First Removable 2-Part Design Targets $3 Billion "Almost-Pumper" Market with Expected Q2 2026 initial deployment.
Key Milestones & Investment Highlights:
FDA 510(k) Clearance Achieved: Pivot™ pump now cleared for commercial sale in the U.S. - major de-risking event unlocking revenue path.
First-in-Class Removable Tubeless Patch Pump: 3 mL detachable reservoir; no battery recharging required; removable for showering, sports or discretion; quick bolus button without a separate controller.
