Software for veterinary medicine, by people who live it

I'm Gunnar Berger. My wife, Dr. Samee Berger, is a veterinarian. When we opened our hospital (mountainview.vet), she had one rule: she doesn't deal with the business. So I wear whatever hat she needs. CFO, all the time. Janitor, sure. I've fixed our public toilets. I handle anything that isn't medical. And, like a lot of husbands, I'm convinced I can fix anything, so when my wife kept hitting problems with her PIMS, I did what any husband with 20 years in big tech would do: I started building solutions.

Every product started as a fix for her own hospital, tested daily on real patients and real staff, not sketched in a boardroom. VetPACS came from staring at our subscriptions and finding a ridiculous line item for "backups" of our PACS. I knew storage cost pennies, and we were paying thousands a year for it. So I built our own.

VetAI took all that imaging data and pointed the latest ML models at another problem: the quiet self-doubt every solo doctor knows. Don't get me wrong, my wife is a fantastic vet, but we all second-guess ourselves. I was already working with this kind of AI at my day job and thought it would be fun to bring to her field. Today it screens every radiograph and flags findings, so she has a second opinion on every image. It's still in beta, and I won't charge for it until it's trained on the millions of images it takes to be truly medical grade. But it already gives her real peace of mind, and that was the whole point.

Keepsake started when I looked at what our outsourced cremation provider was charging us, and what that "free" clay paw print was really costing. Honestly, as a non-vet, I just thought it looked cheap, and I couldn't believe we handed them to families at $50 a piece. I told my wife I could make something better for less. So I built a way for our staff to snap one photo and have a slate-engraved keepsake print, start to finish in about a minute, no special training. For reasons I still don't fully understand, it's become our most popular product. Our clients love it, so we keep making it better.

Then there's Insights. My wife used to reach for a book to double-check a drug dosage, and I told her I could build something that looked it up faster. I did, and it works remarkably well. It's trained on more than two million journal articles and textbooks, and it's the most advanced AI reference I know of for vets. It's free while we prove out whether it earns a place in daily practice. Changing habits is hard, but the technology is genuinely something, and I'm proud of it.

So that's our story. Earlier this year I quit my day job to do this full time. It's been an interesting ride. I've learned I'm not much of a salesman, but I'm still pretty good at solving problems for my wife, and now for our customers too. If you'd like to chat, send a message.
