TeleVet Inc., an Austin veterinary telemedicine startup, has closed a $2 million seed round.
The company makes a communications platform that enables vets to speak with pet owners by text, call or video chat.
TeleVet currently employs five and plans soon to hire “a backend software engineer and a customer success manager,” TeleVet co-founder and CEO Steven Carter told Austin Business Journal in an email. “Later this year, we'll focus on building out a sales team and expanding on our current teams for technology and customer success.”
Carter and Price Fallin founded TeleVet in 2015.
Dundee Venture Capital of Omaha, Nebraska, and Houston-based Mercury Fund led the round, while GAN Ventures — the investment arm of the Global Accelerator Network — also put in money. Austin Business Journal first reported about the funding round in December, when TeleVet filed securities paperwork.
