Veritag, a blockchain pharma traceability platform Trust Every Pill. Prove It On-Chain

Veritag is a blockchain pharma traceability platform we designed and engineered for a pharmaceutical client in India. It gives every pack a unique identity, anchors each handoff to a tamper-proof ledger and lets anyone verify authenticity with a scan.

Product: Blockchain traceability platform
Platform: Web console, scan PWA
Our role: Discovery to launch, ongoing support
Status: Pilot

Built for Indian Pharma

Domestic compliance and Tier 2 and Tier 3 manufacturers, not a generic global serialization tool retrofitted.

Tamper-Proof by Design

Every handoff anchored to an immutable ledger, a provenance record that can't be quietly rewritten.

Trust at the Pack

A single scan proves authenticity to a distributor, a pharmacist or a patient, anywhere in the chain.

The challenge

Pharma Supply Chains Ran on Trust Nobody Could Prove

Our client makes medicines that pass through many hands before they reach a patient. At every step, authenticity rested on paperwork rather than proof.

Counterfeits Slip In

And in pharma, that costs lives, not just revenue.
Serialization Is a Burden

Especially for smaller manufacturers without enterprise tooling.
Paper Trails Are Easily Faked

And impossible to audit at the speed a recall demands.
Patients Can't Verify

There's no simple way to confirm what they're actually taking.

Today

Paper

trails, easily faked

With Veritag

On-chain

and tamper-proof

From "trust us" to "verify it", for every pack.

What we built

Pharma Traceability You Can Prove, From Plant to Patient

Four capabilities working as one platform: a verifiable identity for every unit, anchored to an immutable chain.

Pack Serialization

A unique, scannable identity for every unit, down to the individual pack, not just the batch.

On-Chain Provenance

Every handoff written to an immutable, tamper-proof ledger that nobody can quietly rewrite.

End-to-End Tracking

Follow each pack from manufacturer to distributor to pharmacy, with chain of custody visible in real time.

Patient Verification

A simple scan confirms authenticity for a pharmacist, a regulator or a patient, anywhere.

Under the hood

A Blockchain Traceability Architecture Built for Verifiable Trust

Veritag pairs a fast off-chain application with a permissioned ledger, so provenance is both performant and tamper-proof.

Our role

One Team, From Idea to Live Product

Ailoitte owned the full build for our client, so there was a single team accountable for the product.

Product discovery Supply chain mapping, on-chain model and ledger choice
UX and UI design Manufacturer console and consumer scan experience
Blockchain engineering Hyperledger Fabric network, smart contracts and event log
Platform engineering Serialization service, QR engine and REST API
Cloud, QA and support Containerized deploy, QA and testing, and ongoing operations

How the Build Ran

Discovery Weeks 1 to 2. Scope, on-chain model and ledger choice locked.
Design Weeks 3 to 5. Manufacturer console and scan flows.
MVP build Weeks 6 to 14. Serialization, ledger and verification working end to end.
Pilot and scale Week 15 onward. Pilot users, monitoring and ongoing support.

FAQ

What Enterprise Teams Ask Us First

What is Veritag?

Veritag is a blockchain pharma traceability platform. It gives every pack a unique, scannable identity, anchors each handoff from manufacturer to distributor to pharmacy on a tamper-proof ledger, and lets anyone verify authenticity with a single scan. It is the kind of product our blockchain development team builds end to end.

Who built Veritag?

Ailoitte designed and engineered Veritag for a pharmaceutical client in India, under the Ailoitte Excellence Program. The client’s name stays confidential under NDA. Our team covered discovery, UI/UX design, the serialization service, the blockchain layer and cloud operations. You can see the other products in the program at Ailoitte Labs.

Can you build a traceability platform for our supply chain?

Yes. Veritag shows the pattern for pharma, and we adapt the serialization, ledger and verification flow to your goods, regulations and supply chain partners. That works for food, luxury goods, retail and logistics as well. See our logistics software development and retail and eCommerce work.

Which blockchain does Veritag use?

For enterprise supply chains we default to a permissioned ledger such as Hyperledger Fabric. It gives tamper-proof provenance without public-chain cost or exposure. The exact ledger is decided with you during discovery, based on your performance, governance and cost needs. New to the space? Read what is Web3.

How does a patient or pharmacist verify a pack?

They scan the QR code on the pack with their phone camera. A consumer scan web app opens without any download and shows whether the pack is authentic and where it has been. It is built as a progressive web app, the same approach we use in web application development.

Is Veritag built for Indian pharma regulations?

Yes. Veritag was designed around domestic compliance needs and for Tier 2 and Tier 3 manufacturers, rather than as a global serialization tool retrofitted for India. The specific rules each client must meet are mapped during discovery. Our healthcare software development team brings the regulated-industry experience.

Can it connect to our ERP, IoT sensors or logistics systems?

Yes. The REST API and serialization service connect to ERP and warehouse systems, and we can add IoT data such as cold-chain temperature readings to the same chain of custody. See our IoT development services and AI in supply chain.

How long does a build like this take, and who owns the IP?

We start with a focused strategic discovery to lock scope and the on-chain model, then build a working MVP, typically within a few months. Scope, timeline and cost are clear before we start. You own the codebase, the smart contracts and the architecture fully, with no vendor lock-in.

Tell Us What You Are Building

One 30 minute call, then a technical plan and an exact price with a fixed scope and a date. A team that has shipped a blockchain traceability platform should also tell you when you do not need a custom build. If an off the shelf model would serve you better, we will say so on that call.
