Pets go missing
More than 10 million pets a year slip through an open door, hop a fence, or break free from a leash.
One in three pets goes missing this year. A grain-of-rice microchip and a registry that actually answers the phone is the difference between a lost weekend and a lost pet.

The microchip is encoded with your pet's unique ID and sits just under the skin between the shoulder blades. It has no battery, no GPS, and no off-switch — it cannot track your pet's location, but any veterinarian or shelter on the continent can read it with a handheld scanner and look up your contact info in seconds.
Encoded once. Registered once. Read for the rest of their life.

The implant is a routine, walk-in procedure at any veterinary clinic — typically bundled with a vaccination visit. No anaesthesia required.
The chip is placed just beneath the skin between the shoulder blades. The needle is a hair larger than a vaccination needle. Most pets don't flinch.
We connect the chip's ID to your contact information. Update your phone, address or email any time — free for the life of the chip.
The chip is permanent, the tag is the call-to-action. Most finders don't carry a scanner — a collar tag still does the fast, friendly work.
When a shelter or clinic scans your pet, the ID surfaces an entry in our database — your name, your number, the chip's history. Our team is reachable 24/7. The reunion happens in hours, not weeks.
