💊 PillO – The Blinkit of Indian Healthcare? Absolutely

Today, I stumbled upon an app I hadn’t heard of before: PillO: Meds in Minutes. Out of curiosity, I downloaded it and decided to try ordering a few OTC products and medicines.


And honestly? The entire user journey was seamless:

- Scan a product image/barcode OR upload a prescription

- Instantly discover available meds & best deals

- Delivered in under 60 minutes ⏲️


As someone who builds digital products, this experience reminded me of the magic you feel with Instamart or Blinkit — but for urgent healthcare needs, where time isn’t just convenience, it’s critical.


But here’s what truly blew me away 👇


While receiving my order, it wasn’t just a delivery executive at the door…

It was none other than Kaushal Shah, the Founder & CEO of PillO: Meds in Minutes, personally collecting real-time feedback from users.


📽️ He was:

Documenting live customer feedback & asking thoughtful product questions:

• “How did you discover PillO?”

• “Why choose this over your nearby pharmacy?”

• “What were the biggest pain points?”

Truly listening — with humility and curiosity.


This, to me, is product obsession at its finest.

The kind of founder empathy and hands-on feedback loop that no analytics dashboard can ever replace.


As a product person myself, I was inspired.


And I just want to say — hats off to the PillO team

- 🚀 Fast UX.

- 🩺 Critical use-case.

- 📦 Fast delivery.

- ❤️ Founder empathy.


PillO isn’t just building a product. They’re building trust.

In a market dominated by giants like Tata 1MG, PharmEasy, etc., I truly believe they’re carving their own lane.


If you haven’t checked it out yet — I’d recommend giving it a try.

PillO might just become your Blinkit for medicines.
