Overview
Overview
A 27 gram smart collar tag that listens to your pet and writes back in plain English. Microphones pick up the sound, a gyroscope picks up the movement, and the model turns the pair into one of 50 or so emotional readings in about 1.2 seconds.
The same tag carries WiFi and Bluetooth tracking, so you also know where they are.
Which pets it works for
Which pets it works for
Cats and dogs, any size. The strap adjusts across S, M and L, so it fits a slim cat neck and a broad terrier neck from the same box.
At 27.2 g there is nothing to notice, and the housing is bite resistant ABS for the ones who chew.
What is in the box
What is in the box
The tag, an adjustable collar strap, a magnetic charging cable and a short start card.
Charge it for an hour, scan the card, done. No tools and no pairing dance.
The app and the subscription
The app and the subscription
The app is free for life and the firmware updates are free forever, so the tag keeps getting better after you have paid for it.
There is an optional Plus tier at $1.99 a month for deep health analytics. Your first year of it is included, and everything on this page works without it.

TailTalk
*It reads emotion, not sentences. The app turns a sound into what your pet most likely wants: food, attention, discomfort, alert. It is a very good guess made from 1.5 million labelled samples, not a literal transcript.
*It is not a vet. A discomfort flag is a reason to look closer, not a diagnosis.

NEW SMART TECH
They have been telling you for years
A whine at the door, a chirp at 6am, the bark that is different from the other barks. You already know something is being said. You just have to guess at what, every single time, and half the guesses are wrong.
TailTalk stops the guessing. The tag hears the sound and feels the movement, and the app tells you what your pet most likely wants, in a sentence, in about 1.2 seconds.
Understand your pet in 3 steps
-
01 Wear the collar
27.2 grams on a magnetic clasp, adjustable from a kitten neck to a 25 kg dog. They forget it is there inside a day.
-
02 Real time AI analysis
High sensitivity mics capture the sound, a gyroscope captures the movement, and the model filters out the TV, the traffic and the other dog.
-
03 Instant app update
A plain sentence lands in the app with a mood tag, and the whole day is kept in a history you can scroll back through.
CORE TECHNOLOGY
Every sound, decoded in 1.2 seconds
Built on 1.54 million labelled pet recordings. Sound from the mic, movement from the gyroscope, one reading in the app.

THE SCIENCE
Why a bark can be read at all
Animals do not have words, but they do have patterns. The same pitch, length and body movement come back every time an animal wants the same thing, and that pattern is consistent enough to be learned.
Our pet model was trained on 1.54 million labelled recordings, each one tied to what the animal actually did next. Sound alone is ambiguous. Sound plus movement is not, which is why there is a gyroscope in there next to the microphone.
Usage scenarios
-
Home alone
See what happened while you were at work, and whether the crying started at minute four or hour four.
-
Something hurts
Discomfort has its own sound signature. A pattern that keeps repeating is the nudge to book the appointment early.
-
Out of the door
An open gate stops being a disaster. Bluetooth for close range, WiFi beyond it, accurate to about 5 metres.
-
The daily diary
One page every evening. Mood through the day, what they asked for most, and how this week compares to last.
HARDWARE
Small enough that they forget it.
A tracker your cat resents is a tracker that comes off in the hedge. This one weighs 27.2 grams, about the same as four sheets of paper folded up, and it sits flat against the neck instead of swinging.
It charges on a magnet, fills in an hour, and then you leave it alone for two weeks. IP65 means rain and bath water are not an event.
FAQ
How accurate is it, and how fast?
How accurate is it, and how fast?
The tag picks up vocal and vibration data through high sensitivity microphones, and the model recognises more than 50 emotional meanings. A reading reaches your phone in about 1.2 seconds.
Accuracy against our labelled test set is 94.6%. Read it as a very well informed guess about intent, not a word for word transcript.
Is it waterproof, and how long does the battery last?
Is it waterproof, and how long does the battery last?
IP65, so rain, splashing and a bath are all fine. The 280 mAh cell runs up to 14 days on a charge and the magnetic charger refills it in an hour.
Which pets does it support?
Which pets does it support?
Cats and dogs of any size. The strap adjusts across S, M and L, so it fits a light cat and a heavy dog out of the same box.
Is the app free?
Is the app free?
Yes. The app is free for life, and so are the firmware updates.
There is an optional Plus tier at $1.99 a month for deeper health analytics. Your first year is included and nothing on this page depends on it.
Will my cat tolerate wearing it?
Will my cat tolerate wearing it?
Most do within a day. At 27.2 g it is lighter than a standard ID tag and bell, and it sits flat rather than dangling.
Start with an hour a day for the first few days rather than clipping it on and walking away.
What if we do not get on with it?
What if we do not get on with it?
15 days to return or exchange, plus a 1 year warranty on the hardware. Message us and we sort it out.

Working well on both our dogs so far. What it says they are thinking is pretty funny, but it does match their personalities
if you have a pet honestly just get it
It actually helps me work out what he needs, and the tracking has been spot on so far.
the diary at the end of the day is my favourite part
Turns out the 6am noise means water bowl empty. Three years I thought she was just being dramatic
weighs nothing, my cat didnt even react
Battery is genuinely around two weeks for us
Not a magic decoder, it gives you a mood and a best guess. Still way more than I had before, but manage expectations
flagged discomfort for two days straight, vet found an ear infection 🥲
took him about a day to stop noticing it
charging is a magnet, one hour, thats it
got the brown one, looks like a normal collar not a gadget
