Pet Industry R&D

Research & Development

The pet industry, finally measured.

DataDig AI builds the data foundation the pet industry has never had — primary research, operating benchmarks, and the applied systems that run on top of them.

01Sources

Most industry data is estimated. Ours is collected.

Four independent collection channels, cross-validated against each other. Nothing enters the record on a single source.

Primary

Inside the working business

Field research within live operations: observation of real workflows, operator interviews, and structured surveys we run ourselves.

Zero-Party

Volunteered at intent

Assessments, configurators and intake tools inside products people already use — given deliberately, not inferred.

First-Party

Captured as work happens

Operating data from systems running inside live pet businesses: bookings, capacity, pricing, service history and outcomes.

Secondary

Validated against the field

Published industry, regulatory, registry and scientific sources — reconciled with what we observe directly.

02Output

What we build from it.

A reference layer, an operating layer, and the software that turns both into decisions.

Indexes

Breed, genetics, coat, health, training, breeding, whelping

Structured reference data across the animal itself — the layer that makes it possible to reason about an individual, not a category.

Benchmarks

Regional operating truth

Pricing, labor, capacity, equipment cost and utilization, by region and category.

Intelligence

Analysis for decision makers

Built for operators, manufacturers, brands, franchisors and investors.

Systems

The research doesn't get handed off. It gets built.

Applications, applied AI and augmented reality built directly on the data — each one becoming another instrument for collecting the next round.

03Method

The research and the engineering happen in the same room.

Research firms study an industry and hand findings to someone else. Software companies build first and learn afterwards.

We do both, which makes the loop short — and every product we ship becomes another instrument for collecting the next round of data.

  1. 01

    Observe

    Field, operator and registry collection

  2. 02

    Structure

    Normalized into indexes and benchmarks

  3. 03

    Build

    Systems deployed into live operations

  4. 04

    Return

    Deployment generates the next dataset

04Ventures

Where the research is deployed.

Operating companies built on the data layer, each returning first-party signal back into it.
