  On September 16, IDEXX announced the acquisition of CoVet, a rapidly growing provider of AI-native ambient listening and clinical workflow software for veterinary practices. CoVet’s technology turns exam room conversations into complete documentation and automated next steps, giving your team more time to focus on patients and the ability to act on deeper clinical insights.

  Effective November 1, 2026, we will conclude our AI-assisted consult beta. CoVet will become IDEXX’s native AI Scribe for Animana.

No. AI features such as the AI-assisted consult are intended to support you in your work. The AI-assisted consult only supports record keeping and does not make any clinical decisions. However, always check the AI-generated content before you use or save it.

The AI-assisted consult records the audio of a consultation in the practice. Based on this recording, AI generates a draft of SOAP notes, a suggested weight registration and a transcript of the conversation. After the consultation, you only need to check the generated information and adjust it where necessary before you save it in the patient file. The AI consultation is currently in beta. This means that there are no costs involved in using the feature at this time and that the functionality is still being further developed and improved.

The AI assistant is an in-app assistant in Animana that you can ask your questions. You  will find the AI assistant at the bottom right of Animana, where you can ask questions about topics you need help with while working in Animana. Formulate your question as clearly and specifically as possible to get the most relevant answer.

Please note that answers generated by AI may contain errors. Always check important information before you use it.
