BitMed is the closest like-for-like competitor Nesayo has — both are cloud pharmacy tools with FEFO batch selection and Schedule H1 logging at billing. The real difference is what's free and what BitMed doesn't list on its own site: voice billing, prescription photo scan, and autonomous AI agents.
No download to install and no demo call to book: you can drive Nesayo right now — the real product on a sample pharmacy, no signup.

Most of the software pharmacies compare Nesayo against is general retail billing or a decades-old desktop product retrofitted for the cloud. BitMed is different — it's built specifically for pharmacies, it lists FEFO batch selection and an automatic Schedule H1 register on its features page, and it markets itself as cloud software with offline support. On the pharmacy-specific compliance features, the two products are making similar claims. That makes this comparison mostly about what sits outside that shared core, plus price.
One caution on numbers: BitMed's own site states two different figures for its medicine database size in different places (one number on the homepage, a different one on the features and pricing pages). We're not going to pick one and quote it as fact — it's their inconsistency to resolve, not something we can verify from outside. Nesayo's catalogue count, 2,54,034 medicines, is one number because it's the row count in our own database.
BitMed's Starter plan is ₹999/month for one store with unlimited users, moving to ₹1,999/month for up to three stores and ₹3,999/month for unlimited stores (all as of September 2026, per bitmed.in/pricing, GST extra where applicable). There's a 30-day trial with no credit card, but no free-forever tier — once the trial ends, billing requires a paid plan.
Nesayo's billing — GST invoicing, the medicine catalogue, batch and expiry tracking, WhatsApp bills — is free forever, no trial clock, no card. If a pharmacy wants the AI layer (voice billing, prescription photo scan, and the five autonomous agents) on top, that's the Full plan at ₹549/month as of October 2026, and new pharmacies get it free for their first month. For a pharmacy that only needs FEFO, H1 logging at billing and GST billing — the features BitMed's Starter plan covers — Nesayo's free tier already covers the same ground at ₹0/month.
As of September 2026, BitMed's public pages don't list voice billing, prescription photo scan, Tally export, e-invoice generation, a dedicated mobile app, or distributor ordering. We're stating this as what's absent from their public documentation, not as something the product can't do — vendors update their sites, and this is worth re-checking directly with BitMed before deciding.
Nesayo covers four of them: voice billing in English, Hindi and Hinglish (voice beta) for a counter clerk mid-queue, AI-assisted prescription photo scanning that drafts a bill from a photo, Tally export for accountants, and distributor ordering with a WhatsApp confirmation link sent per purchase order. It does not offer e-invoice generation yet, and instead of an app-store app it installs from the browser as a PWA. On top of those, the five autonomous agents (Morning Briefing, Expiry Guard, Refill Radar, Stock Sense, Payment Advisor) run on a schedule without anyone asking them to.
A multi-store chain that specifically wants a central product master across stores, plus a straightforward monthly quote scaled to store count, may find BitMed's tiered pricing (Starter / Professional / Enterprise) easier to budget against than evaluating what an AI layer is worth to a specific shop. BitMed's 30-day, no-card trial is also a genuinely low-friction way to test batch, FEFO and H1-register behaviour against a shop's own stock before committing either way — and running it alongside a free Nesayo signup costs nothing but time.
If your pharmacy is on BitMed mainly for FEFO, Schedule H1 logging, and GST billing, Nesayo's free billing tier covers the same ground at ₹0/month instead of BitMed's ₹999/month Starter plan (as of September 2026). If you also want voice billing, prescription photo scan, or the autonomous agents — none of which are listed on BitMed's site as of September 2026 — Nesayo's optional Full plan adds them for ₹549/month (as of October 2026), and new pharmacies get it free for their first month.
Not for pure billing — Nesayo's billing tier is free forever, while BitMed's cheapest plan is ₹999/month for one store (as of September 2026, per bitmed.in/pricing). BitMed does offer a 30-day free trial with no credit card, which Nesayo's free-forever tier makes unnecessary for the billing features it covers.
Yes, per bitmed.in/features BitMed lists automatic FEFO batch selection and an automatic Schedule H1 register during billing — this is the pharmacy-specific ground the two products share, unlike a generic billing tool with no pharmacy features at all. Nesayo logs each H1 sale at billing with the patient, prescriber, medicine, batch and quantity; it does not record the prescriber's address yet, so the pharmacist adds it.
Not as of September 2026, per bitmed.in's public feature and pricing pages — neither is listed. Nesayo supports voice billing in English, Hindi and Hinglish (voice beta) and AI-assisted prescription photo scanning that drafts a bill from a photo. Vendors update their sites, so it's worth checking BitMed directly if this matters to your decision.
We can't state a confirmed figure — bitmed.in shows one number on its homepage and a different number on its features and pricing pages, and we're not picking one to quote as fact. Nesayo's own catalogue is 2,54,034 medicines, a single number because it's the actual row count in our database.
Yes — BitMed's Professional plan (₹1,999/month, up to 3 stores) and Enterprise plan (₹3,999/month, unlimited stores) include a central product master across stores, per bitmed.in/pricing as of September 2026. Nesayo also supports multiple stores under one account.
Yes. Export your stock list from BitMed as CSV or Excel and upload it to Nesayo — the import matches columns by what the header means rather than requiring an exact template, and fills in catalogue details like manufacturer, HSN and GST for medicine names it recognises.
They solve different problems. BitMed's trial is time-limited — 30 days, then a paid plan starting at ₹999/month (as of September 2026). Nesayo's billing tier has no time limit at all; it's free forever. If you want to compare the two side by side on your own stock, running a BitMed trial alongside a free Nesayo signup costs nothing and isn't time-boxed on the Nesayo side.
