Rastro vs. Aesthetic Record
EMR inventory, or inventory in your pocket?
Aesthetic Record is an EMR built for aesthetic practices, and its inventory handles injectables: stock by the unit, lots chosen when charting, and transfers between clinics. Rastro is narrower. It's an iPhone app that scans boxes in, works offline, and has no account required.

Where each one fits
Charting in Aesthetic Record?
Charting a treatment there deducts the stock, so its inventory may be all you need.
Want to scan, not type?
Rastro reads the lot and expiration date from the box's barcode, so receiving a delivery is one scan per box.
Working across practices?
Rastro keeps your own count of stock across the places you work, whatever software each practice runs.
