The Problem

European veterinary practices — especially the ~70% that are still independent — are stuck in a technology gap. While human healthcare has undergone massive digital transformation, many vet clinics still operate with:

  • Paper medical records or locally-installed Windows XP-era software
  • Manual appointment scheduling (phone + dry-erase board)
  • Fax-based lab result communication
  • Manual invoicing with no connection to clinical records
  • Zero client communication automation (no appointment reminders, no follow-ups)

The big players (ezyVet/IDEXX, Provet Cloud/Nordhealth) target mid-to-large clinics and corporate chains with pricing starting at €200-300/month per user. For a 2-vet independent clinic, that's €400-600/month — a significant cost that often comes with complexity they don't need.

Meanwhile, the expectations of pet owners (tech-savvy millennials who are now the dominant demographic) are skyrocketing: they want online booking, telemedicine, WhatsApp updates, and digital records. Clinics that can't deliver this lose clients to corporate chains.
