How it works

Hear what your pet is actually saying

Telltail listens to a bark or a meow and reads the sound itself — the pitch through the call, how long it lasts, how often it repeats.

Shows its working

Every reading shows the measurement behind it and a confidence value you can check.

It tells you when it does not know

If a sound is unclear, or not an animal at all, Telltail says so instead of guessing.

No made-up sentences

It does not turn a meow into a sentence. No product can, and we do not claim to.

Dogs and cats, one app

Barks, meows and little clues.

Barks, yips, howls and whimpers. Meows, purrs, hisses and caterwauls. All analysed on your phone — no internet, no cloud.

A feeding routine guide, step by step
Honest by design

Describes sounds. Never diagnoses.

Any change in appetite, weight, drinking, breathing or energy that lasts more than a day or two is worth a call to your vet. Telltail describes sounds — it does not diagnose, and it will not try to.

No internet needed. Nothing sent to the cloud.
