Question 1

Can I move to another system later?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We believe you should choose Oden because it's better — not because you're locked in. Export your data any time in standard formats (CSV, JSON). We'll even help you format it for migration if you decide to leave.

Question 2

What happens if I cancel?

Accepted Answer

You get a 30-day window to export your data. After that, your data is permanently deleted from our production systems and backups. No retention, no fine print, no lock-in.

Question 3

Who owns my data — me or Oden?

Accepted Answer

You do. Always. Your dogs, owners, session notes, and history belong to you. We're the custodian, not the owner. You can export everything as CSV or JSON at any time, and you can delete your account and all associated data whenever you choose.

Question 4

I'm already using spreadsheets and a calendar. How hard is migration?

Accepted Answer

Most professionals are up and running in under an hour. You can import existing dogs and owners via a simple CSV, and our team will help with migration if you're moving from another system. We never lock your data — you can export it any time.

Question 5

Do I need to be technical to set this up?

Accepted Answer

No. Oden was designed for pet professionals, not engineers. If you can use a calendar app, you can use Oden. And we'll personally walk you through the first setup on a call if you'd like.

Question 6

Can I try it before committing?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We offer a guided walkthrough on a 30-minute call where we set up Oden for your specific business. After that, you can use it for as long as you need to decide. No credit card required to start.

Question 7

Will my price go up?

Accepted Answer

If you're one of our first 10 customers, no — you pay nothing, and that doesn't change. Everyone else pays the same flat $49.99/month, with no special early-adopter rate and no surprise increases either way.

Question 8

Is there a free plan?

Accepted Answer

Not an ongoing free plan, but our first 10 customers pay nothing — no monthly charge, for as long as they stay a customer. Everyone after that pays a flat $49.99/month.

Question 9

Are there per-dog or per-owner fees?

Accepted Answer

No. Pricing is per seat, not per dog or per owner. You won't get a surprise bill because your business grew.

Question 10

Does Oden replace my calendar and messaging apps?

Accepted Answer

That's the goal. Oden includes a smart calendar, automated reminders (email + SMS), owner communication through a branded portal, and waiver signing. Most professionals replace 3–5 separate tools with Oden.

Question 11

Is Oden built for veterinarians or groomers?

Accepted Answer

Not yet. Oden is built first for canine behaviorists and dog trainers. We'll expand to other pet businesses in the future — but only when we can serve them as well as we serve trainers.

Question 12

How is my data secured?

Accepted Answer

All data is encrypted in transit and at rest using industry-standard encryption. We run on a secure cloud platform with automated backups. Access to production data is strictly limited to authorized engineers and fully audit-logged.

Question 13

Where is my data stored?

Accepted Answer

Data is stored on secure cloud infrastructure with daily automated backups. We never sell your data, and we never share it with third parties for marketing. You can export or delete your data at any time.

Question 14

Will you actually fix things if something breaks?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We're a small team building one product. When something breaks, we fix it fast and tell you what happened. You're not a ticket number to us.

Question 15

What does support look like?

Accepted Answer

Every plan includes email support from people who understand pet businesses — not a generic help desk. Founding Members get priority response.

Question 16

Do you offer training for my team?

Accepted Answer

Yes — optional live training sessions and a growing library of short video tutorials inside the product, available on every plan.

Question 17

How long does it take to learn Oden?

Accepted Answer

Most professionals are comfortable in Oden within the first session. The interface is intentionally simple — it works the way you already think about your work: dogs, owners, sessions, plans, invoices.
