How is uYao different from a pharmacy POS?
A POS and the national insurance claim system record transactions and claims. uYao is an action layer beside them that turns inventory, expiry, and nearby demand into return, reorder, and reservation work waiting for pharmacist approval. They are complementary, not replacements.
Three roles, three jobs
Records transactions and claims
Sales, the stock ledger, insurance claims. This is the pharmacy's record and compliance layer. It is used every day and should stay that way.
Connects signals to action
Turns lot expiry, stockouts, and nearby demand into concrete work — return this, cut that, reorder, hold one — pushes it into Store OS, and records what actually happened.
Keeps the judgement and the approval
Every critical decision — return or not, reorder or not, hold or not — is approved, rejected, or corrected by the pharmacist. uYao does not make professional judgements.
Side by side
uYao does not replace a POS, insurance claims, or a pharmacist's judgement, and the pilot does not require changing your existing systems. For the verification status of each uYao capability in this table (code/test, prototype, pilot), seethe product evidence page.
When uYao is worth a look
If your pain is bookkeeping or claims, improve the POS. If it is expired stock turning into write-offs, missed return windows, or not knowing what people nearby are looking for, that is an action-layer problem — start withthe expiry management guide. If you are comparing tools, readthe AI inventory tools guide, or apply to the pilot directly.

Try it on one return loop
uYao is recruiting independent pharmacies to validate the first on-site loop. No POS change, no change to how you scan, and no patient or prescription data.
