ProTech Animal Intelligence, Inc. (PTAI) is a privately held company transforming end-of-life (EOL) pet care through data science. Our AI-powered platform forecasts health decline in senior dogs and promotes timely interventions to extend longevity and enhance quality-of-life (QOL). Through an ecosystem of strategic partnerships, pet parents gain timely and discounted access to telehealth services, in-home consultations, prescriptions, grief counseling, hospice care, euthanasia, memorial planning, and more.
The $143+ billion pet care industry is on the cusp of a transformative shift and explosive growth. With 89.7+ million dogs in the U.S. and 52% of dog-owning households having a senior dog (7+ years), the need for innovative, data-driven solutions to support EOL decision making has never been greater. In a recent survey, 68% of pet parents expressed interest in technology to aid EOL decisions, representing an underserved market ripe for disruption.
PTAI was founded in 2023 by Jeffrey R Schab, a seasoned & successful entrepreneur with a 25-year record of innovation and valuation creation across both human and animal health sectors. From the development of a predictive health wearable for horses (NIGHTWATCH® smart halter™) to the formation of health analytics platform company (81qd), Jeffrey has a deep understanding of what it takes to successfully start, operate, and grow a business from the ground up.
