The Medication Adherence Crisis
Medication adherence remains one of healthcare's biggest challenges: 50% of chronic patients discontinue treatment within 3-6 months, missed doses lead to treatment failure and rehospitalization, pill boxes and SMS reminders are error-prone with no objective confirmation, and there was a lack of digital-first solutions designed for both patients and physicians.
Low Adherence Rates
50% of chronic patients discontinue treatment within 3-6 months, leading to treatment failure and rehospitalization
Unreliable Tracking
Pill boxes, SMS reminders, and manual tracking were error-prone with no objective way to confirm medication intake
Patient Engagement
Lack of incentives to maintain long-term medication routines and no digital-first solutions for patients and physicians
Validation Gap
No technology existed to objectively verify if medication was actually taken vs just marked as taken
AI-Powered Pill Detection
Computer vision that validates medication intake in real-time
Developed AI/ML pill detection using YOLOv3/v4 computer vision models with >95% accuracy
Implemented face recognition (HOG + SVM/CNN) to ensure correct patient identity
Built action validation sequence: open mouth → pill → close mouth → verify
Created smart scheduling with prescription digitization within 24 hours
Integrated multi-channel notifications: app, SMS, and automated voice calls
Designed gamified rewards: streaks, performance rings, and monthly scratch cards
Built physician dashboard for remote adherence monitoring
