AniMap UK is building a modern, DEFRA‑compliant UK companion animal microchip database designed to improve pet welfare and reunite lost pets with their owners faster. Our platform will provide secure microchip registration, 24/7 pet reunification, veterinary and implanter access, lost and found reporting, advanced owner account management, and seamless integration with other UK microchip databases. We are also developing complementary products including smart QR/NFC pet tags and additional welfare‑focused services.
