Story

Our Wearable is like an Apple Watch for pets, it keeps track of how many calories they’ve burned to inform the meal plans, and built-in GPS keeps them safe outside.   


The Petbiz Healthkit takes the guesswork out of mealtime by creating custom nutrition plans with a bowl that tells you how much to feed. 




We’re not saying you’re a bad pet-parent, we just know it’s near impossible to consider all of this when you feed them, which is why obesity is so common. How do we know this? We’ve developed Petbiz Healthkit with the help of renowned vet surgeon Dr. Frank, who has seen countless of pets with obesity and related health issues come into his clinic. 


The app calculates how much food your specific pet should eat of the favorite brand you’re feeding them. We look at the amount of protein, grain, and calories that are inside your preferred brand, and based on that and your pet gives a recommendation for how much they should eat.


The amount is sent over to the Smart Bowl, which then knows and tells you how much you should pour and displays the weight as you fill the bowl.


 The bowl has a built-in scale, which is highly accurate as just a few kibbles more or less can make a big difference in a pet’s daily diet. A  clear, splash-proof display shows the amount of food as well as a little green indicator when the amount is just right for your pet. 


When you’ve filled to the suggested amount for your pet, the indicator light turns green, so you don’t have to remember exact measurements. When you’re over, it will turn red telling you you’re giving more than recommended. 



 The bowl also sends the actual feeding data back to the app, so there’s no cheating. If someone in your family has been tricked by a shrewd doggo or cat looking for extra munch, the bowl will immediately tell on them as the app shows you how much has actually gone into the bowl and how much has been eaten.



 The outer bowl is made of food-grade ABS, and safe to rinse. Even the display is splash-proof, extremely durable, and made to last, just like the Wearable. Both products can handle a splash and a drop without issue.



The inner bowl is made of anti-bacterial stainless steel, you can remove it, easily clean it and it is coated with an antibacterial treatment. This is important to prevent pet-acne, those are the little black spots on the chin of pets when they eat from a bowl that’s not clean.



 You can use the bowl on its own, but it’s even better with our wearable. It tracks activity levels and location, determining how many calories they need, and telling you their exact location in case they ever wander off.


The Wearable combined with the Smart Bowl is a complete Health Management System, and the most effective way to manage the weight, health and fitness of your pet at home.  And it doesn’t just work for dogs, it’s also suitable for cats that are 9lbs/4kg and over to give you the same awesome features for your feline friend.


The wearable is like an Apple Watch for your pet, it monitors vital health signs and provides valuable historical data you can show your vet.


Inside the wearable, we’ve built an incredibly sophisticated GPS tracker. You can set a virtual parameter around your property with the E-fence feature to get a notification when your 4-legged  friend wanders of.


In the unfortunate event that your pet gets lost, the wearable tells you with pin-point precision where they are on a map.


To make sure the wearable doesn’t run out of power in case of an emergency, we’ve engineered the battery to last up to 30 days on a single charge. That means you’re only charging it 12 times in an entire year! 


The Wearable comes with a cute charging cable that can be used to reset the device and swappable covers for endless style upgrades. We’ll ship it with the Blue Camo cover, but we’ll release more designs in the future.


The wearable does not rely on WiFi or Bluetooth, but the latest cellular technology (NB-IoT to be exact). This means it’s both extremely power efficient and never out of reach, which is important if your pet gets lost. It’s currently not available in every country, so we’ve limited the shipping countries for this reward.


Because the wearable doesn’t rely on WiFi, but works anywhere outside, we’ve included a little sim card, just like in your phone. This means that the Wearable comes with a monthly subscription to keep it connected to the network. This isn’t something we make a profit on, it’s what we need to pay the carrier, like AT&T or Vodafone, to keep your Wearable connected.

You can choose to pay $3.99 a month if you pay for 2 years in advance, or $6.99 if you prefer to renew on a monthly basis. To thank you for backing our Kickstarter, we’ll pay the first 3 months for you, and if you leave a review after you’ve received your reward, we’ll extend that to 6 months free coverage!


This is Fortune Cookie. Originally from the streets of Shanghai until she was saved by one of our team members. Fortune Cookie didn’t look so great. She was extremely undernourished and suffering from severe gum infections. About two months later Fortune Cookie was nice and fluffy. However, we now faced the opposite problem: Fortune Cookie was getting a little bit too chunky. It’s difficult because you don’t want to withhold food when she’s already had so little during her two years on the streets. Thanks to the Petbiz Healthkit it was easy to carefully monitor her activity levels and eating habits so that her diet could be tweaked when necessary. Fortune Cookie was able to get to her ideal weight without having to deprive her of anything substantial.

Fortune Cookie’s journey







Petbiz was founded in 2018 with the vision to transform at-home pet health. Joining forces with leading experts in veterinary medicine, like Dr. Frank, we started working on a way to keep pets healthier at home. Our team consists of over 36 engineers, designers, pet specialists, and two rescue cats that wandered into our office.


Healthkit is a sophisticated piece of tech for your pet, the Wearable contains motion sensors and an algorithm trained to translate motion into useful data. We’ve put an incredible amount of love and effort into these products, from the colors to the circuit boards, to create what we think is the most sophisticated way to keep pets healthy at home. 


In mainland China you can buy the G-20 Pro Wearable, which is the bottom PCB, but the version you’re getting from Kickstarter is the G20i-pro, the top one, which has different components and firmware.


If you see the Wearable or the bowl for sale in Mainland China, don’t buy these unless that’s where you live! They are not Healthkit compatible and don’t work outside of China. Kickstarter is the first and only place where you can get the brand new G20i-pro & matching bowl plus an international version of the app.


Kickstarter is a place where people with bright new ideas can get the support they need to make it a reality. We need to hit our funding goal on Kickstarter to make sure we have enough supporters across the world. Once the campaign is over and the funding goal is met, your card will be charged and we’ll ask for your shipping details.

So don’t worry, you can back our project today and if we don’t meet our goal your card won’t be charged, and even if we do reach our target, you can still change your mind until the end of the campaign.
