## What is PillCount?

PillCount turns your phone's camera into a pill counting machine. Point the camera at pills on any flat surface and get an accurate count in seconds — no manual counting, no counting trays, no errors.

BUILT FOR PHARMACY WORKFLOWS
Pharmacists and pharmacy technicians use PillCount during fast-paced prescription filling. Two counting modes fit the way you work:
• Live mode — real-time counting as you pour, with instant on-screen feedback
• Photo mode — capture a tray of pills and get a verified count with detection circles on every pill

AI THAT SEES EVERY PILL
An on-device vision model detects each pill and draws a circle around it, so you can verify the count at a glance. Mixed pill types are flagged before you save, catching batch errors before they reach the dispensing bench.

INVENTORY THAT KEEPS ITSELF
Every verified count is saved to a dated inventory report. Track stock levels, keep a history of counts per drug, and reconcile your shelves without spreadsheets. Scan a barcode to pull the drug name automatically.

DESIGNED FOR THE PHARMACY FLOOR
• High-contrast interface that stays readable under harsh fluorescent lighting
• Large touch targets that work with gloved hands
• Fast, one-handed operation — the camera is always one tap away
• On-device processing: prescription images never leave your phone

Stop counting pills by hand. Let PillCount do the counting so you can focus on your patients.
