Dashboard, and it suits a clinic that wants a large library of client-education handouts on its site.

It suits a clinic that wants one company to run its website and its phones, with every call the site produces in view.
At a glance
The same ten questions for each. Every LifeLearn cell links to the page it comes from and gives the date it was read.
| Feature | PupPilot | LifeLearn WebDVM |
|---|---|---|
| Price | $100 a month per clinic plus $25 a month per location. $125 a month for a single-location clinic. | Prices start at $327 a month. The page doesn't say which of its five bundles that price buys, and it shows no other bundle prices (WebDVM page, read October 8, 2026). |
| Activation fee | None. | A setup fee, billed on the date of sale. No amount is published (WebDVM terms, read October 8, 2026). |
| Contract and leaving | No long-term contract required. You can leave whenever you like. | The term renews automatically, monthly or annually, unless the clinic gives LifeLearn written notice at least 30 days before the cancellation date. Monthly subscriptions can be cancelled by calling LifeLearn at least 30 days before the next billing date, and annual subscriptions are non-refundable during the term. A clinic that ends the service for convenience isn't refunded for the current billing period (WebDVM terms, last updated December 1, 2020, read October 8, 2026). |
| Who owns the domain and content | You do. Your domain stays registered to you, and PupPilot makes no claim to your content. | The domain name remains the clinic's property; LifeLearn owns the internet protocol number assigned to it and any templated website design it hosts. Text and photographs the clinic submits remain the clinic's, and LifeLearn keeps ownership of its technology, software, content and images (WebDVM terms, read October 8, 2026). |
| What you take if you leave | Your domain and your content. | Under the WebDVM terms (read October 8, 2026), the domain name and the text and photographs the clinic submitted remain the clinic's. A handover or export of the site or its design: not documented. |
| How a change gets made | You ask in a chat, in plain words. Updates are unlimited and included. | Who makes routine edits: not documented on the current WebDVM page. The WebDVM terms treat work beyond the Order Form as Supplemental Services, and LifeLearn gives the clinic the additional fees before doing that work (both read October 8, 2026). |
| SEO | Included: SEO and SEO audits. | In the Get Ahead bundle and every bundle above it (WebDVM page, read October 8, 2026). |
| AI search | Included: GEO audits, tested with the questions your callers ask. | Not documented as a WebDVM service. LifeLearn publishes a free download about websites optimized for AI discovery (download page, read October 8, 2026). |
| Phones, texting, email and fax | Yes. PupPilot is the clinic's phone system, with texting, email and fax in one inbox. | Not documented for WebDVM. LifeLearn's services page also lists AllyDVM, a client communication platform with automated reminders, and PetNurse, an after-hours telephone triage service (all services, read October 8, 2026). |
| What you can see of your calls | Every call, with its recording, transcript and summary. | Not documented in the WebDVM bundles. LifeLearn's pay-per-click ads and landing pages include tracking phone numbers, and pay-per-click advertising is in the Market Owner bundle; its Elite social media tier lists lead capture and call tracking (pay-per-click, WebDVM page, social media management, read October 8, 2026). |
LifeLearn's cells come from its own pages, read October 8, 2026, and from its WebDVM terms and conditions, last updated December 1, 2020. 'Not documented' means the LifeLearn pages we read don't describe it, not that LifeLearn lacks it. Verified October 2026. Vendors change pricing and features; tell us if something is out of date.

LifeLearn and GeniusVets
LifeLearn and GeniusVets have the same parent company. In a release dated July 26, 2021, ProSites announced that it had acquired LifeLearn Animal Health (release), and LifeLearn's release of December 17, 2025 says ProSites Inc., the parent company of LifeLearn, Inc., has acquired GeniusVets (release). GeniusVets' own landing page says it is now part of LifeLearn.
Their offers, from their own pages, read October 8, 2026:
- LifeLearn WebDVM comes in five bundles, from Get Started to Market Owner, with a starting price of $327 a month, and every bundle includes LifeLearn's client-education library.
- GeniusVets lists four packages, Elite, Pro, Growth and Starter, with no prices on its packages page. Call tracking is listed only in the Elite package. All four list "Full Website Ownership". GeniusVets' client terms (latest update listed: June 5, 2023) limit the clinic's ownership to its "single unique site with its individual configuration", convey no ownership of the underlying software, systems or content, and say its Licensed Content will not become the clinic's property. The same terms set an initial term of 12 months.
Keeping the site current
PupPilot. You ask for a change in the chat, in plain words, and PupPilot makes it. Each change also updates the details that search engines and AI assistants read, and updates are unlimited. PupPilot answers your clinic's calls, texts and emails, so it hears the questions clients keep asking. When your site doesn't answer one, PupPilot brings it to you: you give the answer and approve the change, and PupPilot updates the site.
LifeLearn. LifeLearn's ClientEd page says its handout library is updated monthly by its team of veterinarians, editorial experts and biomedical communicators, and that practices can customize the content, brand the articles and add patient-specific notes. The higher WebDVM bundles add custom content pages: two in Competitive Edge, three in Market Leader and six in Market Owner (WebDVM page). The current WebDVM page does not describe who makes routine edits to the site or how quickly. The WebDVM terms treat work beyond the Order Form as Supplemental Services, and LifeLearn gives the clinic the additional fees before that work starts. All read October 8, 2026.
The calls a website produces
PupPilot is the clinic's phone system, so it has every call your website produces, each with its recording, transcript and summary. Calling and texting are unlimited, and calls, texts, email and fax arrive in one inbox, tied to the client and their pets. The veterinary phone system page covers the line, and the veterinary shared inbox page shows the inbox.
