AI and horse health

Sleip develops AI-tools to aid in a better understanding of how and why horses move the way they do.  We are working towards a future of fewer instances of equine lameness, a faster recovery process in the event of lameness, and a healthier equine community at large.

Our vision

Our vision is to improve horse welfare by making Sleip's technology available for all those who care for horses – improving diagnostics and promoting collaboration around the health of each individual horse. 

Prevention is a key component of this vision. Just as important is ensuring horse owners and health professionals can work successfully together in addressing any small sign of lameness. Continuously and successfully tracking the horse's progress to ensure optimal rehab into full performance.
