Development of a Gamified Pet Engagement and Wellness Mobile Application

The client aims to transition from a basic pet activity tracking app to a more engaging, gamified platform that encourages pet owners to interact more meaningfully with their animals. Current limitations include lack of user engagement, absence of reward mechanisms, and minimal content updates, which hinder customer retention and growth.

A mid-sized pet care startup focused on enhancing pet-owner relationships through technology, seeking to create an engaging wellness platform for dog owners.

• Develop a comprehensive mobile app featuring onboarding, activity tracking, and content management functionalities.
• Implement gamification elements such as badges and rewards that unlock discounts on pet-related products and services.
• Create an admin panel for easy content updates related to pet wellness, mindfulness, and educational materials.
• Design a polished user interface and interactive prototype suitable for investor presentations and product launch.
• Establish a scalable technology foundation to support increasing user base and content updates.

• User Onboarding Module: Collects pet and owner information such as age, breed, health conditions, and personal data.
• Activity Tracking System: Allows users to log and review pet exercise data, including duration, steps, route mapping, and historical stats.
• Content Management Section: Provides a dedicated space for mindfulness, wellness videos, and articles, managed via an admin panel.
• Rewards and Incentives Module: Issues badges for user achievements and offers discounts for pet products and services based on reward status.
• Interactive Prototype and Design Guidelines: Visual and functional prototypes supporting product validation and investor pitches.
• Landing Page Development: Establishes an online presence to boost credibility and market outreach.

• Third-party reward providers or discount platforms for reward redemption
• Content management system for updating wellness articles and videos
• Map services for activity route visualization

• App should support at least 10,000 active users at launch with scalability to 100,000+ users
• Ensure data privacy and security compliant with applicable regulations (e.g., GDPR)
• Achieve responsive performance with load times under 3 seconds for key screens
• Update content seamlessly via admin panel without app redeployment

The implementation of this gamified pet engagement platform is expected to significantly increase user engagement, leading to higher retention and growth in active users. Anticipated results include approximately 5,000+ active users within the first few months, improved customer loyalty through rewards, and enhanced brand credibility via a compelling online presence and investor-ready prototypes.
