About Beta Bionics
Beta Bionics, Inc. is a medical technology company dedicated to bringing innovative type 1 diabetes management solutions to the many, not the few. We are committed to bringing better access to better solutions – and a better life for those living with diabetes – with the world’s first bionic pancreas called the iLet. The iLet Bionic Pancreas is the first and only insulin delivery system that does not require carb counting*, bolusing, correction factors, or pre-set basal rates. The only number needed to get started with the iLet Bionic Pancreas is a user’s weight – the iLet does the rest. The iLet lets users “Go Bionic” with their diabetes management.
*User must be carb aware.
