Companion: Funding, Investors & Team (Aug 2026)

Companion uses advanced technology to streamline the interaction and training between owners and their dogs. Specifically, the company's unique technology communicates with dogs via sound while 3D sensing systems analyze their actions and movements. By utilizing machine learning, it can quickly adjust and calculate the most effective way to engage with a dog. Companion motivates the dog to exhibit positive behaviors like sitting, lying down, remaining in a certain location, and returning through constructive reinforcement techniques and tailor-made algorithms.

About FundedIQ's Companion Funding Data

FundedIQ tracks announced funding rounds and refreshes this profile every week. Round dates, stages and amounts are normalised to a single format, converted to US dollars, and de-duplicated: two records of the same round announced days apart are merged, and two genuinely different rounds are kept apart on the amounts they disclose. Amounts shown are the disclosed figures only — a round announced without a number is listed and excluded from the total rather than estimated.

Employee counts are reported bands, not exact headcounts. Founder and executive names carry the job title on record. Anything we do not hold for Companion is left off this page rather than filled in.
