Our Content Standards
Furrgency's emergency guides, CPR tutorial, and first aid content are curated from established veterinary protocols — not generated by AI. Here is exactly how we source, review, and maintain that content.
Evidence-Based vs. AI-Generated: The Distinction
- Emergency guides
- CPR tutorial
- First aid checklist
- Symptom decision tree
- Poison control data
- AI Document Scanner
- AI Symptom Analysis
Clearly labelled. Informational only. Premium & above.
Our Editorial Principles
Every emergency guide, symptom description, and first aid step is sourced from peer-reviewed veterinary literature, AVMA guidelines, or established clinical protocols — not generated on the fly.
Our CPR tutorial follows the RECOVER Initiative guidelines — the same evidence-based framework used in veterinary schools and emergency clinics worldwide.
Each emergency guide includes a "Sources & References" section with direct links to the authoritative sources used. You can verify every claim independently.
Content is reviewed against updated AVMA and RECOVER guidelines on a regular basis. When guidelines change, our content is updated to reflect the latest evidence.
When clinical evidence is limited or conflicting, we default to the most conservative, safest recommendation — and always direct users to call a veterinarian immediately.
Every guide includes an explicit disclaimer that it is for informational purposes only and does not replace a professional veterinary examination. We never overstate what the app can do.

AI Feature Transparency
Two features in Furrgency use artificial intelligence. Both are clearly labelled in the app, available only on Premium plans and above, and are always informational only.
Uses a large language model (LLM) to extract pet health data from documents you upload (vaccination records, vet reports, etc.). The AI reads and summarises the document — it does not generate medical advice.
Generates a personalised response based on symptoms you describe in free text. This is clearly labelled as AI-generated and informational only. It supplements — but does not replace — the evidence-based symptom decision tree.
All content in Furrgency — whether evidence-based or AI-assisted — is for informational purposes only and does not constitute veterinary advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always consult a licensed veterinarian for medical decisions. In a life-threatening emergency, call your vet or an emergency animal hospital immediately.
