Digi-Prex is a seven-month-old Indian startup that operates a WhatsApp-based subscription pharmacy in Hyderabad serving patients with chronic diseases. Patients share prescriptions via WhatsApp and Digi-Prex delivers medications on a recurring cycle while tracking refills and checking patient improvements. The company has amassed thousands of customers in Hyderabad and works with physicians, pharmacies, and medicine distributors to secure lower-cost supplies and share margins with partners. Digi-Prex undercuts over-the-counter pricing to offer discounted medicines and emphasizes partnerships to reach patients in distant neighborhoods. The startup raised $5.5M in a seed round from prominent investors and will use the capital to expand and enhance services. Planned uses include expanding to 10 Indian cities and providing patients with access to better physicians and more information about their diseases.
