Planned
Up next in the queue
- Multi-Pet Adoption Discounts
Add multi-pet rules to the discount schedule so adoption fees can automatically adjust when someone adopts more than one pet, like a pair of kittens or bonded cats.
- Volunteer Pet Assignments
Assign volunteers to specific pets so teams can track who is helping with walks, care, events, transport, and other pet-specific work.
In progress
Being built now
- Public Portal for Adopters, Volunteers, and Fosters
A portal where adopters, volunteers, and fosters can complete assigned forms, update their information, and handle more of their own next steps.
- OCR Reusable Documents
Form Filler for scanned forms and uploaded documents: detect fields with OCR, save reusable templates, send forms to outside users, map answers back to the right fields, and save submissions in PawPlacer. This is nearly ready to ship.
- PetLink Transfer Flow
A smoother flow for transferring PetLink microchip registrations when pets are adopted.
- Email Blasts from Templates
Send updates, adoption outreach, and fundraising emails from saved PawPlacer templates without rebuilding the same message each time.
- Standalone Fundraising Campaign Pages
Campaign-specific donation pages with goals, progress, tribute-style context, and donor follow-up workflows beyond the public profile and wishlist donation flows already in PawPlacer.

Post and update pets on Adopt-a-Pet alongside Petfinder. This is queued up while we wait on Adopt-a-Pet approval.
- Learning Pet Match Ratings
Let teams rate match quality so the matching engine can learn from real decisions and make better recommendations over time.
