Quick Answer
In 2026, identity-based feeding is the only reliable way to manage resource guarding and food aggression in multi-cat homes. Unlike outdated RFID or microchip systems, the Cheerble Match G1 utilizes Face ID and Edge AI to provide a collar-free experience that respects a cat's natural instincts.With 99.9% recognition accuracy and an Autonomous Learning model that adapts to a kitten's growth, the Match G1 ensures each cat gets the right meal every time. By processing all data locally on its NPU, it maintains 100% air gap privacy, making it the most secure and precise AI-feeder on the market.
If you're still using a timed dispenser in 2026, you're managing chaos, not cats. In a multi-cat home, that approach leads to stolen meals, weight gain in the wrong cat, and compromised medical diets. The question isn't whether you need a smart cat feeder. It's which technology you trust.
The Death of the "One-Size-Fits-All" Bowl
Why Traditional Automation Fails
Traditional smart feeders dispense food at scheduled times. But they can't answer the critical question in a multi-cat home: who's actually eating?
When you have a dominant cat who steals food, timing alone solves nothing. The bully just learns the schedule.
The Shift to Identity Verification
Compared to legacy RFID feeders on the market, the Match G1 removes the 2-second 'handshake delay' that leads to compromised medical diets. However, in real-world multi-cat homes, they failed for one reason: speed.
The 2-3 second delay between chip detection and door opening was long enough for a determined cat to shoulder in. By the time the system confirmed identity, food stealing was already happening. That stress compounds into behavioral issues over time. Long-term feeding stress is not just a behavioral issue. Veterinary studies have linked chronic resource competition to elevated cortisol levels, reduced appetite in submissive cats, and increased risk of stress-related conditions.
The Cheerble Match G1 represents the shift to intelligence. It verifies identity in real-time using visual recognition. This is the new gold standard: not "when" they eat, but "who" is eating.
Naked Recognition: Why Collar-Free is the Future of Feline Safety
Cat collars cause skin irritation, matted fur, and choking hazards. For RFID feeders requiring tags, cats wear collars 24/7 just to eat. That's creating a new problem, not solving one.
Why Feline Instincts Matter
Cats are solitary, "naked" hunters. Face ID technology allows them to maintain that natural state. No collar. No tag. No stress.
When a cat associates mealtime with collar discomfort, feeding becomes negative. That stress compounds into behavioral issues over time.
Reliability Without Dependencies
RFID tags get lost. Collars slip off. Batteries die. With Face ID, if the cat is there, the system recognizes them. No dependencies. No failure points.
This is Naked Recognition. The cat approaches naturally. The Match G1 identifies them. The meal happens.
Precision at Scale: 99.9% Accuracy for Complex Diets
The Engineering Behind 99.9%
The Match G1 achieves 99.9% recognition accuracy* through advanced visual recognition algorithms. The NPU analyzes dozens of biometric markers: cheek width, eye spacing, ear angle, whisker patterns, nose bridge shape.
This creates a unique facial signature for each cat, processed in milliseconds.
Why Accuracy Matters for Medical Diets
In a multi-cat family where one cat needs kidney care or diet food, 99% isn't enough. That 1% error could mean the wrong cat eating medicated food.
Individualized Nutrition Without Supervision
The Match G1 allows you to program completely different meal plans for each cat. High-calorie food for the underweight senior. Diet food for the overweight tabby. Prescription kidney care for the medical case.
The system handles the complexity automatically. You fill the chambers. The Face ID ensures each cat gets exactly what they need. No manual supervision. No hovering. No anxiety about whether the sick cat actually ate their food.
Zero Latency vs. Handshake Delay
Traditional RFID feeders operate with "handshake delay." The chip is detected, sent to a processor, verified, then a command unlocks the door. That process takes 2-3 seconds.
The Match G1 eliminates the handshake entirely. Face ID recognition happens in under 0.1 seconds. The door opens instantly. There's no window for food stealing.
This speed difference is why Face ID works in multi-cat homes where RFID struggles.
Privacy by Design: Edge AI and the Local Processing Advantage
The Cloud-Free Guarantee
Most camera-based smart feeders upload video to cloud servers. Your home. Your cats. Your routine. All sent to third-party data centers.
The Match G1 never does this. All Face ID processing happens locally using Edge AI.
Local NPU: Your Data Stays Home
The device contains a dedicated Neural Processing Unit (NPU) that handles all visual recognition computations. When your cat approaches, their face is analyzed, identified, and authorized entirely within the feeder's hardware.
No internet upload. No external server. No third-party access. Your cat's biometric data stays locked inside the device.
Air Gap Security in 2026
The Match G1 creates a 100% air gap for biometric data. Even if your home Wi-Fi is compromised, facial recognition data never leaves the device.
This is data privacy by design. Not a policy. A structural guarantee built into the hardware architecture.
The Evolving Feeder: Autonomous Learning and Growth Tracking
Beyond Static Models
Traditional smart feeders learn your cat's face once during setup, then apply that fixed template forever. But cats aren't static. They grow. They age. Their facial structure changes over time.
The Match G1 uses autonomous learning to adapt continuously. This is what separates a smart feeder from an intelligent one.
Growth Adaptation in Real-Time
A kitten's face at 12 weeks looks dramatically different at 12 months. Cheek width increases. Eye proportions shift. Ear angles change.
Static Face ID systems fail here, requiring constant re-enrollment. The Match G1 treats growth as continuous data, not an error.
Every feeding event refines the model. The system observes facial changes and updates the baseline automatically. The model evolves alongside your cat.
Set It and Forget It
You enroll your cats once during setup. The autonomous learning algorithm handles everything after that.
Your kitten grows into an adult? The Match G1 adapts. Your senior cat loses weight? The system adjusts. Your long-haired cat gets a summer shave? Recognition continues flawlessly.
You never re-scan. You never re-enroll. The AI-feeder just works.

Disclaimer & Technical Notes:
¹ 99% recognition accuracy is based on internal laboratory testing under controlled conditions. Actual performance may vary depending on environmental factors such as ambient lighting and unique feline physical characteristics.
