Galen

Mission

We add life to your pets.

The challenge

1 in 3 cats in the Netherlands is overweight, driving preventable disease and shortened lifespans. The "Care Gap" exists because current smart feeders are merely automated timers, they cannot track the physiological state of the pet. Owners lack a non-invasive way to track the changes on the pet. This leads to late-stage diagnosis of metabolic and cardiac issues. We are addressing the need for a proactive health-monitoring system that integrates physiological sensing into the daily routine.

The solution

Galen is a passive health-monitoring mat for cats. Placed under their usual resting spots, the mat passively measures the vitals generating data streams to build a personalised baseline and flags deviations early, turning a daily feeding moment into a vital-signs check, no wearables needed.
