Baxta, Australia’s #1 social networking pet app, announces that it has over 25,000 users and has created more than 14,000 forms of user-generated content.
The pet industry in Australia is worth $13 billion. Baxta powered by its newly revamped ‘Discover’ feature connects and supports today’s fast-growing generation of pets, pet owners, and pet-friendly businesses. Along with a vibrant social media function, Baxta simplifies the world of pet content, expert pet advice and resources by putting them all at our users’ fingertips.
The fact is, prioritising business discovery always helps interested customers uncover and interact with a business, cultivate relationships, and grow sales and foot traffic. With pet spending rising, Baxta’s Discover feature enables businesses to connect with a growing pet community by combining MapKit and CoreLocation frameworks integrated with Apple Maps for easy viewing. The result is a rich, vibrant directory of pet-friendly destinations, businesses, and services with helpful captions and images. Geolocation features are also implemented to showcase pet-friendly venues around the user’s area so that pet parents can sort venues from the closest to the farthest away from them.
Baxta’s four-tiered business pricing approach ranges from a basic free listing to a premium option that gives businesses more visibility and higher search rankings, click-to-call, special offers and the opportunity to interact with our community.

Launched in August 2020, Baxta is a social networking platform and app that connects and supports Australia’s fast-growing generation of pet owners and pets with each other, including pet-friendly businesses and communities that serve all animals.
The opportunity

The asset class where the market has no vote
Litigation funding returns are decided in a courtroom, not a cycle. Knightsbridge’s Head of Capital is careful to call that a different risk rather than a lower one, and his answer to it is spread, not concentration. Most alternative assets still answer to something. Property answers to rates. Private credit answers to defaults. Even the […]
The listing fee vendors pay whether the house sells or not
Australia’s property portals collect more than $2 billion a year while national listings sit flat. An Australian-built AI platform is targeting the economics, not just the interface. An Australian vendor listing a home pays a vendor-paid advertising fee on top of agency commission. Rama Dwarapudi, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of RealSearch, puts a typical […]
Reinventing the Condom: How an Australian Deep-Tech Startup Plans to Disrupt a $12 Billion Market
For more than half a century, the global condom industry has remained fundamentally unchanged, constrained by standard materials like latex and solid synthetic polymers. Despite widespread consumer demand for better alternatives, product design has treated the device strictly as a mechanical barrier, sacrificing feel for function. Sydney-based Eudaemon Technologies is setting out to upend that […]
