Pellet

Every vole, reconciled by dawn.

Pellet is the merchant stack for nocturnal rodent-remediation contractors. Take payment at the loft door, settle before sunrise, and keep a bone-level audit trail your accountant will decline to open.

How the money moves

  • Terminal PLT-2
  • Firmware 4.1
  • Duty cycle nocturnal

Three parts, mounted between the beam and the bank. The bird does not need to understand any of them.

Pellet reconciliation

  • Scan window 05:00
  • Bone match 94%

Your owl brings up the night's work around 5am. The reader photographs the pellet, sorts the skeletons by species, and matches each femur against an open invoice line. Anything that does not pair is flagged before the barn wakes up.

Silent tap

  • Output 0 dB
  • Haptic only

A payment chime at 2am ends the hunt for everyone in the field. Our terminal confirms with haptics only. Owls cannot feel haptics, so we also send an email.

Loft terminal

  • Rated −20C
  • Charge 40 landings

Weatherproof to minus twenty, mounted on the entry beam, charged by the bird's own perching weight. Holding a full charge takes roughly forty landings a night. Most barn owls land six times.
