About LiviPod
If the name LiviPod sounds familiar, it's because it's the second generation of the Livi pill dispensing technology. We took all the lessons from the Livi and incorporated them into this next-generation product.
Years of real-world use of the original Livi has taught us a few things:
- People don't want to pay never-ending subscription fees for a device that's in their own home.
- They don't want to be locked into a fixed carousel with a set number of slots, resulting in either insufficient or unused capacity.
- They don't want to sort pills or deal with fiddly implementation.
- They're more comfortable setting up schedules in an app than programming a hardware device with lots of buttons.
LiviPod is built around those lessons, and is unlike anything else on the market today:
- It is a high-capacity smart pill dispenser enabled by our robust, AI powered (and completely free) pill scheduling app.
- We have no monthly fee and don't lock people into subscriptions they'll later regret.
- Because it's modular, it can adapt to virtually unlimited applications or regimens... from individuals to research labs.
Unrivaled Capability
LiviPod accepts soft gels and soft caplets, which very few dispensers can handle. It uses gravity dispensing rather than mechanical dispensing for better reliability and much quieter operation. And with each pod holding up to 150 pills, our capacity is unrivaled.
Remote Dispensing
With intelligent permissions through our app, a caregiver can release a precisely scheduled dose remotely via Wi-Fi. (Nothing comes out until an approved user taps Dispense on the app).
Unlimited caregivers and cared-for people
Family, friends and professionals can all join a support circle at no extra cost, and one caregiver can support everyone they care for from a single app.
