Say Hello to Jasper


Every time someone gets a pet, they sign up for outliving them.

In the US alone...

And no one is building for the one moment every pet parent will face.


A $152B Industry With a Critical Blindspot.

Jasper is creating the first modern ecosystem for grief care, built for how people actually live and heal today.

End-of-life and memorial spending is fragmented, transactional, and not focused on ongoing emotional care.

Where the $152B Pet Industry Spends Today







What We've Learned.

Modern grief support doesn't exist, and people are paying the price.

  1. Outdated, fragmented, and static
  2. Generic, dismissive, ineffective
  3. Disorganized, self-guided experiences
  4. No trusted leader

People deserve modern, scalable, safe grief support that’s human at it’s core.




What We Built: Our Beta

Over the past year, we ran a full beta to validate Jasper’s foundation. We tested the core components grief support truly needs.

Community

The heart of Jasper.


Experts

Personalized, human guidance.

Content

Tools that evolve with your grief.



Personalized AI

Smart support that gets you.



High engagement. Organic growth.



Hi, I'm Britta.

Founder & CEO

Brand Builder, Jasper's Mom


I lost my dog Jasper in 2024 after 15 years together, and the experience showed me something unmistakable: grief support is profoundly outdated and inaccessible. Helping a friend navigate suicide loss the year before confirmed it — there is no modern path to care.

I’ve spent my career scaling consumer products at Uber and multiple VC-backed startups, building brands, communities, and category-defining experiences. I know how to build trust at scale — and grief is the category that needs it most.


Jasper is the platform I needed and the one millions of others do too. We start with pet loss, but the opportunity spans the full landscape of human grief.

Building brand loyalty for pet care’s most trusted brands

When a pet passes away, owners cancel everything. Food subscriptions, supplements, insurance, supplies. This is the single biggest churn moment in the pet-care industry.

Jasper turns the hardest moment into the most powerful loyalty driver.

Example target partners





The Bigger Future.

If Jasper becomes the emotional wellness layer for pet owners, we can scale a membership base similar to other trust-driven consumer platforms.

Jasper can follow the same arc, a trust-first wedge that grows into a category-defining emotional wellness platform.



Pet loss is our wedge. The full grief market is the opportunity.

A multi-billion dollar market hidden in plain sight.

We begin with pet loss, then expand into the entire grief ecosystem where no modern leader exists. With a total addressable market (TAM) of over $3 billion, Jasper is the first platform designed to create a single, trusted destination.
