The problem

Counterfeit and expired medicines were reaching pharmacy shelves, and nobody in the chain could reliably tell a genuine pack from a copy. Patients had to trust the box.

Regulators only learned about fakes after someone was harmed, and recalls relied on phone calls and paper lists that never reached every pack.

What we built

MediTrace gives every licensed pack a unique serial at the factory. Each hand-off, from manufacturer to distributor to pharmacy, is recorded, so every unit has a verified journey.

Anyone can scan a pack and get an answer in seconds. Every failed or suspicious scan feeds a live intelligence view, so regulators can spot cloned codes and fake clusters by region and recall a batch in one click.

01 for patients

Scan the pack. Know it’s real.

A one-screen mobile check that works for anyone, with no app account needed. The result is clear before the patient finishes reading it.

02 for regulators

Counterfeit intelligence, live

Every failed scan becomes a signal. A regional heatmap shows where fake and not-found scans are clustering, live alerts flag cloned-code spikes and expired-resale attempts, and a recall reaches every affected unit at once.

  • Cloned-code detection
  • Live alerts
  • One-click recalls

03 for the supply chain

One secure sign-in for every licensed handler

Manufacturers register drugs and serialise batches. Distributors and pharmacies transfer ownership as stock moves. Ministry staff manage licences and investigations. Each role sees only what it needs, behind multi-factor sign-in.
