About
VEA is a comprehensive AI-powered assistant built specifically for veterinary practices. Rather than just a scribing tool, VEA serves as a full exam room partner—capturing patient details via hands-free voice dictation, instantly generating accurate SOAP notes, and delivering data-driven treatment plans tailored to each patient.
