The problem
Indian households spend roughly ₹65,000 crore every year on out-of-pocket medicine costs. A meaningful slice of that is going toward branded drugs when the exact same molecule — same active ingredient, same dosage, same CDSCO approval — is sitting in a Jan Aushadhi store for a fraction of the price. Dolo-650 retails at ₹32 a strip; the Jan Aushadhi paracetamol is ₹4.90. The cheaper medicine isn't the issue. Nobody tells the patient it's there.
We built Agada to fix that. Snap a photo of the strip. Three seconds later you know if it's CDSCO-registered, what it actually does, and what the cheaper version costs. No login. No app install. Free.
Here's how the whole thing fits together.
