeah, So that's a good question. I think data security

477
00:25:18,759 --> 00:25:21,319
is a huge concern for a lot of people. So

478
00:25:21,519 --> 00:25:25,240
for Europe, everything we do like complies with the GDPR.

479
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:28,880
For the US, we're also complying with Data safety and

480
00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:33,640
storage was there and we're also working with AWS Amazon

481
00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:37,359
Web Services, so everything's actually stored on their servers and

482
00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:41,319
processed through them. So's it's protected by a company that

483
00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:43,759
I think, like you know, people are already familiar with

484
00:25:43,799 --> 00:25:45,920
and that we already trust a lot of our data

485
00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:49,440
to Already it's not necessarily going to satellite directly in

486
00:25:49,559 --> 00:25:52,359
terms of like all the details what we sometimes are

487
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:55,039
able to collect via our privacy policies. Is just kind

488
00:25:55,039 --> 00:25:58,519
of anonymized data of just dogs in general of how

489
00:25:58,599 --> 00:26:01,599
much they're running, but it kind of breaks down by category.

490
00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:05,759
It's not specific to any any individual from what I'm

491
00:26:05,799 --> 00:26:06,240
aware of.

492
00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:08,720
Speaker 2: Okay, thanks, I will say this is.

493
00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:11,359
Speaker 5: A my area of expertise, so there could be some

494
00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:14,480
details there. I'm not personally qualified to get into that

495
00:26:14,519 --> 00:26:15,079
too deeply.

496
00:26:15,519 --> 00:26:17,799
Speaker 2: Got it. But the data is secure for the most part.

497
00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:20,599
Speaker 5: Yes, I would be confidence to say that the data

498
00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:24,079
is secure and that personal information is pretty safe.

499
00:26:24,319 --> 00:26:27,400
Speaker 2: Okay, we talked about the basic collar than the go color.

500
00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:29,400
What are some other products that you have.

501
00:26:29,799 --> 00:26:32,599
Speaker 5: I mean, we're still a pretty new brand, so really

502
00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:35,519
the satellite callers are first entrigu into the market. And

503
00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:37,920
that's the really like cutting edge one that just like

504
00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:40,000
we packed every feature we could kind of think of

505
00:26:40,079 --> 00:26:42,759
into it. The caller goes designed to be a bit

506
00:26:42,799 --> 00:26:45,680
more accessible and then fit more more types of dogs.

507
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:48,079
One thing I do forget to mention because I think

508
00:26:48,079 --> 00:26:51,160
it's a huge well it's not the hugest feature, but

509
00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:53,960
I think it's helpful. It's like we actually put reflective

510
00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:57,880
lining and reflective stitching onto the products to make your

511
00:26:57,880 --> 00:27:01,519
dog more visible in low light environs, so it helps

512
00:27:01,599 --> 00:27:03,640
keep your dog safe in those regards too.

513
00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:07,000
Speaker 2: Okay, and you know I asked this earlier, but I

514
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:09,400
asked it with another question, so I don't know if

515
00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:13,000
it was answered. Sorry about that. What sized dog does

516
00:27:13,039 --> 00:27:15,920
the collar fit? Because you mentioned one is for like

517
00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:18,400
a larger dog. How small can you go?

518
00:27:18,759 --> 00:27:21,480
Speaker 5: That's a great question. So for the original satellite collar,

519
00:27:21,519 --> 00:27:23,599
I think right now the smallest we get is about

520
00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:27,480
fourteen inches. If you use the hook and loop strap,

521
00:27:27,519 --> 00:27:31,200
the valcro style strap, then it can go about fourteen inches.

522
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,119
But we actually have a fdlock magnetic clasp on it

523
00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:36,400
that's a lot more convenient for that when it goes

524
00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:39,599
down to seventeen inches. And that's for the original.

525
00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:42,799
Speaker 2: Collar, So fourteen inches I think that's what like about

526
00:27:42,839 --> 00:27:45,160
forty pounds generally.

