A field guide to the animals you already know
Your pet has opinions. We just write them down.
Point your camera at any animal and tap once. Peeka reads the scene — the ears, the tail, the whole performance — and gives you their take.
How it works
Point. Tap. They speak.
01
Point
Find someone with a heartbeat and hold steady. Wildlife counts. So does next door’s cat.
02
Tap
One tap. That’s the whole interface — no settings, no modes, no sign-up between you and the answer.
03
They speak
Two or three sentences in their voice, about what’s actually going on in the frame.
While you wait
It shows its working.
“Ears forward. Tail wrapped around the feet. Sitting squarely on the laundry that was warm five minutes ago…”
That’s not a loading spinner with a script. While Peeka reads your photo, its actual observations stream in as it makes them — ears, tail, posture, scene. The wait is the model looking, and you get to watch it notice things.
The library
From the windowsill to the back paddock.
Around the house
Cats
“Masters of strategic silence and the loaded stare.”
On the farm
Chicken
“Has one plan: to be somewhere else, immediately.”
Australia
Kookaburra
“Quietly judging your gardening from a great height.”
North America
Red Fox
“Knows exactly what it did. Intends to do it again.”
100 species in the Library — and Peeka will have a go at anything with a heartbeat. Meet one in real life and its tile unlocks with your photo.
What’s in the app
A field guide that fills itself in.
01Every peek, kept
Your last twenty reads live on your phone — the photo, the line, who said it. Nothing leaves your device.
02100 tiles to fill
The Library runs from the windowsill to six continents of back paddock. Meet a species in real life and its tile unlocks — with your photo and what they said. Keep meeting new ones and you’ll start earning badges for it. See the 100 →
03Name them once
Peeka remembers your animals. What it noticed about them last time shapes what they say next — ten minutes later they pick up mid-thought, three months later it’s a reunion. Your cat stays your cat, not a random cat.
04Their whole record
Open a named animal and every line they’ve said since you named them is there, newest first, with the date on each. Free reads back 6 lines, Plus 32, Pro 84 — and the lines stay on your phone either way, so the rest is waiting, not gone.
05The line, on the photo
One tap turns a good read into a share card — their words over your picture, ready for the group chat.
06In your language
Peeka replies in whatever language your phone already speaks — detected automatically, nothing to set. And it’s a real translation of the voice, not a word swap: French gets the joke.
07Or have it read to you
Under any paid peek there’s a Read aloud button — your phone’s own voice, in the language it’s already set to. Only when you tap it, never on its own, and handy when your hands are full of dog.
Simple pricing
Free to start. Cheap to keep.
Three peeks a day never needs an account. Make one and the first 10 are already yours. Upgrade only when you want more daily peeks, no watermark, and Peeka’s closest read.

Bought peeks are read closer, too — the same eye Plus gets, with no plan.

Questions
Asked, answered.
What is Peeka?
Peeka is a web app that looks at a photo of an animal and says what they’re probably thinking — two or three sentences, in their voice. Point your camera at an animal, tap once, and read what comes back.
How does it work?
Your photo is read by a vision model, which studies the visible evidence — ears, tail, posture, what’s happening in the frame — and writes the animal’s side of the story from it. While it reads, its actual observations stream onto the screen, so the wait is the model looking, not a spinner.
Does it really know what my cat is thinking?
No — nobody knows that, which is rather the point of cats. Peeka reads real body language and real context, then writes an honest, plausible interpretation for entertainment. The observations are genuine; the inner monologue is educated fiction.
Which animals does it work on?
Anything with a heartbeat in the frame. The Library tracks 100 species — pets, farm animals, and wildlife from Australia, North America, Europe, Asia, Africa, and South America — and Peeka will still have a go at animals outside it.
Can Peeka tell me what breed my dog is?
Yes, when the photo shows enough to tell — Peeka names the breed as well as the species, on every plan. It reads the shape it can actually see: a sighthound's legs and deep chest, a flat face, a distinctive coat. If your dog is curled up asleep, the shape a breed is read from is hidden, so Peeka gives you the build and the coat and names no breed rather than guessing. It won't call something a mixed breed to avoid admitting that either. On Plus and Pro the breed also shapes how the animal sounds, without the reading ever naming it.
Can I see everything my pet has said?
Yes — name an animal and Peeka keeps a running record of every line they’ve said from that point on, newest first, with the date on each. Free reads back 6 lines, Plus 32 and Pro 84; the lines themselves stay on your phone either way, so the rest of the story is waiting rather than deleted. Peeka can also write a short profile of who they are from everything it has seen, and turn that into a card you can share.
What are badges?
Small milestones for filling in the Library — a few for how many species you’ve met overall, a couple for clearing every pet and every farm animal, and a wildlife set that pools sightings from every region equally, so it rewards how much you use the app rather than where you happen to live. They’re a name and a line, nothing more — badges never unlock features.
Do I need an account?
Not for the free tier — three peeks a day with no account and no sign-up; Peeka installs straight from this page in a couple of seconds, or runs right in the browser. Only paying asks you to sign in with Google — a plan or a peek pack both have to belong to an account so they can follow you between devices.
Can I buy peeks without subscribing?
Yes — peek packs are a one-off purchase, 10 peeks for A$1.99 or 30 for A$4.99. They never expire, and they are only spent once that day’s included peeks run out, so a pack sits there for the afternoon you meet six animals instead of becoming a monthly bill you would have to remember to cancel. Buying one needs a free account, because the balance has to belong to someone.
How do I install it on my phone?
On Android, and in Chrome or Edge on desktop, tap Install Peeka and accept the prompt. On iPhone, open this page in Safari, tap Share, then Add to Home Screen. Once installed it launches from your home screen like any other app.
I subscribed on one device — how do I get my plan on another?
Install Peeka on the new device, then sign in with the same Google account and your plan is simply there — never buy it twice. A subscription belongs to your Google account, not to a device, so each new phone or computer just needs one sign-in. On iPhone, sign in inside the installed app (not Safari) — Apple keeps their storage separate.
Does it work in my language?
Yes — automatically. Peeka replies in the language your phone or browser is already set to; there’s nothing to pick and no setting to find. And the voice survives the trip: the same dry delivery in French or Japanese as in English, a real translation rather than a word swap.
Can Peeka read it out loud?
Yes, on paid peeks — a Read aloud button appears under the writing on any peek covered by a plan or a peek pack. It uses your phone’s own voice in the language it’s already set to, so there’s nothing to install and no setting to find, and it only ever starts when you tap it. The free tier is read, not heard.
What happens to my photos?
They stay yours. A photo is sent securely for analysis and the result comes straight back — your history, pets and Library live in your phone’s local storage, not in a cloud account.
Take it with you
Keep it in your pocket.
Peeka installs straight from this page — no account needed, a couple of seconds. It lands on your home screen like any other app and launches instantly.
This browser doesn’t offer one-tap install — Peeka still runs right here. On your phone, Chrome, Edge or Safari can add it to the home screen.
