AI pet-health triage

Clear guidance when something feels wrong.

Something's off with your pet and you don't know how bad it is. Describe what you're seeing — LanternPet considers their age, breed, medications, and history to give you an urgency level and a clear next step, in plain language. Never a diagnosis.

LanternPet provides urgency guidance, not veterinary diagnosis. In an emergency, contact a veterinarian immediately.

Why not just ask a chatbot?

A chat window answers a question. LanternPet remembers the whole story.

For a one-off question, a free chatbot is fine. The difference is everything wrapped around the answer.

Context

It knows your pet

Every assessment is computed from this animal: breed risks, age thresholds, weight, medications, allergies, spay status — and what happened the last three times.

Continuity

It follows up

A chatbot never calls back. LanternPet checks in tomorrow, tracks the weight curve, and notices the third limp this month.

Action

It gives you a next step

Emergency clinics surfaced instantly, records kept vet-ready, reminders that fire, and a PDF your vet can actually use.

STEP 1

Tell LanternPet what's happening

Describe the symptoms in your own words, or add a photo of what you're seeing.

STEP 2

Get an urgency level and a next step

Know whether to go now, book today, monitor closely, or breathe easy — with the reasoning explained.

STEP 3

Keep everything connected

The assessment saves to your pet's history, reminders get set, and the records stay ready to share with your vet.

Beyond the emergency

From tonight's scare to tomorrow's care.

Triage is the front door. Behind it, everything a careful owner keeps track of — kept automatically.

Follow-ups

We check back — no chatbot does that

A "monitor closely" answer isn't the end. LanternPet checks in the next morning: better, same, or worse, one tap. Worse rolls straight into a fresh assessment, and every answer builds your pet's health story.

Species

Rabbits and birds aren't small dogs

A rabbit that stops eating is on a clock, and a bird only looks sick once it's critically ill. LanternPet reasons about rabbits, birds, guinea pigs, ferrets, hamsters, and rats on their own terms rather than borrowing dog logic. Reptiles and fish are welcome too — and there it says outright that its species-specific guidance is thinner, and sends you to an exotics vet.

Records

Scan the paperwork, skip the typing

Photograph discharge notes or a vaccine certificate — medications, dosing schedules, and due dates are extracted into structured records you can pull up anywhere.

Care schedule

Preventive care on autopilot

Vaccine series, boosters, parasite prevention, dental, and wellness exams — suggested from your pet's age and records, scheduled only when you approve them.

Medications

Reminders that match the prescription

Twice daily for ten days means exactly that — reminders that follow the course and stop when it ends.

Toxins

Instant toxin check

Chocolate math by body weight, xylitol, grapes, lilies, and more — instant, free, no account needed. Try the toxin checker →

Proof

Certificates in your pocket

Boarding asks for rabies proof; you have it in two taps. Export the full health record as a vet-ready PDF.

Daily care

The routine, checked off

Walks, feeds, litter box — a daily checklist anyone caring for your pet can tick. Every check-off lands in the care log with who did it and when, and any task can invite a photo, taken right in the app.

Care circle

The whole household, on the same page

Share your pets with family — and give a sitter temporary access that expires on its own. Everyone sees what's been given and when, so nobody double-doses the dog — and while you're away, a day-by-day summary shows everything the sitter did.

Built for trust

Cautious by design.

Pet health and AI both demand honesty about limits. Here's where we stand.

Not veterinary careNever a diagnosis, never a treatment or dose — urgency guidance and next steps only.
Conservative on emergenciesWhen in doubt, the assessment escalates. GO NOW results surface emergency clinics instantly.
Your data stays yoursNo advertising, no selling personal data. Records export as a PDF anytime.
Delete means deleteRemoving your account permanently removes your pets, records, photos, and history.
Whole-history assessmentsEvery answer is computed from your pet's full profile and past checks — not an isolated prompt.
Plain about AIAI can be wrong. Every assessment says so, and everything important should be confirmed with your vet.
Honest about species

Dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, and small mammals get species-specific reasoning — a rabbit that stops passing droppings is an emergency, and the assessment treats it that way. For reptiles and fish, it says plainly that its guidance is thinner, and points you toward an exotics vet.
