New technology in the consulting room only earns trust if vets set the rules for it, not a software company. So we’re standing up an independent, vet-chaired advisory council, intended to work alongside the RCVS, BVA and VMD, never around them.
Vets set the rules
It’s being built to bring practising vets, vet firms, farmers, universities and regulators around one table. It has a published remit, an independent chair, and an open conflict-of-interest register, to help set the standards for responsible technology and diagnostics on farm.
Confirmed: our lead veterinary adviser
A practising RCVS-registered farm-vet and practice director, our lead vet and veterinary adviser. They’re supporting an 18-month field-validation study on real farms with real animals, checking the tools do what we say before anyone leans on them. We’ll name them publicly once consent is confirmed.
Other seats forming now
A large-animal vet lead, a vet-school academic chair, and an observer seat for the RCVS, BVA or VMD are being invited, not yet filled. We’ll name them when they’re real.
