Watch how Hero works
Hero was designed to help caregivers keep their loved ones on track and independent with loads of features.
Hero works with any size or shape
No matter what your loved one's meds look like, Hero will hold up to 10 different pills at one time (note: Hero does not work with half pills). If your loved one takes more than 10 different pills or vitamins, those doses can be scheduled on the app and they'll still get reminders to take them when needed.
90+ day supply at a time
Depending on the size of their pills and vitamins, Hero can hold up to a 90+ day supply so you spend less time sorting pills.
Pin code & key
Hero has an optional pin code for your loved one to release their medication and you can also limit the number of meds manually released outside their normal schedule.
Stop wasting time sorting
Just pour your loved one's pills in the right container and you’re done - no need to spend hours every week sorting pills into pillboxes.
Hero lights up and makes a sound
Your loved one will hear Hero's alarm and see when it’s time for them to take a dose - we can also send them a notification to their phone or tablet.
Get notified on your phone
As a caregiver, we'll send you a phone notification via the app after 15 minutes so you can contact your loved one if they missed a dose.
I bought it for my mom about 3 months ago. I no longer have to monitor her medication. In program which pills at what time and it alerts me if she doesn't take them. And it rings at her until she takes them.

We purchased the Hero for my mother and it’s amazing! Just what we’ve been looking for..the only down side is that it only holds 10 pills and my mom takes 20. I’m ordering another one today, I’m going to split her pills and use one machine for morning, the other one for evening!

This has been a lifesaver. My mother is still fairly independent but was completely unable to manage her own meds. She was at the point we were looking at moving her to assisted living primarily for med management. We tried the hero as a last resort and it was exactly what we needed.

Hero takes care of the sorting, dispensing, and managing of your loved one's prescription medication.
Simple Hero can be used on its own or with an optional smartphone app (Android & iPhone) so everyone can use it. As a caregiver, you can manage your loved one's schedule remotely.
Peace of Mind Know that your loved ones are taking the right meds at the right time, every time. Through the app you can monitor their progress and get notified if they miss a dose.
Stay Healthy 100% adherence helps keep loved ones healthy, out of the hospital and out of the nursing home so they can stay independent longer without having to worry about them.
Less Sorting Just fill-up the medication containers about once a month and you're done sorting pills.
Sound, light and phone reminders means never needing to remind your parents when to take their meds.
Hero is made to make it easy for users to take their pills and to know which ones to take. Hero will light up, make a noise and also send a notification to your loved one's phone or tablet (Android or iPhone) if they forget to take their medications.
First, Hero provides an audio and light notification
Audio and light notification will repeat 3 times (configurable)
Then we send a notification via the app before contacting the caregiver
Lastly, we can send a notification to caregiver via the app if a dose is missed
We’re happy to help answer any questions you have

The Hero service includes the Hero device, the Hero app, and 24/7 support.
The Hero device is an incredibly complicated piece of hardware that needs to work every time to ensure the health of our users (as well as comply with both FDA and HIPAA regulations). Similar devices that are on a membership model like Philips ($60 a month) and MedMinder ($50 a month) are significantly more expensive and provide fewer features. Other options that are available to buy outright, like Livi ($979) and Medacube ($1299) are very expensive to purchase. None of these devices include an app that allows users to interface with the Hero either as the primary user or remotely as a caregiver.
The membership model allows us to offer Hero to as many users as possible at an affordable price while also receiving constant updates to both the app and the firmware that controls the Hero device. Your membership also includes our limited warranty for the duration of your Hero membership.
In addition, members have access to our live support 24/7 if they have any questions or need help.
Multiple caregivers can be connected to the same Hero device but Hero is designed to dispense pills to a single user. If multiple people in your household need to use Hero, they will need to buy a device for each individual user.
Hero can dispense whole pills of any shape, size, or texture. Hero cannot, however, dispense half pills, injectables, liquids, or soft gummies, like chewy children’s vitamins. You can still store these types of medications outside of Hero, and use the Hero app to track your schedules, with the full support of Hero’s notifications and reminders.
Unfortunately, Hero devices currently hold a maximum of 10 pills. You can buy 2 devices in order to dispense more than 10 different pills daily.
Hero may now be covered by Medicare!
