Counterfeit medicines are a global crisis, causing countless deaths and undermining trust in healthcare. VeriMed AI addresses this with an end-to-end platform that combines computer vision and blockchain for secure, real-time drug authentication. Users—whether consumers, pharmacists, or regulators—can scan any medicine pack, even single sachets or damaged strips, using a smartphone. Our AI vision model analyzes key packaging features and checks authenticity against a blockchain-registered digital twin. Every result is accompanied by an easy-to-understand, context-aware explanation, and any flagged counterfeits trigger instant alerts and audit logs for rapid response. The system is designed for global scalability, supports multi-stakeholder dashboards, and aims to save lives, protect brands, and restore trust in medicine. Already piloted with pharmacies and regulators in Nigeria, VeriMed AI is building the future of safe pharmaceuticals—one scan at a time.
