PetCode: The smart pet tag for smarter pet care

Hey hunters! 👋 Karan here, co-founder @ PetCode and 17-year-old high school student. We started building PetCode from scratch over a year ago in May 2020 (our sophomore year of high school), and we’re ecstatic to be sharing on Product Hunt today 🥳 🤔 Problem Put bluntly, pet tags suck. They rust, fade over time, and store just 50 characters of information. Even worse, the only way to change the information on a pet tag is by buying a new one – they’re not updateable. We’ve got a simple goal here at PetCode: to make sure that if your pet gets lost, their identification tag is up to date and they’re represented by more than a fifth of a Tweet’s worth of information. 🛠 Solution A durable smart pet tag and a feature-rich mobile app. The PetCode tag has a QR code (and a built-in NFC chip) linked to a virtual pet profile for your pet. With our app, you can: ✓ Update tag information anytime, anywhere 📱 ✓ View the exact location when your tag is scanned 📍 ✓ Store 16x more information than regular tags ✅ ✓ Upload vaccinations, medication, veterinary contacts, and more. Make sure your furry friend comes home safe 😌 With PetCode Premium 🏆 (launching today!), you can increase your chances of reuniting with your pet with a bunch of specialized features: ✓ Notify nearby shelters in our network of over 6,000 shelters if your pet gets lost 🏠 ✓ Send blast notifications to nearby PetCode owners if you mark your pet as missing 🌳 ✓ See the IP Address of a tag scan if someone denies sharing their location with you 💻 🤑 Free Stuff As part of our launch, we’re offering some limited-time goodies: ✅ Refer a friend, and get our tag completely free – tag + shipping costs covered. The person you refer will also get a sweet 20% off their order. ✅ 20% off all orders with code PETHUNT 😎 The Team We're a fully distributed, all high school team spanning three time zones in two countries with one goal: keeping your pet safer. Boredom from school + free time from the pandemic + a burning desire to improve the lives of pet owners = PetCode 🐶 💖 Super huge thanks to @sorenrood and the entire Replit team for the tremendous support they’ve given us during our time in RV0 – we wouldn’t be the company we are today without them. You can read about our experience in the Replit Accelerator here – https://blog.replit.com/petcode. 🚀 Let us know what you think! We’d be happy to answer any questions you may have down below or via email (karan@petcodeusa.com).
