It’s finally time to get it out there.

Our team has been in stealth mode for just under a year now, so I thought it was a good time to finally start talking about what we’ve been up to. As a veterinary oncologist, and having been immersed in the veterinary profession since I was 14 years old, I’ve had the opportunity to see and work in just about every facet of the profession. From chicken barns for research, to small animal clinics, to specialty hospitals and research institutions, this diverse experience has empowered our team to critically evaluate what veterinary teams need in both the short-term and long-term.

Our mandate was developed to serve three primary goals:

  1. Veterinary teams deserve tools actually built by veterinarians that they can trust and contribute to.

  2. Veterinary teams deserve tools that will improve their quality of life.

  3. We will always build tools that help improve patient care and patient service.

In 2023, as a clinician, I was frustrated. My administrative time far surpassed my clinical time, and I was feeling burnout more than ever. Fortunately, our team was formed behind the scenes with the goal to empower clinicians to do better work, faster work, and really focus on what we trained to do—provide care for animals.

Our profession has changed dramatically over the last few years, with some changes for the better and some certainly for the worse. We felt it was time to put the reins back in the hands of veterinary teams and make a real clinical impact. At ANI.ML, we are dedicated to developing AI-based solutions that not only enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of veterinary practices but also ensure that veterinarians can focus on what truly matters: delivering high-quality care to their patients.

We look forward to sharing more about our journey, our innovations, and how we aim to transform the veterinary profession. Stay tuned as we continue to work towards creating a brighter future for veterinary medicine!

The medical consulting platform. What is it?

To help empower veterinary teams, we first needed to acknowledge the shortage of veterinarians, particularly veterinary specialists. The corporatization of veterinary medicine has had a dilutional effect, and given years of poor intern and resident salaries and quality of life, we are seeing a decline in new veterinary specialists each year. Access to specialty care is typically concentrated in high-density cities where corporate institutions continue to build and expand. We wanted to provide remote and rapid access to care for veterinary teams so you never feel alone, leading to the creation of our consulting platform.

The platform is simple to use. You create an account with ANI.ML, select the specialty you want to engage with and then the specific specialist. Upload your referral documents and answer a brief list of questions, and you're done. Within 24 hours of receipt, you’ll receive a response from one of our specialists. If you need to revisit the same case as things change, that’s no problem either.

For specialists, we recognized that unless you worked for larger labs or corporations with internal consultation platforms, there was no way for veterinary specialists to act independently and consult remotely (except through virtual health or phone calls). We wanted to create a platform that allows veterinary specialists to work from anywhere in the world, at any time, and provide remote care to teams in need. This also offers specialists the unique opportunity to represent their respective practices and enhance their relationships with primary care veterinarians.

The future.

We have several exciting products currently in development, and I’m thrilled to share them with you soon. Like any innovative venture, these things take time. However, we are committed to transparency throughout the entire process, from development to deployment. Moving forward, we’ll be sharing our entire journey with you, the veterinary community, so you know exactly what we’re building and how we’re building it. It’s important to us that you understand how our products work, the research we are engaged in, and our mission to transform the veterinary profession.
