About

A workbench, built in the order that lets somebody check it

EquiRay is made by Bloodstock AI Limited in Waikato, New Zealand, alongside StrideVision AI, a buyer-facing product the two share information with.

In 100 words

EquiRay is a veterinary workbench for viewing and measuring radiographs, recording structured findings, and managing horse and client records. It supports clear, consistent documentation and tracking over time. EquiRay does not diagnose, and it does not tell you what a measurement means. It is built for qualified vets and keeps you in control of your clinical decisions.

Why it exists

The unglamorous half of the job was the half nobody had built

There is plenty of interest in software that looks at an image. There was almost none in the work that happens before anybody looks at anything: opening the folder, working out what is in it, noticing the view that never arrived, and getting the client’s name off a file before it goes anywhere.

That is the work EquiRay does. It is less exciting to describe and it is the part a practice actually loses hours to.

The order

Why an unbuilt thing is worth saying out loud

Everyone else in this field has to explain how they validated a machine looking at images. We have to explain why we have not built that yet. It is the easier conversation, and it is the one we would rather have.

A finding that nobody checked is worse than no finding, because somebody will act on it. A horse marked down by a mistake is a horse somebody else buys well. A horse waved through on a conclusion that was never real is the one that costs you. So we would rather ship the parts that hold: organise the study, check the set, give you the measurement tools, and carry the veterinarian’s own words.

What will eventually earn a model its place is the findings a veterinarian recorded. That is the right order to do this in, and it is the only order that leaves anybody able to check the work.

How we write

Nothing here is a claim about the future dressed as a claim about today

Under the Fair Trading Act a representation has to have reasonable grounds at the time it is made, so “we will validate it later” is not a defence. We take that literally. The copy on this site is checked against a list of sentences this product does not get to say, and that check runs over the pages themselves rather than over a style guide nobody opens.

It is also why there is no separate page of limitations here. A qualification that lives on its own tab does not reach the reader who read the claim, so the limits sit on the pages the claims are on.

If you find a line here that contradicts what the product actually does, that is a bug and we would like to know.

Where the line sits

The strongest verdict the software will ever reach on its own is that something needs review. A veterinarian accepts, and a veterinarian decides everything after that.

EquiRay measures. It does not diagnose, and it will not tell you what a change means. A finding nobody checked is worse than no finding, because somebody will act on it. So the software organises, checks and carries, and the veterinarian judges.

Early access

We would rather build this with a handful of vets who will tell us plainly what is wrong with it

EquiRay is in development. If that is of interest, tell us what you image most and how the repository reaches you today.
