316 - Eric Humbert | Invoxia

Veterinary medicine has long relied on "snapshots" of health taken during clinic visits, but what happens during the months in between? This week, Shawn Wilkie and Dr. Ivan Zak speak with Eric Humbert, Head of Science & AI at Invoxia, about how wearable technology is helping veterinarians monitor pets more continuously and more objectively. Eric explains how the Biotracker uses advanced signal processing and AI to track heart rate, respiratory rate, activity, and recovery trend outside the clinic — and how the Biotrack veterinary platform gives clinics a dedicated dashboard to monitor all their patients remotely. From earlier detection of chronic disease deterioration to post-op follow-up and treatment monitoring, the episode looks at how remote monitoring could support more proactive care while also opening new opportunities for client engagement and recurring revenue. The episode offers a practical look at where wearable data may fit into real veterinary workflows, what still needs to be solved, and why continuous monitoring could become an important part of the future of care.
