How Haku works

Press play.
Meet your cat.

No hardware, no training, no treats required. Just your phone, your cat, and a sound they can't ignore.

01

Pick your trigger.

Fifty-five studio-grade sounds across seven categories - birds at the window, a mouse in the wall, another cat, a human going pspsps. Every play is subtly varied so your cat never learns to ignore it. Long-press favourites onto your own shelf.

  • Birds, Prey, Cats, Play, Home, Odd and Human
  • Micro-varied playback fights habituation
  • My Favs: star your cat's greatest hits

Film the reaction.

Open the Studio and the camera is already framing your cat. Tap record, fire the sound - the chip lights up gold the instant it plays - and catch the exact moment the ears swivel, the eyes go wide, and dignity leaves the building.

  • Sound and camera in one screen
  • The lit chip shows exactly when the sound fired
  • Keep filming - the best reactions have a second act

Save it. Post it.

One tap renders your clip in crisp vertical HD with the Haku chrome - the sound that did it and the moment it fired, burned right in. Straight to your camera roll, ready for TikTok, Reels, or the family group chat.

  • 1080p vertical export, share-ready
  • A score card image for stories, too
  • Streaks for every day you catch a reaction

Translate the conversation.

Record a meow and Haku reads its length, loudness and attitude to tell you what your cat is getting at. Then answer back: type what you want to say and Haku speaks real cat - actual feline recordings, chosen to match your message.

  • Cat → you: every meow, decoded in plain English
  • You → cat: real recordings, not robot beeps
  • Readings saved to your cat's profile

And when something seems off.

Haku's original wellness engine ships inside, tucked behind the My Cat tab: film six seconds and get a Feline Grimace Scale-informed pain read, stress signals, and an AI vet that knows your cat's history. There for the day you need it.

  • Wellness scans with a pain score out of 10
  • AI vet grounded in your cat's actual readings
  • Trends over time, exportable for your real vet

Why the sounds work

Engineered for cat ears.

Cats hear up to 64 kHz - nearly three octaves past us - and their attention is tuned to specific patterns: prey squeaks, wing flutter, rival calls. Haku's library is built around what actually flips those switches.

Studio recordings

Real captures and studio foley - no tinny ringtone loops.

Anti-habituation playback

Pitch and timing micro-vary on every play, so the tenth bark still lands like the first.

Prey-frequency tuning

Squeaks and rustles sit in the range wired to a cat's hunting instinct.

Category science

Territorial calls, prey sounds and social cues each trigger a different reaction style.

Acoustic meow reading

The translator measures real acoustic features - length, energy, contour - not random lines.

Kind by design

Sounds are startling, not distressing - and the app nudges you to know your cat's limits.

Your videos stay yours.

Reaction clips live on your phone and go only where you post them. Wellness clips are analyzed and discarded - never stored on our servers.
