Discover what Sleip users have to say about their experience

The Sleip tool is trusted by well-known equine clinics, veterinarians serving national teams, solo practitioners as well as physiotherapists, chiropractors, and farriers.

Professional riders, trainers and stables are increasingly adopting the app as part of their routine, working hand-in-hand with their veterinarians. This collaboration ensures the welfare of their horses and allows for the timely identification of potential injuries or issues before they become critical.

“This is useful for any sport horse in any discipline, as all can be susceptible to a higher risk of injury from training and/or competition."

— Olivia Rudolphi

Rudolphi Veterinary Service

”Sleip is an unparalleled complement to my subjective lameness evaluation. What's more, by having clients send me Sleip recordings, I can monitor progress better, remotely."

— Maria Terese Engell

Veterinarian and founder of Rider in Balance

"It’s great to have a tool like Sleip to back up your opinion and to be able to show precise metrics of any movement irregularity. It can work a bit like the cameras used for replay in ice hockey or football to prove your point."

— Lisa Lidbeck

Equine vet, FEI vet level 4

“Sleip is a really good tool for monitoring horses in training, for early detection of lameness, and it’s also very useful at the clinic. We use it to help identify the lame limb, and for comparisons before and after diagnostic analgesia for example.”

— Marie Rhodin

DVM, DECVSMR and associate professor

“The fact that you only need your phone, in combination with the precision of the science and technology, makes an impact on the way we can use objective gait analysis in our work”.

— Tim Ober

John R. Steele & Associates

“Sleip helps me unveiling the hidden language of movement, contributing to the right diagnosis.”

— Erik Bergman

DVM and Co-founder of the SMDC clinic

“Those that live in fear of tech replacing vets are missing the point. This is a tool to make you better. Sleip is better at seeing small things than what we are.”

— Marcus Swail

Irish team veterinarian

"We use Sleip to track horses of the Swedish national eventing team. Sleip helps us take care of our athletes by optimizing day-to-day trainings and in trying to prevent lameness.”

— Enar Tollig

Team Veterinarian, Swedish eventing team

“I was first introduced to Sleip at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. I’ve always liked the fact that it is so easy to use the Sleip app in the field, but I also like the fact that the team behind Sleip are listening to us users, like developing the slow-motion functionality, which I really like.”

— Jan-Hein Swagemakers

German team veterinarian

"Our team has integrated the use of the Sleip app into various aspects of our daily work including longitudinal assessment of individual horses movement, ability to document a horses asymmetry and also the option to share the data easily and quickly with numerous other stakeholders. It’s been an important development for equine health management and collaboration in our industry.”

— Bronte Forbes

Head of Veterinary Regulation at the Hong Kong Jockey Club

“Screening my client’s horses for asymmetries that are not visible to the eye has proven valuable for discussions with my veterinary colleagues when there are signs of limited function.”

— Gillian Tabor

Chartered physiotherapist & reader in veterinary physiotherapy at Hartpury University

"I like how Sleip can pick up on the little things. What I might miss with my bare eye, Sleip can catch. It's all about knowing what's normal for each horse. When something changes, Sleip helps us detect it early. We can then have an informed chat with the owner or the vet about what to do next."

— Dewi Bergman-van Mechelen

Equine physiotherapist and chiropractor

“If you stand still, you get run over. That’s one of the things I've always said, so I'm always trying to be better. And I think Sleip has helped us do that.”

— Marc Casse

Racehorse trainer

"I use Sleip for an objective assessment of the horses I work with. It’s easy—just a smartphone, tripod, and a flat trot-up area. It's free from personal interpretation and creates a digital record of movement over time."

— Marc Jerram

Master farrier and farrier clinician

“I am a perfectionist, especially when it comes to the well-being of my horses and how we perform together. Horses can’t use words to let us know how they are feeling so we need to do everything we can to read their signals. That is how my vet and I use Sleip.”

— Henrik von Eckermann

Olympic show jumping rider, World championship gold medalist

“Sleiping my horses is a routine that allows my vet and I to stay one step ahead, it helps us pick up on potential injuries or issues before it gets serious. My horses and I are a team, and as a rider I want to do everything I can to ensure their welfare.”

— Max Kühner

Showjumping Athlete, World Cup & Championship Finalist

”I think Sleip can be pivotal for improved horse welfare. It helps me detect changes at an early stage, so I can make better decisions about training load and rest, and has significantly eased communication between me and my vet.”

— Aminda Ingulfson

Eventer, Swedish national team

"I Sleip my horses regularly, at least once a week. Before shows and directly after to ensure that everything is ok. The collaboration with the team is crucial; my veterinarian Wim Malisaert is always at hand if I register anything, and I also share with my trainer, farrier and physio to make sure everyone is on the same page. It's so easy; you just film the horse, you wait a few minutes and you see the result."

— Thibault Philippaerts

Showjumping Athlete

"You may feel that something is not 100% right, and Sleip gives you data to back you up and the documentation to discuss with the team and take action."

— Peder Fredricsson

Equestrian and Olympic medalist
