• Friendr can increase shelter adoption rates from 25-45%.
• The three largest shelters in Houston provide zero behavior data on their adoptables yet we know behavior is the single most important factor in determining adoption success.
• For BARC, the COH shelter, that could mean an additional 1,325 adoptions a year and based on unit (per animal) cost of $1005 in the $15.2M budget, a potential savings of $1,331, 625 is possible if matches are made and retained.
• Friendr creates a unifying language of behavior attributes and adopter interface that will allow adopters from any shelter that uses it to have access to accurate and predictive information about the animals.
