Setupwise · For crates, kennels, habitats and equipment
An AI adviser on the Pet Business Lab platform
The right setup, the right size, the first time.
Setupwise asks about the pet and the space, then gives every customer a clear plan: what to buy first, which size fits, and what comes next. Fewer returns, bigger orders.
Big products lose sales to small doubts
Shoppers buying big pet products have two questions: which size is right for my pet, and what else will I need? When your site can't answer, they leave or buy the wrong thing and send it back.
Wrong size
A crate or kennel that doesn't fit the pet, or the room, comes back as a return.
Overwhelm
New owners don't know what to buy first, so they buy nothing, or buy elsewhere.
Small orders
Without a plan, customers buy one item instead of the full setup they actually need.

Selling to salons, clinics and daycares?
Professional buyers ask the same questions with more at stake: what equipment do we need, which size fits our room, and in what order? Setupwise builds a setup plan for a new salon, clinic or daycare, and AR shows each piece in their actual space.
- Grooming tables, tubs and dryers
- Exam, lift and treatment tables, rehab equipment
- Daycare play structures and agility equipment
- Kennels and runs
