Objective
Objective Develop an all-in-one platform to support kennel clubs and breeders in enhancing genetic diversity and health management through informed breeding decisions.
Challenges
Data Fragmentation
Existing genetic data was scattered across various systems, making comprehensive assessment difficult and slowing down the entire breeding evaluation process.
Genetic Diversity Loss
Selective breeding practices had resulted in a significant loss of genetic diversity, increasing the prevalence of genetic defects and hereditary diseases across breeds.
Solutions
All-in-One Genetic Data Platform
We developed MyFeragen — a centralized multi-application SaaS platform to manage and access genetic data, health records, and breeding information, simplifying data management and enhancing accessibility across the board.
Breeder Management Tools
Implemented advanced mating tools to streamline breeding management, enabling breeders to assess and select optimal breeding pairs based on detailed genetic profiles.
Comprehensive Genetic Screening
Integrated Dog Check to screen up to 220 breed-specific and common diseases through DNA testing, providing breeders and kennel clubs with essential health insights at every decision point.
Intuitive User Experience
Developed a user-friendly digital interface that decodes complex genetic data into clear, actionable visualizations — empowering breeders with the insights they need, without requiring scientific expertise to interpret them.
Results
220
genetic diseases screened per animal through DogCheck
100%
digital transformation of Feragen's customer journey
4
core modules unified in a single platform
Reduction in Hereditary Diseases
With DogCheck screening up to 220 breed-specific and common diseases, breeders now make informed pairing decisions based on real genetic profiles — not guesswork. The result: a measurable reduction in hereditary disease prevalence across participating breeds.
Global Impact
MyFeragen is now an active tool for kennel clubs worldwide, enabling international genetic data sharing at scale — promoting healthier breeding practices and greater genetic diversity across the global dog breeding community.
Enhanced Operational Efficiency
By consolidating fragmented genetic data, health records, and breeding information into a single platform, MyFeragen eliminated the manual overhead that previously slowed Feragen's operations — freeing their team to refocus on core scientific work rather than data management.
Soprex effectively digitized our service, enhancing our user experience and allowing us to refocus resources towards our primary scientific pursuits. They have consistently exceeded our expectations and contributed significantly to our digital growth.
