SEEBOOP VS FURBO
Furbo 360° is a genuinely good treat-tossing camera. It's also a $210 box plus a monthly bill. SeeBoop skips the box — the phone in your drawer already has a better camera than most dedicated pet cams — and the live-watching core is free.
THE REAL COST
Hardware plus the subscription it takes to unlock full alerts and history.
| Hardware | Recurring | 3-year total | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Furbo 360° | ~$210 | ~$84/yr (Furbo Nanny) | ~$460 |
| SeeBoop Free | $0 — your existing phone | $0 | $0 |
| SeeBoop Founders Lifetime | $0 — your existing phone | $0 — one-time | $39.99, ever |

HONESTLY
We'll never toss a treat from software. If any of these three things is what you actually want, Furbo is the right buy.
TREAT LAUNCHER
Furbo can fire a treat across the room on command. That's a mechanical feature — no phone app will ever replicate it. SeeBoop's answer is a moving on-screen toy and calming audio, not a treat.
360° MOTORIZED TRACKING
Furbo's motor physically pans and tilts to keep your dog in frame. A propped-up phone is fixed — you point it once and that's the shot.
TRUE IR NIGHT VISION
Furbo has real IR hardware for pitch-black rooms. SeeBoop's Night Enhance boosts what a phone camera can see, plus a torch toggle — honest low-light help, not infrared.
