Use Cases

Healthcare

From counterfeit Ozempic and Gilead HIV medicine, to untraced medical implants, from gray market skin care to tampered surgery supplies, the world of healthcare is rife with illegal activities. FeaturePrint enables you and your customers to uniquely identify, trace, and ensure the authenticity of your products whether they go in or on the body. Trace your products throughout their full life-cycle and ensure they meet all quality and safety standards.

ABOUT FEATUREPRINT

The challenge

Inventory Management

Efficient inventory management in the healthcare industry is essential for cost savings, as it minimizes holding costs and reduces the risk of loss or theft. Ensuring precise inventory control also guarantees the quality and authenticity of products, maintaining trust and safety in the market.

Illegally Sourced Parts

Illegally made items such as pharmaceuticals, medical devices, skin care, or supplements, often indistinguishable from legitimate products, lacks proper certification and quality, posing serious risks to patients, care givers, hospitals, and medical companies.

Provenance and Traceability

Tracing healthcare products throughout their life-cycle can be complicated. The complexity of the supply chain makes it challenging to ensure that products are legally sourced and not part of fraudulent activities, and that they are traced as they move globally, dispersed and used, or discarded when expired.

Identify and trace

From pharmaceuticals, medical devices, skin care, and supplements, you just need to take a photo of your product. With that one photo, our system will automatically create a baseline FeaturePrint (a digital fingerprint) that is unique and specific to that one item out of many. As each item is serialized by our system (even if it is not by yours), you can identify it individually, trace it, and ensure its provenance. Not at the batch, lot, or mold level, but rather at the individual item level.

Along your production line, throughout your supply chain, or in the marketplace, you or others you authorize, will be able to take another photo of that item, and immediately identify, authenticate and trace it out of the millions, where it came from, and where else it has been. All with just pictures taken with your mobile phone. No engravings, markings, stickers, or tags.

Just take a photo of your part, product, or item. Use a mobile phone or industrial camera.

 

No marking, changing, adding, or manipulating. No pixy dust, holograms, barcodes, tags or stickers. No x-ray, spectral imaging, 3D mapping, or infra red.

Our patented algorithms automatically identify and codify the unique attributes and features inherently existing on the item.

 

It then creates a one-of-a-kind FeaturePrint® (a 'digital fingerprint') that can be used for identification, authentication, and traceability.The ONE of millions. Just like your own fingerprint.

You, your customer, your distributer, your quality control, or anyone you choose, can take a picture of the item and identify it, authenticate it, and trace it. Simple.

 

No special scanners, readers, or tools. Just a camera. Even the one on your phone.
