What is CatHunterCatHunter is a way to give every cat a visual identity.
Take a photo - and the cat gets a CatID.
It’s a unique, recognizable, camera-based ID - no chip required.
With a CatID, the cat becomes part of the system:
- they can be found if they go missing
- you can see who takes care of them
- you can connect vet services, shelters, support
- or simply keep their story alive in the city
CatHunter is not a social network.
Not a shelter.
It’s infrastructure - designed to weave free urban cats and owned animals into urban life.
And it all starts with one photo.
CatID is where it all beginsCatHunter is a platform built around a simple idea:
Every cat, street or domestic, deserves a unique visual identity.
No microchips. No paperwork. No barriers.
Just a phone camera. A few photos. That’s enough.
From that moment, the cat becomes visible - to people, to systems, to care networks.
CatID is not a file. It’s an interfaceWe’re creating a standard - like USB, but for cats.
A universal format to connect:
- health records
- geolocation (not public)
- sterilization status
- visual history
- neighborhood guardians
- AI diagnostics
- public alerts
- global movement
CatID is how a cat plugs into the world.
Before CatID, most cats are invisibleNo name. No data. No proof they exist.
CatHunter lets anyone give a cat its first ID - just by taking a picture.
This is not content. It’s care.
It scales like a game. But it’s not oneInspired by Pokémon Go, CatHunter lets people “hunt” real cats:
- take pictures
- unlock CatIDs
- update sightings
- become caretakers of the ones they see often
Every photo trains the model.
Every CatID grows the system.
Every user strengthens the map.
We’re building infrastructure, not entertainmentCatHunter is not a utility.
It’s not a rescue center.
It’s not another social network.
It’s the missing protocol between animals and the city.
The data layer cities didn’t know they needed.
The foundation that researchers, AI teams, veterinarians and municipalities can build on.
CatHunter is openAny team can build on top of CatID:
- AI diagnostics
- vet logistics
- loss recovery
- behavioral tools
- local shelters
- state systems
We are not here to close the loop.
We are here to open the platform.
We believe that:- Every cat deserves to be seen
- Identity is the first step toward protection
- Technology should bring animals closer to humans - not the other way around
- One standard beats a thousand siloed solutions
CatHunter is not an app. It’s a languageA way to let people and animals understand each other - even if they don’t speak the same one.
