Quick answer
Veterinary practices can use AI for client comms and reminders, marketing, drafting policies and reports, and answering common non-clinical queries — freeing the team for animal care. Client and clinical records must stay in secure practice systems and out of public AI tools, and clinical decisions stay with vets.

Doing it safely
Governance first
Client and clinical records must stay in secure practice systems and out of public AI tools. Before rolling anything out, tidy permissions, put a simple AI usage policy in place, keep sensitive data out of public tools, and keep a human in the loop — all part of our AI Adoption service.
