Accurate heat detection – Receive precise alerts on heat intensity and ideal AI timing windows, helping you inseminate at the optimal time. Quickly identify silent heats, irregular or non-cycling cows, and reduce missed breeding opportunities, improving conception rates and reducing time to pregnancy.
