A complete toolkit for lost and found pet recovery.

This page condenses the supporting `app-features.html` template into a web-friendly version while preserving the same priorities: reporting speed, AI matching, map search, and rescue collaboration.

πŸ“Έ

AI Photo Matching

Upload a photo and our AI scans every found report, comparing coat colour, markings, face shape, and breed characteristics to surface likely matches.

πŸ“

GPS Location Matching

Reports are matched inside your local radius so a found pet a few kilometres away gets flagged fast without manual searching.

πŸ—ΊοΈ

Interactive Map

Browse live lost and found reports alongside vets, shelters, and rescue organisations across Australia in one map view.

πŸ”Ž

Scan Online Posts

Paste text from Facebook, Nextdoor, or local community pages and let AI cross-check it against active reports.

πŸ“±

Biometric ID Scanning

Register close-up photos of your pet's face, eyes, and nose to improve identification when someone finds them.

πŸ₯

Vet & Shelter Directory

Find nearby clinics, shelters, and rescue partners without leaving the app or opening a second search.

Area Alerts

Get notified as soon as a matching lost or found pet is reported in your area so you can act quickly.