527
00:27:45,599 --> 00:27:49,240
Speaker 5: Generally, I would say so those certain smaller breeds would

528
00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:52,720
maybe have a thick enough neck for it. Okay, for

529
00:27:52,799 --> 00:27:55,880
the satellite collar, go, well, one the device can kind

530
00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:59,599
of clip onto almost any dog collar, but the one

531
00:27:59,599 --> 00:28:01,720
that we include the band, I think that one goes

532
00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:03,480
to about thirteen and a half inches.

533
00:28:04,039 --> 00:28:06,480
Speaker 2: Okay, and how large, Yeah, I.

534
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:10,920
Speaker 5: Believe for the collar it's thirty two inches is the maximum.

535
00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:13,680
Speaker 2: Quite big, okay, or a thick neck with your bulldogs,

536
00:28:14,079 --> 00:28:18,480
but basically so your collar bits most dog sizes and

537
00:28:18,839 --> 00:28:22,359
for the little tiny dogs, they're like you know, pocket dogs,

538
00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:25,160
they don't really run out. But would you at some

539
00:28:25,319 --> 00:28:29,079
point do you see Satellite AI making a smaller collar

540
00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:32,640
for those little, small but frisky dogs like your Jack Russell.

541
00:28:33,039 --> 00:28:36,079
Speaker 5: Yes, I do think we would be very interested in

542
00:28:36,279 --> 00:28:39,240
expanding into smaller dogs. Part of it is just because

543
00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:41,480
we have so many features packed into it that you know,

544
00:28:41,559 --> 00:28:44,200
when you're putting so much tech into one device, that

545
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:47,480
device kind of winds up being large. So that's why

546
00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:49,759
it's a bit more suited for big dogs. But yes,

547
00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:53,519
I mean, we really want to have an overarching coverage

548
00:28:53,559 --> 00:28:57,079
system for every kind of pet that people get, you know,

549
00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:59,759
big dogs, medium dogs, small dogs. And then in a

550
00:28:59,759 --> 00:29:02,400
few we'd like to expand into cats as well, to

551
00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:04,240
be able to keep them safe and protected.

552
00:29:04,599 --> 00:29:08,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, that would be good because they are devious creatures.

553
00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:12,880
Speaker 5: Well, they're also not always the most communicative when something's wrong.

554
00:29:13,279 --> 00:29:16,400
Speaker 2: My other show is Catitudes, so we talk about that

555
00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:21,599
they're stoic creatures and that's just an ongoing concern for

556
00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:25,720
cat pet parents because they hide their illness as well.

557
00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:28,759
I mean I've experienced it with my cats where one

558
00:29:28,799 --> 00:29:31,079
was near debt. They want one hospital wanted to put

559
00:29:31,119 --> 00:29:33,640
them down. I was like no, and took them to

560
00:29:33,839 --> 00:29:37,519
another hospital the next day. And that was what I

561
00:29:37,559 --> 00:29:41,319
think fourteen years ago. So he's fine, but they don't

562
00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:43,920
tell you and there's a problem. So this for cats

563
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:45,480
would be fantastic.

564
00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:48,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean for dogs it's already quite difficult because

565
00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:50,960
you know, sometimes they don't want to trouble the pack,

566
00:29:51,119 --> 00:29:55,599
so they'll kind of run and hide the suffer and isolation.

567
00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:57,920
But cats are even worse.

568
00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:01,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're hard, they're not little dogs, as we say,

569
00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:04,480
and they're definitely challenging. Our dog parents that are listening,

570
00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:07,400
or pet parents in general that are listening, could take

571
00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:11,519
away just one benefit from using satellite AI, what would

572
00:30:11,519 --> 00:30:12,319
you want that to be?

573
00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:15,640
Speaker 5: I would say that the overarching thing now and in

574
00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:18,960
the future is going to be just the insights that

575
00:30:19,039 --> 00:30:22,359
you can get into keeping your dog healthy and active.

576
00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:27,319
Speaker 2: Okay, thank you, David. Where can people find more information

577
00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:30,640

578
00:30:31,119 --> 00:30:33,319
Speaker 5: Oh that's a wonderful question. So I'd say the best

579
00:30:33,319 --> 00:30:37,279
