Forgetting to take medicine no longer bothers you
I think everyone has seen the movie "Hong Kong", and the reminder of the role played by Xu Wei, which is played by Xu Wei, is also memorable. "The medicine can't stop, the medicine can't stop...". If we have such equipment in our lives, we don't have to worry about forgetting to take medicine.
Recently, a startup from New York, Hero, plans to introduce a new high-tech home appliance designed to replace the original plastic pillbox.
According to the introduction and demonstration by the Hero R&D team, this machine is very simple and convenient to use. The user only needs to put various pills, pills, vitamins and other nutraceuticals into the machine, and then set the amount of each intake and the time of taking the medicine. As long as you follow the above steps, it will automatically remind you to take the medicine at the specified time and prepare the appropriate amount of medicine.
Two co-founders of Kut Akdogan and Kal Vepuri said that they have the relevant background and experience working in the healthcare field. Let's say Akdogan, who worked for the famous international management consulting firm Bain & Co., where he was responsible for the business of large medical equipment manufacturing companies. Not only that, he also participated in the creation of nutrition start-up Almond.
But I want to ask, is it really so difficult for people to remember to take medicine on time? According to relevant survey data, in a country in the United States alone, the number of people who die due to non-compliance with doctors is up to 125,000. The resulting medical damage is astonishingly as high as $100 billion to $289 billion. Of course, there are other devices on the market that specialize in classifying pills, but Akdogan explains that the design philosophy of these devices does not reflect the people-oriented and customer-first spirit. In contrast, this Hero's equipment is very user-friendly, and its various functions are considered from the customer's point of view, which is very convenient and easy to use.
In fact, Akdogan said that some users may think that this device is somewhat like a coffee machine, and he himself agrees with this statement. Why is it like a coffee machine? Because the first thing you want to do after getting up in the morning is to turn on the coffee machine, cook a pot of fragrant coffee, and when you press the button, the machine starts to work, a sense of accomplishment It will come to life. Under normal circumstances, this magical feeling is definitely not seen in the case of seeing a doctor and taking medicine.
Hero not only provides a variety of color choices on the display, but also produces some very nice background sounds when you give the medicine, so that people can feel comfortable and forget the frustrating thing of taking the medicine itself.
Akdogan also said that from a more practical point of view, the device will ask for your consent before giving the user a prescription. This is much more convenient. If you are traveling, there will be no confusion caused by the automatic distribution of pills after you return. He said the device can manage and distribute several different types of drugs, and can hold up to 10 pills at a time.
In addition to the device itself, the company has also developed a mobile app for use. Whether you are taking your medicine on time or not eating for a variety of reasons, it can warn your family members or other caregivers. Not only that, Akdogan also stressed that the app is strictly in compliance with HIPAA regulations, so it will protect the user's private information.
This Hero device is exclusively funded by Vepuri's company Brainchild. Currently, this device accepts user bookings at a discounted price of $399. (After the official launch, the retail price will be set at $999.) The company plans to begin shipping in the early summer and deliver the product to the user. Some of the basic features of its mobile app are free to use, but if users need to enjoy some extra services, they will have to pay.
