File a claim
in 30 seconds.

Snap your vet bill. Pawback reads every line, fills your insurer’s exact claim form, and files it where your insurer accepts email — or hands you a one-tap submit for the rest. Then it tracks every dollar you’re owed.

Free first claim, no card required. Pawback Pro from $6.99/mo.

The 30-second claim

Snap. Review. File.

Three steps between “vet visit” and “reimbursement in progress.” No portal hunting, no manual form-filling, no fax.

1

Snap the vet bill

Open the camera. Pawback reads every line — diagnosis codes, SOAP notes, procedure totals, clinic name, visit date — and lights up each field as it extracts. Most bills done in under 5 seconds.

2

Review the auto-fill

Every extracted field is shown on screen, editable before you submit. Correct anything the AI missed, add a supporting note, and tap File. You're always in control of what goes to your insurer.

3

Watch the money move

Pawback emails the completed claim packet (PDF + receipt image) directly to your insurer where email is accepted, or deep-links you to submit on others. Then it tracks status — Filed, In Review, Paid, or Denied.

How filing actually works

Honest about what we do

We’re not magic — we’re process. Here’s exactly what happens after you tap File.

Fully automatic

Email-filing (automatic)

For insurers that accept claim packets by email, Pawback assembles the PDF and sends it on your behalf — you get a confirmation and a copy.

One-tap submit

Portal hand-off (one tap)

For insurers that require their own portal, Pawback pre-fills everything it can and deep-links you directly to the submission page with your packet ready to attach. No hunting, one tap.

We never claim to auto-submit to every insurer invisibly. Insurers vary — Pawback does as much as technically possible for each one, and is always transparent about which method it’s using.

The permanent record

The Vault

Every bill you snap, every claim you file, every payout you receive — all of it organized automatically into a permanent pet medical and money record that gets more valuable the longer you use it.

Full medical timeline

Every diagnosis code and procedure automatically assembled from your bills — your vet's entire picture in one place.

Reimbursement dashboard

Total recovered, claim approval rate, average payout time, and per-insurer breakdown. The number that makes the subscription obvious.

Per-pet claim history

Every claim, every status update, with the original bill image attached. Your insurer's version of events vs yours.

Year-end export

One CSV or PDF of the year's claims — ready for your CPA, HSA request, or a new insurer's pre-existing conditions review.

Private by design

The Vault lives on your device. You can optionally back up and restore it through your own iCloud Drive. We don't hold your pet's medical data on our servers.

Every pet, one place

Multiple pets, multiple insurers, all in one app. The dashboard rolls up across all of them or breaks down by pet.

Privacy

Your vet bills are sensitive. We treat them that way.

Bills processed, not stored

Your bill image is sent to our OCR proxy to extract the text fields — and deleted immediately after. We never store your bill images on our servers. Anthropic's API does not retain images past the request.

Claim data lives on your device

Your pet records, insurer details, and claim history are stored locally on your iPhone. You can optionally back up and restore them through your own iCloud Drive via the Files app. Not our servers.

No ads, no data selling

We run anonymous product analytics (PostHog) and crash diagnostics (Sentry) to keep the app working. We don't sell data, run ad trackers, or share anything with insurers beyond what you file.

Subscriptions through Apple

If you go Pro, Apple handles the billing via RevenueCat. We see 'is Pro?' — not your card or billing address.

Common questions

FAQs

Which pet insurers does Pawback work with?

Any insurer that accepts a claim form or PDF upload — Trupanion, Lemonade, Healthy Paws, ASPCA, MetLife, Embrace, Fetch, Pets Best, Spot, Figo, Nationwide, and others. Pawback generates a pre-filled packet for each one; we don’t require a direct API partnership with your insurer.

Does Pawback actually submit the claim, or just fill the form?

Both — depending on your insurer. For carriers that accept claim packets by email, Pawback emails the packet for you. For carriers that require their own portal, it pre-fills everything it can and deep-links you directly to submit. We’re always transparent about which method your insurer uses.

Is my pet's medical data stored on a server?

No. Your bills, extracted claim data, and claim history live on your device. You can optionally back up and restore a copy through your own iCloud Drive. Vet records are sensitive; we architected around not holding them.

What does the free tier actually include?

One full claim — snap, AI fill, file, track status. That’s enough to recover money before you’ve paid us anything. After that, Pro unlocks unlimited claims, the Vault, and reimbursement dashboard.

What if Pawback can't read my bill?

Every field on the review screen is editable — you can type any line item manually and the rest of the submission flow works identically. The AI saves you typing; it never blocks you from filing. Send us a photo of any invoice that consistently fails and we’ll tune the extraction.
