Monitor adherence & understand user pattern
Facilitate adherence monitoring in clinical trials or real-world patient monitoring programs with SmartPilot. This add-on device captures injection events and compares them with treatment schedules in the app, delivering comprehensive insights into patient adherence and usage patterns.
Patients retain the flexibility to inject wherever they prefer, as the SmartPilot operates effectively both with and without an active app connection, ensuring no loss of any important data. After each injection, data is recorded and stored in the SmartPilot's local memory. It is then automatically transferred via Bluetooth® to the app when a connection to the app is established, providing continuity and reliability in data tracking.
Data captured by SmartPilot:
- Date and time of injection
- Injection success: In case of unsuccessful injection, SmartPilot provides detailed insights of handling errors such as partial injection or insufficient holding time
- The information from the YpsoMate NFC-based label, such as drug type, expiry date, batch/lot number, production date (optional feature)

Visual and audible feedback of the SmartPilot indicated the battery status and the app informs the user when the battery is low or empty.
Supporting correct drug use
The YpsoMate NFC – based label is an optional feature and works even when the patient performs an injection without connection to the app.
After inserting YpsoMate into the SmartPilot, the device provides visual and audible feedback, along with app-based messages, informing the patient about the validity of the medication.
The drug product is verified by comparing the drug type, set in the SmartPilot’s injection settings, with the YpsoMate’s NFC-based label.
The expiry date is checked by cross-referencing the current date on SmartPilot with the expiry date from the YpsoMate's NFC-based label.
