Strategic partnerships
Work across many shelters, on records they already keep.
For national organizations, foundations, retailers and software teams that support shelters and rescues. WhiskerMatch is founder-led and in early access: there is no partnership today, and none is implied anywhere on this site. This page says what exists to build on and what a first conversation could cover.
Built today, with its status stated.
- Live
One record per animal, owned by the organization
Intake, care, foster, application and outcome history on one record. Every operational dataset exports as CSV whenever the organization wants it.

Reviewed public adoption pages
Each organization publishes profiles a person approved, with the record behind every sentence. Applications from those pages go straight into that organization's own queue.
See it - Built, holds no records until a source key is configured
Listings from approved sources
An index of adoptable dogs and cats from RescueGroups.org, one record per animal, always linking to the organization's own listing.

Donations to the organization
Gifts through Stripe Connect, with the organization as merchant of record and no WhiskerMatch fee.
- Live (MCP off)
Documented public endpoints
Health, readiness, version and aggregate adoption counts are described in an OpenAPI file. A per-organization MCP endpoint exists and is off by default.
The organization owns its records. Partners never see applicants.
Each organization sees only its own records, and an application goes only to the organization it was made to. WhiskerMatch does not sell or rent organization, applicant, adopter, foster or animal data. Precise community-cat colony locations stay with the people who trap. Any partner work would sit inside those lines, with each organization deciding what it shares.
Topics to explore, not programs that exist.
Pricing stays $20/month per organization, with no seat fees. Anything beyond that is a direct conversation with the founder.
Shelters you already support
Helping organizations you fund or supply run intake, fosters and applications on one record, at the same $20/month per organization.
Helping adopters find animals
Bringing reviewed profiles to more people, always on the listing organization's terms and linking back to it.
Supply needs
Organizations already publish the supplies they choose to ask for, with whether they are running low. Who could meet those needs, and how.
Operational research
Questions about length of stay, foster capacity or application flow, studied with each organization's explicit consent and nobody's personal data.
