About 9lione
Based in Nerima-ku, Tokyo, Japan, 9lione, Inc. was founded in 2018 by Yusho Hirota and operates a licensed pharmaceutical wholesale and distribution-improvement DX platform that moves surplus medicines held by medical institutions and pharmacies to institutions facing shortages. The company operates two current offerings. 9lione Cloud is a cloud pharmaceutical inventory-management system for medical institutions and pharmacies that provides prescription OCR capture from a tablet or smartphone including handwritten prescriptions, GS1-code reading without a dedicated barcode reader, automatic creation and updating of inventory lists, automatic drug-price revision updates, consumption-based order forecasting and a lending and sales ledger for transactions with nearby pharmacies. 9lione Platform enables institutions to sell surplus in-house medicines and to procure hard-to-obtain pharmaceuticals; the company holds a pharmaceutical wholesale license and takes the stock onto its own books, handling quality control, traceability and delivery under Japan's Pharmaceutical and Medical Device Act and GDP standards rather than acting only as a matching marketplace. The company earns revenue from a per-store monthly subscription charge for its cloud pharmaceutical-management service, offered from a free trial tier, and from acting as a licensed pharmaceutical wholesaler that holds inventory on its own account and completes the purchase and sale of surplus and hard-to-obtain medicines between medical institutions. It is also developing AI supply-and-demand forecasting to deliver stable supply at appropriate prices.
