In Ethiopia and across Africa people suffer health complications due to poor access to medication. Patients spend days going from pharmacy to pharmacy looking for their prescribed medication. The medication that they so desperately need might be expiring on shelf at a pharmacy in the same city but it remains inaccessible to them due to lack of information. Hulu medicine offers a chatbot that helps patients locate medications in minutes. Patients upload a photo of their prescription and reach hundreds of pharmacies instantly. They locate their medication in multiple pharmacies and can compare prices. Hulu Medicine uses the data gathered during its operation to inform investments and donations in the pharmaceutical market. Hulu Medicine has validated its product market fit and revenue model through a two-months pilot program.
