What Modular Medical does

Modular Medical, Inc. (NASDAQ: MODD) is a publicly traded medical device company developing insulin delivery technology for adults with insulin-dependent diabetes. Founded in 2015 by Paul DiPerna, the company became publicly traded via a reverse merger in 2017 and is headquartered in San Diego, California. Its core products are the MODD1 insulin pump and the newly FDA-cleared Pivot tubeless insulin patch pump — a two-part removable system with a 3 mL reservoir that requires no battery recharging and supports smartphone connectivity for data sharing with care teams. The Pivot is the second fully electronic, tubeless insulin pump on the U.S. market, designed around micro-pumping technology protected by an IP portfolio of over 70 patents.

The company's business model is hardware sales of the Pivot pump and recurring disposable cartridges and infusion sets, distributed through a phased rollout to high-volume endocrinology practices supplemented by a direct-to-patient education and demand-generation website (PivotPump.com). It targets the 'almost-pumper' segment — the roughly 70% of insulin-dependent U.S. adults currently on multiple daily injections who have not adopted pump therapy — addressing a market the company sizes at approximately $3 billion within an $8 billion global insulin pump opportunity. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed.

As of mid-2026, Modular Medical is in transition from development-stage to commercial-stage following the Pivot's FDA 510(k) clearance in April 2026 and first commercial shipments in June 2026. Revenue is not yet disclosed, the company is unprofitable, and it has funded operations through multiple post-IPO equity offerings totaling approximately $34 million across 2024-2026. Geographic expansion to Europe is being prepared via CE Mark submission and ISO 13485 certification with BSI, targeted for early 2027, supported by a newly appointed Head of International Operations.

Core offering

Modular Medical designs, develops, and manufactures insulin delivery devices — primarily the Pivot tubeless insulin patch pump (FDA-cleared April 2026, commercial availability June 2026) and the MODD1 insulin pump — for adults with insulin-dependent diabetes who are transitioning from multiple daily injections to pump therapy. The company sells the pump hardware along with disposable cartridges and infusion sets, targeting the "almost-pumper" segment that finds traditional pumps too complex or costly.

Product overview

Modular Medical offers two insulin delivery products: the MODD1 insulin pump and the Pivot tubeless insulin patch pump. The MODD1 is designed for simplicity to facilitate transition from manual injections, with data sharing capabilities for care teams. The Pivot is a newer, FDA-cleared tubeless patch pump featuring a removable two-part design with a 3 mL reservoir that requires no battery recharging. The Pivot represents the company's transition from development-stage to commercial-stage following its June 2026 launch.
