barker.fyi quietly logs when the dog next door is barking, turns it into a tidy report, and sends a kind, anonymous heads-up — proof attached, drama not included.
No conversations recorded · No names attached · Just barks
You never have to knock, confront, or write an awkward note. barker.fyi does the diplomatic part.
Leave a phone or small mic by the window. barker.fyi listens for barks and ignores everything else — including any human voices, which are stripped on the spot.
Every bark gets a timestamp. You get a clean report: how often, how long, and when it peaks — so a 2am pattern is obvious at a glance.
One tap sends a polite, anonymous message with the report attached. Friendly wording, real proof, zero confrontation.
The whole point is to be the good neighbor. barker.fyi is designed so the only thing it ever keeps is the dog — turning a touchy situation into a friendly, factual one.
No passive-aggression, no legal threats. Pick a tone, and barker.fyi sends something warm and clear — with the proof doing the talking.
A bark isn't random noise. Decades of behavioural research show it carries real structure — enough that trained software can tell why a dog is barking, and even which dog, from the sound alone.
Dogs bark differently when they're alarmed, left alone, frustrated, or playing. Vets group most barking into a few causes — territorial or alarm, attention-seeking, frustration, and loneliness or separation distress.
At Budapest's Family Dog Project, a machine-learning study analysed 6,000+ barks across six situations and classified them by context — and by individual dog — at rates that beat human listeners.
A 2024 deep-learning study trained on 19,643 barks from 113 dogs reported the best context-classification results yet. This is a real, actively maturing field.
