Introducing Kora: Complete Animal Stewardship for Everyone
What is Kora?
Kora is animal management software that works for everyone. Farmers, veterinarians, conservationists, zoo staff, and wildlife managers all use Kora to care for animals.
Unlike specialised platforms that force you into rigid workflows, Kora adapts to how you actually work.
The Problem with Specialised Software
Most animal management software serves only one industry. Dairy platforms work exclusively for milking operations. Equine systems target racing stables. Zoo software focuses on exhibit planning.
These platforms assume you fit into one category. They impose industry-specific workflows that rarely work across different contexts.
What happens when your needs cross boundaries? A farmer who also rehabilitates wildlife needs two separate systems. A veterinarian serving both cattle herds and exotic species must navigate completely different interfaces.
How Kora is Different
Kora takes a flexible approach. It never assumes you fit into a single category. It never dictates one "correct" way to care for animals.
Instead, Kora offers comprehensive tools that adapt to any setting:
- Cattle operations
- Endangered species breeding programmes
- Wildlife population management
- Zoo collections
- Mixed operations across all these domains
Managing Individual Animals and Groups
Kora solves a universal challenge: how to maintain detailed information about individual animals while efficiently managing whole populations.
Individual Animal Tracking Track individual animals with complete records:
- Full health histories
- Welfare metrics
- Breeding records
- Treatment documentation
Use individual tracking for breeding stock, high-value animals, endangered species, or clinical patients.
Group Management Manage herds, flocks, or wildlife populations as collective units:
- Total population counts
- Demographics (sex ratios, age ranges)
- Group-level health trends
Use group management when tracking thousands of individuals becomes impractical.
You can switch between these approaches as needed. Start with group management, then promote specific animals to individual tracking when they require special attention.
One Health Foundation
Kora follows the One Health principle. This means animal health, human health, and environmental health interconnect deeply.
Environmental Sustainability
Monitor environmental indicators:
- Carbon footprint
- Water consumption
- Habitat quality
- Land use efficiency
This helps you align daily operations with environmental commitments.
Responsible Antimicrobial Stewardship
Reduce antibiotic resistance by:
- Documenting clinical justifications for treatments
- Monitoring treatment outcomes
- Tracking WHO antimicrobial classifications
The system helps you use antibiotics only when medically necessary.
Genetic Management for Conservation
Professional breeding programmes benefit from:
- Complete pedigree tracking
- Inbreeding coefficient calculations
- Genetic diversity analysis
- Evidence-based breeding recommendations
This supports endangered species conservation and advanced breeding programmes.
Emergency Disease Response
When a contagious disease occurs, Kora acts immediately.
The system doesn't just store information. It helps you respond:
- Identifies exposed animals based on recent location sharing and movement history
- Calculates risk levels using disease transmission data
- Recommends quarantine duration based on incubation and infectious periods
- Suggests monitoring frequency appropriate to the disease
This transforms a stressful, error-prone process into a systematic, science-based response. You protect animals, your operation, and surrounding communities.
Lifetime Traceability
Every significant event in an animal's life receives a permanent, tamper-proof record:
- Births and deaths
- Movements between locations
- Treatments and vaccinations
- Inspections and certifications
These records can be independently verified. This supports:
- Regulatory compliance across jurisdictions
- Audit preparedness
- Access to premium markets requiring proof of welfare
- Supply chain integrity
