Overview

Mission

Improve animal welfare by AI technology

What it reported doing in 2025

In 2025, the organization continued its primary program to develop an artificial intelligence-based veterinary diagnostic system. The AI system development progressed with continued work on machine learning models for animal health diagnostics and improving diagnostic algorithms. This directly supports the organization's exempt purpose of promoting animal welfare through technology innovation. Allocation: 100% Program Services ($48,000).

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of voting board members are independent.
