VENTURE

Crafting Visipill

Building the next generation of medication management that provides smart dispensers, mobile apps, and smart pill containers that take the hassle out of medication management.

The problem with medication adherence

Medication management is a hassle. Missing doses, running out of pills, and monitoring adherence to medication routines are common problems. Visipill wanted to solve this problem for the millions of patients struggling to manage their own care.

I helped to comprehensively design and built the Visipill platform including the pill dispenser, dispenser interface, companion mobile app, and integrations with pharmacy systems. The full team included industrial design, computer and mechanical engineering, creative and user experience design, and product leadership.

Next-generation adhearance

After investigating competitive products, pertinent patents, relevant technologies, and similar user engagements, we were confident the Visipill dispensing product is unique and provides pharmaceutical companies and pharmacist networks a consumer solution to improve and monitor medicine adherence. With the right ecosystem partners, this platform can be used to improve outcomes for chronic patients worldwide.

Prototypes and future development

The entire visipill platform required a large design and development team to produce the functional end-to-end prototypes. The prototypes that were built have gone on for user testing (in real-world environments) prior to design for manufacturing.
