🤖 What is Scout AI (Artificial Intelligence)?
Scout AI is your in-app guide for everyday dog care — from reminders and journaling prompts to practical tips based on your dog’s unique patterns.
Think of Scout as a calm co-pilot who helps you stay on top of the small daily routines that add up to a healthier, happier dog.
Scout is built around one key principle: adaptive journaling.
That means Scout learns from how (and what) you log — adapting its prompts and suggestions to match your dog’s routine.
If you log feeding, exercise, or stool entries often, Scout can highlight trends or gently remind you when something seems off or missing.
