Brand guidelines

Foundations

CoVet, the product, uses AI. CoVet, the brand, is support for veterinary professionals. We don’t lead with AI. We lead with support. AI is the mechanism. Support is the promise.

Confidence when you walk in. Freedom when you walk out.

The CoVet brand promise

Purpose, vision, mission

Purpose

CoVet supports veterinary professionals with tools that reduce end-of-day catch-up across clinics, barns, and mobile practice. We make documentation easier during the visit, so your patients get your attention, not your keyboard.

Vision

A veterinary profession where you can focus on care and finish the day without feeling you’ll never get caught up.

Mission

CoVet exists to give veterinarians back their time, focus, and energy by easing the burden of documentation, so they can be more present in medicine and build more sustainable careers.

Core values

Experience

The challenges we want to address aren’t theoretical. We’ve lived them, and many of us still do.

In practice: CoVet’s medical team is at the heart of everything we do, supported by product, sales, and support teams with veterinary experience.

Reliability

We listen, capture the details, and fit the way you work.

In practice: if you mention a murmur mid-appointment, you can trust that CoVet helps you capture it in the notes.

Compassion

Veterinary professionals give so much care. We want to help them keep some for themselves.

In practice: we design to reduce burden, not raise expectations. Your attention is valuable, and everything we build keeps it with your patients.

How we deliver on the promise

Real-world experience

Our medical team keeps CoVet practical, clinical, and built for the realities of veterinary medicine.

The importance of good records

Clear notes aren’t just for compliance. They support continuity of care.

Flexible by design

CoVet adapts to how you work rather than forcing you to do things our way.

Human support

When you need help, or have a suggestion, you’ll always reach a real person who understands your work.

Positioning

For veterinary professionals and practices overwhelmed by documentation and follow-ups, CoVet helps reduce end-of-day catch-up and protect focus during appointments. Built by people with veterinary expertise, with security and support designed for real clinical workflows.

Our story

CoVet was founded by three people who came to veterinary medicine from different perspectives, but shared the same goal.

Mike Parent grew up in veterinary clinics as the son of a veterinarian who carried work home night after night. He later built a telemedicine business for veterinarians and saw the same pattern again: dedicated professionals losing time to documentation and admin.

Yannick Bloem came from a family of doctors and understood the toll documentation takes on healthcare professionals. With expertise in AI transcription, he saw an opportunity to build tools that could reduce that load in a practical, useful way.

Dr. Mike Mossop was living it as a practicing veterinarian. He knew firsthand what it meant to care deeply about the work and still feel buried by paperwork.

Together, they built CoVet to reduce the documentation burden, so veterinary professionals can stay focused on care and bring less work home.

Our role in the market

CoVet supports veterinary professionals with one of the most overlooked parts of the job: the documentation and follow-up work around the visit.

We are not the care itself, and we are not a replacement for clinical judgment. We help with the notes, follow-ups, summaries, and reporting that surround care.

CoVet helps make veterinary work more manageable, more sustainable, and less overwhelming.

Design principles

Human before AI

CoVet is built on AI. But the reason it works is human: the experience and judgement of the veterinary professionals who use it, and of the team behind it. We respect that work too much to fake it. So our brand never uses AI-generated imagery, AI animation, or stock photography. Every picture shows real veterinary professionals and their patients, in the settings they actually work in.

Clarity first

Every element has its place. If it doesn’t help the viewer understand, navigate, or feel supported, it doesn’t belong.

Warm, not clinical

Natural tones, soft contrast, and generous whitespace. Our palette and photography work together to feel approachable, even in professional contexts.

Grounded in real life

Avoid polished perfection. Favour authenticity in photography, plain human language in copy, and real imperfect environments over staged ones.

Consistent across touchpoints

Whether someone sees CoVet in an app store, at a conference, or in an email, the visual experience should feel unmistakably the same.

Accessible by default

We design for readability, contrast, and inclusion from the start. WCAG AA compliance is the baseline.
