Automated DairyComp Herd Health Digests

Every night, WebRun opens DairyComp 305, pulls every health event logged that day across the herd, from mastitis and lameness to ketosis and displaced abomasum, logs each to a tracking sheet, and posts your management team a Slack digest grouped by pen and condition.

In short

How do I track every herd health event logged in a day?

WebRun opens DairyComp 305 every night and pulls every health event your team logged that day, from mastitis and lameness to ketosis and displaced abomasum. It logs each to a tracking sheet, flags repeat cases from the past week, and posts your management team a Slack digest grouped by condition and pen, so nothing gets missed at tomorrow's check.

  • Every logged health event reaches management the same night instead of getting buried
  • Repeat cases surface automatically instead of blending into a long list
  • A pen with a sudden cluster of cases stands out immediately

Questions, answered

Does WebRun diagnose the cow or start treatment?

No. WebRun only compiles what your team already logged in DairyComp 305 into one digest. Diagnosis and treatment decisions stay with you and your vet.

How does it catch a repeat case?

It checks whether the same cow has more than one health event logged in the past 7 days and flags her, so a cow with a lingering issue doesn't blend into a long list.

What if a pen has a sudden cluster of cases?

The digest counts events by pen, so a pen with several new cases in one night stands out at the top instead of being buried in a cow-by-cow list.

Put this on autopilot.
