In this episode of the Veterinary Innovation Podcast, Shawn Wilkie and Dr. Ivan Zak welcome David Teaster, Product Marketing Director at SATELLAI, to explore how the company is using satellite technology and AI to revolutionize pet safety and wellness. While many wearables focus on simple tracking, SATELLAI’s innovation goes further by integrating a comprehensive ecosystem of tools that help pet owners understand their pets’ health and behavior.

David explains how the SATELLAI collar functions as an early warning system, using activity monitoring to alert owners to potential health issues they might otherwise miss. The conversation also covers the technology behind their precision GPS, which leverages five global navigation satellite systems for reliability, as well as their AI-powered features for answering pet-related questions. Behind all of this is the idea that technology can help bridge the gap between how pets feel and what their owners can see. David shares his perspective on why these tools matter, how they fit into the bigger picture of caring for dogs, and where the future of connected pet care might be headed.
