Hoomanely’s building a smart feeding bowl and an AI platform to help owners spot when their pup is sick
Hoomanely’s EverBowl feeding station uses sensors to record food and water consumption, eating speed, chewing and swallowing sounds, facial temperature, and oral motions, uploading the data to an AI platform that builds a health baseline for each dog. In an 18-month beta, it gathered about 5 million data points from over 80 dogs, identified a chipped-tooth infection and a tick-fever case, and led owners to veterinary care. The device costs $29 per month, and the company is planning formal studies to assess sensitivity, specificity, and predictive value while adding new hardware.
