Aumet

Aumet is a healthcare technology company that builds software for pharmaceutical procurement, inventory management and B2B commerce. Its platform links pharmacies, pharmaceutical manufacturers, distributors and warehouses so that ordering, stock visibility and purchasing decisions can be handled digitally, with data exchanged among the parties. The company describes itself as a Saudi company originally established in the United States, operating across Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Egypt, Oman and the wider Gulf, with offices in Jordan, Egypt, Oman and Saudi Arabia.

The product line is organised in three layers. Pulse is a cloud-based system for individual pharmacies that combines point of sale, inventory management, one-click supplier ordering through a marketplace and peer-to-peer sales between pharmacies, plus AI-based demand forecasting and automated reordering. It sends alerts for low stock and approaching expiry, allows comparison of live distributor offers, supports selling excess stock to nearby pharmacies, and continues to process point-of-sale transactions offline, syncing inventory when connectivity returns. Chain extends centralised procurement and multi-branch decision-making to pharmacy groups. Enterprise is a procurement operating system aimed at hospitals, ministries of health and national healthcare systems.

Alongside the pharmacy management stack, Aumet operates a mobile marketplace app for pharmacists that provides supplier catalogues, discounts and bonuses from partner warehouses, order tracking from warehouse to pharmacy, direct chat with distributors and price comparison. The app is free and available in Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Egypt and Oman, with a Premium tier offering best-seller data, alternative-product pricing, out-of-stock notifications and active-ingredient search. The pharmacy solution is stated to be certified under Saudi government regulations including Rasd, Wasfati and the Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority.

Founding story

Aumet was founded in 2016 by Yahya Aqel, Adel Haddad and Shahed Jaber, with Yahya Aqel serving as CEO and co-founder and Adel Haddad as co-founder.

Business model

Aumet sells software to healthcare providers and operates a B2B marketplace connecting pharmacies with pharmaceutical suppliers and warehouses. Pulse is offered on a self-serve basis with a free trial requiring no card, setup or onboarding calls, and pharmacies register with a phone number. The marketplace app for pharmacies is free, with a Premium tier of additional features, while enterprise deployments are contracted with hospitals, ministries and national health systems.

Traction

The company reports more than 12,000 pharmacies across Jordan, Egypt and Saudi Arabia, over 1,000 connected pharmaceutical suppliers, more than $1 billion in gross merchandise value, over five million transactions annually, and more than 100,000 products listed with over 160 warehouses on the marketplace app. Earlier, at the time of the 2023 pre-Series A, it served over 10,000 pharmacies across Saudi Arabia, Jordan and Egypt. Its Enterprise product was first deployed at Al-Basheer Hospital, the largest hospital in Jordan, and has scaled to 32 hospitals, more than 500 medical centres and over 18 medical warehouses; Jordan's Minister of Health is quoted saying real-time medicine redistribution between hospitals saved 2.3 million Jordanian dinars in three months.

Latest developments

In May 2026 Aumet announced the close of a $12 million Series A led by Emkan Capital, with Qatar Development Bank, SABAH Fund (Azerbaijan) and AAIC participating alongside existing investors Shorooq Partners and Right Side Capital Management and strategic healthcare investors Cigalah Group and Salehiya Trading Company. Proceeds are directed at expanding AI capabilities, scaling Pulse globally, growing enterprise deployments and entering new GCC and international markets. The company also signed an agreement with Presight, an Abu Dhabi-based AI company, to scale its AI procurement system across Jordan's public healthcare system.
