Overview
- Anyone in the United States, including non-Ring owners, can now post a missing-dog alert in the Ring/Neighbors app to launch a Search Party.
- Participating outdoor Ring cameras use AI-powered computer vision to look for dogs resembling the posted photo and alert camera owners to possible matches.
- Sharing is voluntary, with camera owners choosing case by case whether to share clips or ignore alerts, and with opt-out controls for specific cameras or the feature entirely.
- Ring reports the feature has helped reunite more than one lost dog per day since its launch last fall.
- The expansion is being promoted with Ring’s first Super Bowl LX commercial, and the company is committing $1 million to outfit roughly 4,000 animal shelters in partnership with Petco Love and Best Friends Animal Society.
