Ollie Secures Patent for AI Tool to Forecast Canine Parasite Infections

Ollie has patented groundbreaking technology that uses AI to predict intestinal parasite fecal test results from smartphone photos of dog stool, achieving 85% accuracy. Integrated into Ollie’s health screening app, this tool empowers pet owners to identify health risks early, prompting them to seek confirmatory testing from veterinarians. With over 80% of dog parks testing positive for parasites, many dog owners unknowingly risk their pets’ health and the health of other dogs. Tara Zedayko, Ollie’s chief scientific officer, emphasizes that this innovation serves as a vital first line of defense in proactive health management. The AI-driven analysis allows users to decide whether to bring stool samples to veterinarians, enhancing pet wellness and safety. As Ollie continues to innovate with its third health screening patent—following the acquisition of DIG Labs—it is committed to setting new industry standards in proactive pet health solutions. A launch date for the technology has yet to be announced.
