# xPETPHOTOx

> xPETPHOTOx is the pet photography operating system on the Biz Dev App: a
> complete business workspace — not a scheduling app and not a CRM —
> scaffolded with 15 modules, 5 record types and 4 named workflows that a
> pet photography business actually runs on. Work is priced on session fee
> plus a print and product order, with digital files priced as an upgrade.

## What it is for
A short session, a fast gallery, and a print order before the excitement
fades.

The buyer is an owner or operator of a pet photography business who is
currently running the work across a calendar, a phone, a notebook and a
separate invoicing tool. xPETPHOTOx replaces that with one record per customer
and one record per job, carried from intake through pricing, dispatch, proof
of work, invoice and settlement.

## Category
Pet & Animal — The customer is not the patient. Every record is medical-adjacent and every
visit is emotional.

## What the platform assesses
Location scouting from light and background analysis, and automatic culling of
the frames where the eyes are sharp.

The assessment never sets prices. Quantities come from what was measured or
counted; rates come from the operator's own book. That is what makes two
people pricing the same job land on the same number.

## How work is priced
session fee plus a print and product order, with digital files priced as an
upgrade

## Frequently asked
### Is xPETPHOTOx a separate product from the Biz Dev App?
No. xPETPHOTOx is the pet photography configuration of the Biz Dev App — the
same platform, the same ledger, the same support, scaffolded with the 15
modules and 5 record types this trade actually uses. If the business later
adds a second line of work, it does not mean a second subscription; it means
another vertical switched on in the same workspace.

### How does xPETPHOTOx price a job?
On session fee plus a print and product order, with digital files priced as an
upgrade. The basis lives in the workspace rather than in an estimator's head,
so the same job quoted by two people produces the same number. Your own rates,
your own catalogue — the platform supplies the structure and the arithmetic,
never the prices.

### What does it connect to that we already use?
Print labs, Stripe, Instagram and Facebook, Cloud gallery delivery are wired
first, because those are what a pet photography business is usually already
running. Anything else goes through the xCONNECTx public API catalogue rather
than a custom build.

### What happens to the data we already have?
It comes in. The archive import pipeline takes historical customers, jobs and
invoices and lands them as real records — searchable, reportable, attached to
the right customer — rather than as a folder of PDFs nobody opens. The point
of moving is to keep the last five years, not to start over.

## Built on Biz Dev App
xPETPHOTOx is one of 74 service verticals on the Biz Dev App — the operating
system for the AI economy. The leading and trailing x are platform brackets:
Cross-Connect Protocol in, Cross-Connect Protocol out. Every vertical shares
one identity, one ledger (XODIAK) and one settlement rail, so a business that
runs two lines of work runs them in one workspace rather than two
subscriptions.
