Patented smart medication appliance

The right medication, for the right person, at the right time.

Visipill is a cloud-connected home appliance that loads, schedules, and securely dispenses medication by person, and lets every patient actually see their dose. Built to take on the $300-billion adherence problem.

Founded by a pharmacist, a 40+ year MD, and a Fortune 500 technologist.

The problem

Taking medicine correctly is the other drug problem.

Today's system does little to help patients with chronic illness stay educated, accountable, and adherent. People forget doses, take the wrong amount, or stop entirely, and the cost lands on patients, caregivers, insurers, and the whole healthcare system.

~50%of patients with chronic conditions don't take medications as prescribed
~125,000deaths a year in the U.S. are linked to medication non-adherence
$100–300Bin avoidable annual U.S. healthcare costs from non-adherence
What it is

A calm, connected appliance that handles the whole routine.

Visipill belongs on the kitchen counter, not in a drawer. A pharmacist schedules the plan, the household loads the medicine, and Visipill takes it from there, dispensing the right dose to the right person and tracking every one.

01 · Receive & load

Load in seconds

Bulk-load prescriptions into refillable canisters. Visipill detects and verifies what's inside.

02 · Schedule

Pharmacist-set plan

Doses are scheduled by a pharmacist per the doctor's instructions, and synced to the cloud.

03 · Dispense

Secure & visible

A fingerprint unlocks each person's profile. The dose drops into an illuminated cup you can see.

04 · Track

Adherence & refills

Every dose is tracked, caregivers get alerts on misses, and refills reorder automatically.

Why Visipill is different

Reliability, security, and visibility competitors don't combine.

Secure per-person profiles

One fingerprint loads the right person's plan. In a household, no one ever gets the wrong medicine by mistake.

You can see every dose

A transparent, LED-lit cup shows exactly what was dispensed, the reassurance the name "Visipill" is built on.

98% first-try accuracy

A patented method to pick, place, and return pills to the correct vial, with near-zero medication errors, far above the field.

Caregiver peace of mind

Real-time adherence tracking with instant alerts to family or caretakers the moment a dose is missed.

Auto-refill & pharmacy link

Visipill tracks supply and reorders refills automatically, keeping the pharmacy in the loop end-to-end.

On-board tele-health

A built-in screen and camera connect patients to care without leaving home, a channel most dispensers simply don't have.

The market

Three markets worth $1.56T, and no clear leader.

Visipill is built to start where the need is most acute and the buyers are concentrated, then expand into the home and beyond.

Business model

Hardware that earns, plus revenue that recurs.

Every device sold opens a subscription relationship, connecting the patient, the pharmacy, and the caregiver, and compounding over the install base.

  • $499 device with healthy hardware margin at launch volumes.
  • $39.99/month subscription per household for connectivity, tracking, and refills.
  • Recurring revenue scales with the install base toward monthly profitability.
