1. About Valkyrie

Valkyrie provides an AI-powered livestock monitoring platform designed to assist horse owners, trainers, and barn operators in identifying behavioral patterns that may indicate early signs of equine colic or other health concerns.

The Service utilizes computer vision technology through compatible camera systems to analyze animal movement and behavior and generate alerts when concerning patterns are detected.

Valkyrie is an informational monitoring tool only. Valkyrie is not a veterinary service, medical provider, diagnostic platform, emergency response system, or medical device.

No alert, score, notification, or recommendation provided by Valkyrie constitutes veterinary advice, diagnosis, treatment, or a guarantee of animal health.
