The Problem

Patients in Nigeria call pharmacy after pharmacy searching for medications. No centralized way to check availability or compare prices.

The Solution

Built a search platform with AI-powered drug name matching (handles misspellings, brand/generic names) connected to pharmacy inventory systems for real-time availability and pricing.

Technical Challenges

1

Building fuzzy search that understood drug name variations, misspellings, and local brand names

2

Integrating with pharmacies that had no APIs—built scrapers and CSV import pipelines

3

Designing for users with limited tech literacy

Lessons Learned

Key Takeaways

  • Healthcare products need to work for the least technical user
  • When partners don't have APIs, you build the integration layer yourself
