GroomerRisk Intake & Policy Suite
A lightweight SaaS for grooming salons to standardize safety intake, behavior flagging, and enforceable service policies for high-risk dogs (large/immobile/aggressive). It creates a shared record across staff, triggers required staffing/equipment rules, and generates client-facing estimates/waivers for extra handling time or refusal-of-service scenarios.
Target customer
Small-to-mid sized dog grooming salons (5-30 staff) and mobile groomers who handle high-volume appointments and need consistent safety policies.
Problem-solution fit
Salons need a defensible, repeatable way to identify high-risk dogs before the appointment, prevent injuries, and set expectations/pricing with owners. The product reduces surprise at check-in, ensures two-person handling rules are followed, and provides documentation to support upcharges or declining service—directly addressing pain, staffing disruption, and difficult client interactions.
