HerbHound

HerbHound is a mobile + web AI-assisted app that helps pet owners use alternative and holistic care safely, without replacing a veterinarian. Users log symptoms, current meds, diet, and diagnoses, then get a risk-screened list of complementary options (e.g., omega-3s, probiotics, acupuncture, mobility exercises, calming protocols) with clear evidence grades, dosing ranges, contraindications, and “do not combine with” warnings. The app flags urgent red-flag symptoms and pushes a vet-visit checklist instead of pretending to diagnose. It also includes a supplement label scanner that checks for problematic ingredients (xylitol, excessive vitamin D, unsafe essential oils) and quality signals (third-party testing claims). A simple care plan builder tracks outcomes (itching score, stool quality, pain/mobility) so owners can stop wasting money on random products. Monetization: subscription plus affiliate links to vetted brands (disclosed).
