Hospitals can't see their own medicine.

Stock is counted by hand, restocked from memory, and goes missing between areas. The result is waste, lost clinical time, and medicine that isn't where it's needed.

Only the answer leaves the hospital.

One tag per pack

A pack of oseltamivir arrives at pharmacy intake. One passive RFID tag goes on. That is the last time anyone scans anything.

Counted by hand

Stock is still counted by hand and reordered from memory. A passive live view makes that work disappear.

Missing between areas

Medicine goes missing between wards and out of hours. MedCycle reads the whole clinical area, not a locked cabinet.

Waste you can't measure

Expensive vials expire or go unshared. We track residual volume so they get used, not binned.

The footprint underneath

Every read is a de-identified record of how medicines are actually used.

The footprint underneath is the real prize. The dataset stays in the hospital; pharma asks questions of it and only the answers leave. Truveta did this for clinical records. We do it for operational drug-flow data, which no one has built for the UK.

Software, not a device.

MedCycle is inventory and logistics software. It surfaces what is happening and leaves the clinical decisions to clinicians.
