Breeding records for every method
Whether you’re doing natural cover, AI with fresh semen, AI with cooled shipped semen, or embryo transfer, Proper Strides tracks every breeding event with the detail you need.
- Stallion, mare, date, and method
- Technician, veterinarian, or breeder on file
- Semen source, batch, and shipping details when relevant
- Notes on the breeding attempt and follow-up
Every breeding record ties to the mare’s cycle and — when a pregnancy is confirmed — to the resulting gestation and foal.
Gestation tracking, day by day
Once pregnancy is confirmed, Proper Strides tracks gestation from conception through foaling. Ultrasound checkpoints at 14, 30, 45, and 60 days. Vaccination schedules that adjust for pregnancy. Medications, complications, and observations along the way.
Equibot surfaces the milestones that matter and reminds you what’s coming next. No more counting days on your fingers or scrolling through group chats to find that ultrasound date.
Foaling records with lineage built in
When the foal arrives, the record is ready. Foaling date, time, presentation, complications, placenta, and everything else that matters gets logged as it happens.
The foal becomes a full horse in Proper Strides from day one — vaccinations, growth measurements, health records, everything — automatically linked to the dam and sire. Their history starts before their first breath and follows them for life.
Stallion standing operations
If you stand stallions, Proper Strides handles the operational side too. Track semen collections and quality. Manage mare bookings with a digital mare book. Watch a stallion’s get list build automatically from the foals produced across your program.

Invoicing for stud fees, board & collections — we take 0%
Bill mare owners for stud fees, chute fees, cooled or frozen shipping, mare board while she’s on your farm, and every ancillary charge. Powered by Stripe. Proper Strides charges no platform fee and no application fee — you pay Stripe’s standard rates directly, and nothing extra to us.
Every paid invoice ties the service back to the mare’s record automatically. Cover fees show up on the mare’s breeding timeline. Board charges attach to her stay. When the foal arrives, the record is complete — and so is Equibot’s picture of what happened. Full Stripe pricing at stripe.com/pricing.
Multi-mare programs & full operations
Whether you’re breeding two mares a year or eighty, Proper Strides scales. Filter and sort across your entire program. Team share with vets, technicians, and grooms so everyone sees the same records. Generate reports on cycles, breedings, and pregnancies at a program level.
Everything an individual mare owner can do, a full breeding operation can do at scale.
