February 15-21, 2026

A new white paper from VetSoftwareHub, Companion Animal Veterinary Software: Part I, Navigating Practice Challenges with Support of Technology and AI, dives into how rapidly advancing technology can help today’s veterinary practices successfully navigate modern challenges.

The authors examine how new software products, including AI-powered applications, can play a vital role in a practice’s software ecosystem.

The paper claims, “These applications can address practice efficiency, eliminate drudgery, build client loyalty, grow the client base and visits in accordance with the goals of the practice, while advancing the standard of care delivered.”
