On-device AI · No account · Works offline

A VetKeep alternative
that reads your vet documents without the cloud.

VetKeep and Pawza both let you photograph a vet document and fill in the record from it, so the difference is where the work happens. VetKeep is a cloud service, with an account, your records on its servers, and a conversational AI chat that answers questions about your pet's history. Pawza reads the text on your device, and with Pawza Pro on iOS 26 and an eligible device, Apple Intelligence fills in the fields on the device too. Records stay on your devices with no account and no server of ours, Pawza works offline, and you can pay once for Pro instead of subscribing.
