"Ring is opening its Search Party pet finder service to non-Ring owners through the free Ring Neighbors app. The service has helped reunite owners with "more than one lost dog a day" since launch, according to the company. Anyone in the US can share a photo of their missing pet after they download and register in the app. If a neighbor's AI-enabled Ring camera detects the lost animal, they'll be able to alert the pet's owner."

The company launched its Search Party feature in September and, despite some misgivings about it being enabled by default (and concerns around privacy and relationships with law enforcement), the company is taking a victory lap with a Super Bowl commercial."
