About SmartRX Medicine Vending Machine

SmartRx Pte Ltd is a Singapore healthtech company founded in 2019 with a mission to use technology to improve convenience, reduce waiting times, increase productivity, and improve overall healthcare provisioning for the masses. The company is related to Aeras Medical Pte Ltd.

SmartRx's core focus is on smart drug dispensing machines. The company received a grant from Enterprise Singapore to develop its Smart Drug Dispensing Solution, and signed a Research Collaboration Agreement with Changi General Hospital to co-develop a pharmacist-only medication smart drug dispensing solution. SmartRx also won a tender with SingHealth Pharmacare, resulting in three machines being launched: one at the Singapore National Eye Centre for specialised eyecare products, one outside Marine Parade Polyclinic for general medicinal items, and one at the National Dental Centre Singapore for specialised dental products.

Beyond deploying its own machines, SmartRx offers its dispensing technology as a service to other organisations, including buying or leasing machines (leasing currently available to Singapore customers only), machine and software customisation, logistics and managed services covering inventory management, restocking, maintenance and upgrades, marketing outreach channels within the healthcare segment, and retail opportunities for businesses wanting to list products in SmartRx's own fleet of dispensing machines.

SmartRx: Singapore's Smart Drug Dispensing Machine Company

SmartRx Pte Ltd was founded in 2019 to bring smart, technology-driven dispensing solutions into Singapore's healthcare system. The company's stated mission is to use technology to improve convenience, cut waiting times, boost productivity, and improve overall healthcare provisioning for the wider public.

Backed by Grants and Hospital Partnerships

SmartRx's flagship work centres on its Smart Drug Dispensing Solution, developed with support from a grant from Enterprise Singapore. The company has also formalised a Research Collaboration Agreement with Changi General Hospital to co-develop a pharmacist-only medication smart drug dispensing solution — a partnership aimed at bringing automated dispensing capability directly into a hospital pharmacy setting.

Live Machines Across SingHealth Sites

SmartRx's technology has already moved from development into deployment. After winning a tender with SingHealth Pharmacare, the company launched three machines across Singapore healthcare sites: one at the Singapore National Eye Centre (SNEC) dispensing specialised eyecare products, one positioned outside Marine Parade Polyclinic for general medicinal items, and one at the National Dental Centre Singapore (NDCS) dispensing specialised dental products. Each machine is tailored to the specific product category needed at its location, reflecting SmartRx's ability to customise its dispensing solution for different clinical contexts.

A Service Offering Beyond Its Own Machines

SmartRx doesn't only operate its own fleet — it also offers its dispensing technology and expertise as a service to other organisations. Businesses and healthcare providers can buy or lease SmartRx's machines, with leasing currently available to Singapore-based customers (overseas customers are invited to enquire directly). For organisations with specific needs, SmartRx offers machine and software customisation, and is open to broader collaboration to trial new innovative healthcare solutions.

On the operational side, SmartRx provides logistics and managed services, covering inventory management, restocking, machine maintenance and upgrades — effectively running the day-to-day operations of a dispensing machine on a client's behalf. The company also offers marketing outreach channels for businesses wanting to reach a targeted healthcare audience, and retail opportunities for companies wanting to list their own products in SmartRx's dispensing machine fleet.

A Related Healthcare Business

SmartRx is connected to Aeras Medical Pte Ltd, a related healthcare company, reflecting a broader group presence in Singapore's healthtech and medical space.
