MedKeep
BetaPoint the camera at the box. MedKeep reads the rest.
MedKeep is a bilingual household medicine tracker, in English and Arabic, for families keeping a home medicine cabinet. MedKeep records what medicine is in the house, how much is left, when it expires and who each one is for, and fills an entry in from a photograph of the label or a barcode scan. MedKeep is built by Sulayo, a Dubai product studio.

What it does
Scan the label, skip the typing
Photograph a medicine label and it is read for you: name, strength and dates lifted straight off the box, which is the difference between a cabinet that gets filled in and one that does not.
Barcode scanning
Point the camera at the barcode on the packet and the medicine is identified without a single keystroke.
English and العربية
Fully bilingual with proper right-to-left layout, not an afterthought translation, because the households this is built for switch between both languages daily.
Dose logging and history
Record a dose against the person who took it and keep the history, so nobody has to remember whether the evening dose was already given.
Reminders
Prompts for the doses that matter and warnings for what is about to expire, before you need it at two in the morning.
Roles for the whole household
Guardian, adult and child, so a parent manages the cabinet, a grandmother keeps her own list, and a child only sees what concerns them.
Prescriptions on file
Prescription documents stored against the person and the medicine, so the paperwork is where the medicine is.
Export and print
Take the whole cabinet with you to an appointment, on paper or as a file, instead of photographing boxes in the waiting room.
Questions people ask
How does MedKeep track medicine expiry dates?
MedKeep stores an expiry date against every medicine in the house and warns before it passes, so the box is found before it is needed rather than at the moment somebody is ill. Expiry is read off the label when the photograph is scanned, so it does not depend on anyone typing dates in correctly.
Do I have to type every medicine in by hand?
No, and that is the point. MedKeep reads the label from a photograph and can scan a barcode, so a cabinet is entered by pointing a camera at it rather than by typing. Nobody enters a full medicine cabinet by hand, which is why most household medicine lists are abandoned within a week of being started.
Does MedKeep work in Arabic?
Yes. MedKeep is bilingual English and Arabic with a right-to-left interface, not an English app with translated strings. That matters for a medicine cabinet in the Gulf, where a household commonly holds boxes labelled in both languages and the person managing them is not always the person who bought them.
Can MedKeep track medicine for several people in one house?
Yes. MedKeep records who each medicine is for and logs doses per person, with history, so a parent can see whether a child has already been given something today. Reminders are per person too. That is the difference between a stock list and something a household actually runs on.
What does MedKeep cost?
MedKeep has a fourteen-day free trial and two paid tiers: one capped by how many household members and medicines it tracks, and one unlimited. MedKeep is bought inside the app rather than through Sulayo, so the price shown at sign-up is the current one for the buyer's country.
