VDI LabOS · WHL
Authority, care-network and commercial model

VDI LabOS becomes the laboratory bridge inside an owner-approved pet care network.

This is not a directory and not a transfer of laboratory authority into a consumer app. VDI LabOS remains the laboratory environment and source of laboratory truth. Pets Plug maintains the Pet Passport, owner permissions and each pet’s private provider relationships.

Section 1

The intrinsic network model

Strategic proposition

VDI LabOS is designed to be network-compatible. Under a signed partnership, VDI becomes a verified diagnostic institution. Each owner-approved laboratory relationship can become part of the pet’s private care graph. Minimum approved case events may update the Passport so the owner, veterinarian, laboratory and other approved providers remain connected around the pet.

  • VDI LabOS is network-compatible
  • VDI becomes a verified network institution under agreement
  • The owner approves the laboratory relationship and sharing purpose
  • The veterinarian and VDI authorize the specific information
  • Approved case events update the Passport
  • Professional and laboratory authority remain unchanged
Section 2

Werner Harmonic Labs

Owns the reusable LabOS platform, governed workflow and integration framework, builds the VDI deployment, and remains responsible for implementation quality. WHL does not assume laboratory or veterinary authority.

Section 3

VDI Laboratory

Laboratory authority

Retains methods, quality, specimen acceptance, laboratory data, proprietary algorithms, interpretation, report release and internal operational records.

Section 4

Pets Plug

Maintains pet identity, owner permissions, care navigation and provider relationships. It receives only the minimum information approved for the particular owner-facing purpose. It never edits raw results, overrides QC, approves interpretation or releases reports.

Section 5

What may cross into the Passport

Only minimum approved continuity events, such as case initiated, specimen received, testing in progress, report available through the veterinarian, a veterinarian-approved summary, an approved monitoring date or an authorized report link.

  • Raw analyzer output stays inside VDI
  • QC and internal exception records stay inside VDI
  • Proprietary methods and algorithms stay inside VDI
  • Unreleased interpretations and internal staff notes stay inside VDI
Section 6

Veterinary clinic acquisition path

VDI relationships, outreach, training and events can bring veterinary practices into Pets Plug. Pets Plug provides a useful free network presence, helps owners locate participating collection providers, and creates a clean path for veterinarian-authorized work to reach VDI.

  • VDI relationship or outreach
  • Free claimable verified clinic profile
  • Approved VDI relationship and collection capabilities
  • Owner finds a participating clinic or collection location
  • Veterinarian evaluates the patient and authorizes appropriate testing
  • Clinic submits work to VDI
  • Approved continuity events may return to the Passport
Section 7

Free clinic profile and VDI connection

Free network layer

A participating clinic can receive a claimable verified profile, locations, contact information, collection capabilities, VDI-connected or trained status, approved VDI service categories, collection-discovery visibility and a basic referral or handoff path.

Section 8

Paid monthly clinic access

Commercial proposal

A clinic pays when it wants Pets Plug to become part of its own customer relationship and workflow—not merely to appear in a directory.

  • Connect clinic customers and their Pet Passports
  • Owner-authorized care inbox and case-ready intake
  • Digital handoffs, communications and reminders
  • Report and follow-up continuity
  • Clinic-branded engagement
  • Analytics, retention and network tools
Section 9

Smoochie Pooch proposal

PROPOSED

Smoochie Pooch has not agreed to participate. WHL built the pitch, operating concept, specifications and synthetic demonstrations for a proposed multi-location partnership covering loyalty, rewards, earlier-opening recovery, Pet Passport enrollment, visit history, owner-controlled Care Handoff and objective non-diagnostic Care Signals.

Section 10

How Smoochie could strengthen the network

A participating Smoochie location could recommend a verified participating veterinarian or collection clinic and identify VDI as a preferred specialty laboratory for agreed test categories. A groomer may document only a factual observation selected by the owner for sharing. The veterinarian evaluates the pet and determines whether testing is appropriate.

  • Groomer records an objective observation
  • Owner chooses whether and where to share it
  • Pets Plug recommends a participating veterinarian or collection clinic
  • Veterinarian evaluates and authorizes any diagnostic request
  • Clinic submits appropriate work to VDI
  • Approved case events return to the Passport

Section 11

Authority never collapses into one platform

The owner controls sharing and relationships. The veterinarian controls clinical evaluation and testing decisions. VDI controls laboratory processing, methods, review and report release. Smoochie or another groomer may observe and recommend a network provider but cannot diagnose or order testing. Pets Plug coordinates identity, permissions and continuity. WHL builds the governed software architecture.
