What Happened to Smart Snout After Dragons’ Den?
Smart Snout appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2023, Series 20 Episode 8. The business was a biometric technology and ai to protect pets against loss and theft. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The business is still active today.
The Pitch
Bradley Watson and James Khan walked into the Den in 2023 with a biometric technology and ai to protect pets against loss and theft. They were asking for £50,000 in exchange for 10% of the business.
Despite their best efforts, the pitch didn’t convince the Dragons to open their wallets.
The Deal
No deal was made. The Dragons weren’t persuaded to invest, and Bradley Watson and James Khan left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
Smart Snout is one of those Den stories that actually lasted. The business has now been trading for around 5 years since the pitch.
Is Smart Snout Still Available?
Yes. Smartpet Technology Limited appears to still be trading. Companies House records confirm the business is currently active.
