Frequently Asked Questions

Vigil is an intelligent wearable and mobile app designed to help dog owners monitor their pet’s well‑being. It learns each dog’s unique behaviour patterns and notifies you when something seems out of the ordinary.

The Vigil collar contains low‑power motion sensors that capture your dog’s activity throughout the day. Our algorithms establish a baseline and detect deviations that may signal restlessness or distress. You receive updates via the app with clear, actionable insights.

Our first product focuses on motion and behaviour because it provides enormous insight while keeping the device lightweight and affordable. We’re designing Vigil with modularity in mind, so future versions may include heart‑rate, respiratory and other sensors as optional upgrades.

No. Vigil prioritises privacy by processing data on the device whenever possible. We do not record audio or video without your explicit consent, and we never share your dog’s data with third parties.

We are currently in development and plan to begin limited beta testing later this year. Sign up for the waitlist on our home page to receive updates and the opportunity to participate in early access programmes.
