The verdict
Why it scored a 79
Launched June 2025 and a TechCrunch best-pet-gadget pick, the Scout's standout is AI that narrates pet behavior and builds daily activity logs, which is why Features leads at 90. The catch is that those summaries and multi-pet tracking need a paid Video Cloud AI tier (about $11.99/mo or $95.99/yr after a 90-day trial), the AI confuses look-alike cats and pillows, and there is no treat dispenser or local storage. At $99.99 list and often $49.99–79.99 on sale, Warranty is the softest at 66 despite 24-month coverage.
