Designed by cat parents, for cat parents
NekoSense is a lightweight clip-on sensor and a thoughtful app that turns your cat's everyday movement into something you can read — energy, rest, mood, in plain words. No jargon. No gadget wall. Just the two of you, a little more in sync.
NekoSense doesn't replace your vet — it helps you know when to call them.
We’ll only write when there’s something worth opening.
Two simple pieces — a clip-on sensor and an app — designed around your cat's comfort, not a spec sheet.
A small, comfortable clip-on your cat won't mind. It tracks how they move — play, rest, routine shifts — gently collecting the motion data that tells a story about their day. Light enough to forget. Thoughtful enough to matter.

Open it like a note from home: a clear snapshot of energy, rest, and mood — translated into words, not graphs. Space for every cat in the house. Updates that feel like checking in, not checking metrics.

Over time, patterns emerge — the zoomies after dinner, the long window naps, the subtle shifts only data would catch. It’s the arc of their life at home, building toward something bigger: real understanding.
Yours to keepNo complexity. Three simple steps, running quietly in the background.
A tiny motion sensor (IMU) sits flat on your cat's collar. It reads acceleration and rotation — walking, playing, resting, posture changes. No microphone. No camera. Just movement.
The sensor sends data to the NekoSense app over Bluetooth. The app talks to our AI, which looks for patterns — energy levels, sleep quality, changes in routine.
Open the app and see your cat's day in plain words. No charts to decode. If something changes, you'll know — and you'll have something concrete to share with your vet.
You’re not installing a “stack.” You’re making room for a creature who already has a personality, a schedule, and opinions. NekoSense fits that — quiet when life is loud, present when you’re curious.
Energy that maps to real life: play when they’re silly, stillness when they’re tucked in, hints when something seems off. It’s the difference between wondering and having a place to start the conversation — with them, or with your vet when it matters.
Sell you on fear. Drown you in alerts. Or pretend a wearable replaces a trained veterinarian. NekoSense helps you notice changes earlier — so when you visit the vet, you come with better questions, not fewer visits.
NekoSense isn’t a finished gadget — it’s the beginning of a longer conversation between you and your cat.
We start with movement — the richest window into how your cat is really doing. The clip-on sensor captures it gently, and the app makes sense of it for you. This is where we are now.
More sensors, same comfort. We’ll never add weight or bulk just to chase a spec sheet. Every new signal we add — temperature, posture, environment — earns its place by making your understanding richer without making the clip-on heavier.
Our long-term mission: build models that interpret cat behavior in depth. Not gimmick scores — real inference, trained on real data from real homes. One day, the gap between what your cat is doing and what you understand gets a little smaller.
I started NekoSense because my cat Vina had a health scare I didn't see coming. She seemed fine. She wasn't. I kept thinking: what if there was a simple way to notice the small changes before they become big ones? That's what we're building — not a gadget, but a way to listen more closely.
“We’re not building another gadget. We’re learning to listen — so that one day, what your cat is telling you doesn’t get lost in translation.”
— Jack Yeh, founder & cat dad
We’re building NekoSense with the people who’ll use it. Early supporters get first access, a voice in what we build next, and updates only when they’re worth your time.
