The problem

Laminitis affects 1 in 7 horses. There is no cure, but with earlier, more accurate data, there is prevention. AnFiTest wanted that data in the hands of horse owners: in the field, in real time, without waiting for a vet.

To raise a seed round, an idea isn't enough. Investors needed to see the product working.

What we built

iOS and Android apps

Designed and built from the ground up. Production-ready, not a demo.

Raspberry Pi hardware prototype

Firmware written, hardware assembled, and integrated into the physical shell. Hardware and software solved as one product, not two.

A three-organisation build

Delivered alongside the Internet of Caring Things and the UK National Innovation Centre for Ageing.

Where it is now

Security audit and cross-device testing are underway, and the investor presentation is ready. Henrietta is pitching international backers with a working product, built entirely in the North East.

Henrietta and the team have known exactly what they are building from day one. It has been a solid project to be part of.
