TickTriage

TickTriage is a mobile AI + traditional app that helps people quickly assess tick bite risk and what to do next. Users snap a clear photo of the tick (or the bite area if the tick is gone), answer a short checklist (location, attachment time estimate, symptoms, pet exposure), and get a practical next-step plan: removal guidance, when to save the tick, when to seek urgent care, and what symptoms to watch for. It also generates a shareable summary for a clinician or vet and sets reminders for symptom monitoring over the next few weeks. The app includes region-aware guidance (based on user location) and a simple log for families and pet owners. This is not a diagnosis tool; it’s a decision-support and documentation tool designed to reduce panic, improve removal technique, and shorten time-to-care when it matters.
