Petriage partners with Crum & Forster

B2B pet health technology company Petriage and Crum & Forster Pet Insurance Group are joining forces to increase the number of pet parents who have access to Petriage’s online pet symptom checker and its 24/7 nurse helpline.

“Driven by artificial intelligence and protected by a U.S. patent,” Petriage’s veterinarian-validated teletriage symptom analysis tool informs pet parents with 97%-plus accuracy of the urgency for seeking care for their ailing dog or cat, based on information they input about their pet’s symptoms. The phone-based Petriage Live consultative triage service provides advice to pet owners from a team of dedicated licensed veterinary nurses, after a pet owner’s use of the symptom checker.

Petriage, which is a team of ~10, was founded in 2016 and it raised $2.3 million.

“We are thrilled to join with Crum & Forster Pet Insurance Group, North America’s fourth-largest pet insurer by market share, to improve the overall quality of care to more pets. Our partnership not only validates Petriage’s innovative and industry-leading approach to Teletriage, it significantly increases the number of pet parents who can benefit from our connected care platform.” – Petriage CEO Joe Coury.

“Our partnership with Petriage and the access it provides to their symptom analysis tool and 24/7 vet nurse helpline enhances the value of our insurance to pet parents, supporting our mission to help pets enjoy longer and healthier lives.” – Bob Capobianco, SVP of Crum & Forster Pet Insurance Group.
