Pet-tech OEM / ODM manufacturer · Shenzhen
Pet-tech OEM/ODM manufacturer — custom development and white-label, from design to production.
A factory and R&D team in Shenzhen doing OEM and ODM for dog and cat GPS trackers and other smart pet devices — custom development or white-label under your brand: industrial design, structure, PCB, firmware, app, cloud and production. Our 4G platform includes IMU health monitoring: activity, sleep and scratch alerts from a six-axis IMU with edge AI, not just a dot on a map. Samples are available; development and sample arrangements are agreed together once we understand the project, and quantity is quoted per project. We run no consumer brand of our own, so your market stays yours.
- App and SIM plan developed with the tracker
- The owner app, cloud and SIM plan are scoped alongside the hardware, so the product works in your customer’s country on day one.
- Four-mode positioning
- GNSS, WiFi sniffing, cell LBS and BLE blended in firmware we own and tune.
- IMU health AI as standard
- Sleep scores, scratch and lick alerts, respiration — IMU-based edge algorithms across the 4G line.
- Collar to cloud, OTA included
- Structure, hardware, firmware, app and platform from one team — and every tracker keeps improving over the air after it ships.
Why this category sells
Every pet owner has imagined the worst evening of their life.
An open gate, a firework, a squirrel — and the dog is gone. One in three pets goes missing at least once in its lifetime, and around 10 million pets are lost in the US every year. Most are never reported found. Your customers are not buying a gadget; they are buying the promise of never standing in the rain calling a name into the dark.

- pets goes missing at least once in its lifetime
- 10M+
- pets lost every year in the US alone
- <23%
- of lost dogs without ID or tech are reunited
- Minutes
- is what recovery takes when a collar can be located
Two ways to scope a project
Start from an engineered platform, or build fully custom
Adapt one of our engineered platforms to your brief, or develop a tracker from a blank sheet. Both are scoped together against your market and configuration, and a platform-based project can move to a fully custom design later with the same team.
Platform-based development
A shorter development path: one of our engineered tracker platforms adapted to your design details, packaging and branded app, with a SIM plan for your market. Scoped and quoted as a development project; samples available.
See the platform-based path → Full custom developmentFully custom development
Your industrial design or ours, new tooling, firmware tuned to your battery-life claim, and a private platform with API access and data ownership. Scoped together with you before any tooling is committed.

Engineered bases for OEM/ODM projects
Reference designs we have already engineered, used as the starting point for development projects. Each is the base for an OEM/ODM or white-label project; specs pages carry the details a buyer actually tests.
The stack
The four blocks a tracker is made of
Positioning, cellular, power and structure are the four problems every pet tracker has to solve, and they have to be solved together — a duty cycle designed apart from the antenna placement fails in the field. We engineer all four in one team.
Cellular connectivity
Cat-1 · NB-IoTLTE Cat-1 and NB-IoT modules
We build on pre-certified cellular modules, which is what keeps a project out of the PTCRB lab: the module carries the radio certification, and the end device inherits most of the work. Band variants per target market — EU, North America, SEA, LATAM — are a decision made when the project is scoped, not a redesign later.

Positioning
4-modeGNSS + WiFi sniffing + LBS + BLE
GPS alone is a battery bill and an indoor blind spot. Production trackers blend four sources: GNSS outdoors, WiFi MAC sniffing in urban canyons and indoors, cell-tower LBS as the floor, and BLE to detect "the pet is home — stop burning power". The blending logic is firmware we own and tune per product.

Battery & power
Duty cycle, charging, UN 38.3
The spec a tracker is judged on is days between charges, and it is decided in the power design: modem sleep states, GPS fix strategy, motion-triggered wake. The lithium pack needs UN 38.3 before anyone air-freights it — planned at design time, not discovered at the forwarder.

Structure & sealing
IP67IP67 housings, collar mounts, antennas
A tracker lives on an animal that swims, digs and scratches. IP67 sealing that survives the charging contacts, a collar mount that holds through a fence squeeze, and antennas that still perform next to a body of water and fur — the mechanical half is where field failures actually come from.
- In-house ID/MD
- DFM-reviewed tooling
Scope of work
From the collar’s shape to the tracking server — buy the whole tracker, or just the layer you need
Some brands want a finished tracker with their name on it. Others already have an app, or a design, or a platform. Every layer below can be quoted on its own.
Industrial design
Collar and clip forms sized for dogs and cats, colourways, packaging.
Mechanical design
IP67 sealing, drop and chew resistance, charging contacts, tooling.
Hardware design
GNSS, 4G Cat-1 / NB-IoT, BLE and Wi-Fi scanning, antennas inside a tiny housing, IMU.
Embedded firmware
Low-power duty cycling, multi-mode positioning fusion, IMU health algorithms, OTA.
App & mini program
Owner apps for iOS and Android, WeChat mini programs for China, your branding.
Tracking platform
Location and health data backend, fleet console, SIM management, open API.
Typical splits: the whole tracker · hardware and firmware into your app · our app and platform on your hardware · production only.
