Pileus is the first smart pillbox with Alexa built-in. Designed for both patients and their caregivers, Pileus helps you to remember to take your medication on time. You only need your voice to interact with it. It can answer you, keep track of each time you’ve taken or missed a medication, and share this information with your loved ones and caregivers. It can also play music and much more. Disclaimer: this is a prototype, which is still under development.
Pileus contains 28 compartments for a week’s supply of medication. It's removable compartments make the cleaning and refilling easy. Pileus can warn a close relative if you forget to take your medication
We as NXP Semiconductors have provided the micro controller solution inside Pileus. BYTEK is really Pleasant to work with: innovative, insightfull and user experience centric on top of high technical skills. The idea behind their product is great and we look forward fantastic new use cases enabled . This is just the start of the Journey and I ma sure many more innovations and brilliant ideas are still to come. This connected device is a first of a kind and a full eco system can be build around it to improve patient experience and care effectiveness Eric Maurice, NXP semiconductors
We, at the Amazon Alexa team in Spain are supporting BYTEK in their implementation of an Alexa built-in device. I have been really impressed with the BYTEK team, and their tech skills. We introduced them Alexa Voice Service and the tools and possibilities that it can bring to their concept of a smart pill holder, and only 4 weeks later, they came again with a working prototype!! They were able to designed and built it on their own with very low support. I have not seen this often. After that, they have evolved the concept and come up with an almost final design very fast. I also love their vision on how technology can help solving the challenges of the Health system, specially around polymedicated patients. and how they have integrated Alexa in the vision with their modular Cloudy solution. A really talented and motivated team of great professionals!Carlos Fernández Casares, Amazon Alexa Spain
BYTEK smart solutions is a very dynamic start-up working on a product with great potential to improve the adherence of polymedicated patients. Thanks to Alexa built-in, this product has a very competitive place in the current market of smart pill dispensers. Medication errors are a major concern to healthcare systems because they can reduce the therapeutic effectiveness, either pose a health risk and represent an incremental cost for the healthcare systems and the insurance companies. In the Basque Health Cluster we think this project can provide an accurate solution to this international problem. We also think that the CLOUDY universe has a great potential thanks to all the clinical data collected by the devices. It creates a digital care record that can be of great interest both for the user and for subsequent explotation by health systems.María Pascual de Zulueta, Basque Health Cluster
BYTEK is an innovative technological start up. It is supervised by BEAZ-Department of Economic Promotion of the Regional Government of Bizkaia, within the framework of its aid programmes for the development of innovative business projects. CLOUDY is an innovative development created by Bytek. It is a generator of an intelligent ecosystem with interconnected devices at home. It also provides wearables that control the health and safety of people.Miguel Benito Butrón, BEAZ Bizkaia
