Pawse.ai - An acoustic regulation system for dogs

Hi Product Hunt. I'm Katherine from Pawse.ai, and together with co-founder Luis Magalhães, we built Pawse.ai because of Henry. (https://www.producthunt.com/products/pawse-ai?utm_source=other&utm_medium=social)

Henry is an English Bulldog we rescued in Cape Town. When we moved to Porto, the anxiety got worse. Every time we left the apartment, he would pace, pant, and destroy whatever was closest to the door. We tried everything: toys, treats, leaving the TV on, three different apps. Nothing held.

I started reading the research on canine auditory stress responses and realised the existing apps were built for human ears. Calming playlists, binaural beats, nature sounds, they feel right to us, but dogs hear differently. Their stress frequencies are different. What relaxes a human can be neutral or even agitating for a dog.

So we built something calibrated for Henry, not for humans. Frequencies, patterns, and transitions designed around how dogs actually process sound. Pawse.ai runs through your Apple TV or iPad while you're out. You control it from your phone. Five modes for different situations: separation, loud noise, travel, vet visits, and sleep.

The beta is free for two months, no card required. Henry is doing a lot better. I hope it helps yours too. Happy to answer anything about the science, the product, or Henry.
