Wimba

What Wimba does

WIMBA Poland Sp. z o.o. is a Krakow-based veterinary medical device company founded in 2022 that designs and manufactures custom 3D-printed orthopedic devices and wound care products for dogs and cats. The company serves veterinary professionals — veterinarians, neurologists, orthopedic surgeons, physiotherapists, and rehabilitation specialists — through a global network of more than 320 certified clinics across 30+ countries, with over 3,000 clinical cases supported. Its devices address canine and feline orthopedic conditions including carpal hyperextension, tarsal hyperextension, cranial cruciate ligament (ACL) ruptures, osteoarthritis, cervical spine instability, and post-surgical wound care, plus prophylactic use in tripod (three-legged) pets.

WIMBA's product portfolio is structured in two tiers: WIMBA Go (Carpus, Tarsus, and Cervical Collar orthoses ordered via two photos plus seven manual measurements, 10-business-day production) and WIMBA Pro (advanced multiplanar orthoses and Stifle orthoses requiring WimbaSCAN 3D scanning, 15-business-day production). All devices are manufactured in-house using HP Multi Jet Fusion (MJF) 3D printing technology with thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) materials, achieving 0.2mm precision. Proprietary technology components include the WimbaSCAN smartphone-based 3D scanning workflow using patterned sleeves and printed mats, the WIMBA Tokens System of interchangeable color-coded components for adjustable range of motion during progressive rehabilitation, and TPU lattice structure inserts for breathability and pressure distribution. A separate WIMBA Wound Care sub-brand offers 3D-printed protective spacers (Donut, Dome, Gradient Dome, Donut Wings, Care Sticks) reusable up to five times. The WimbaAPP mobile application (iOS and Android) handles order submission, case management, and order tracking for certified providers.

WIMBA operates a B2B2C business model in which certified veterinary clinics order custom orthoses on behalf of pet owners via WimbaAPP, with finished devices shipped directly to the ordering clinic for fitting (EU: 1-3 days; UK and USA: 3-10 days). Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. Revenue streams comprise one-time device sales (Go and Pro tiers), hardware sales of reusable wound care spacers (also distributed via veterinary wholesalers), and the WIMBA Box scanning toolkit required for Pro provider certification. The company has secured approximately PLN 13.4 million in combined EU grant funding across the FENG and FEMP European Regional Development Fund programs (2021-2027), supporting industrialization of patented production technology and development of an AI-powered "Wimba Diagnostics" vision system with IoT-enabled orthoses.

Revenue model

1. Custom 3D-Printed Veterinary Orthotics (One-Time Device Purchase): Veterinary clinics order custom orthoses (Carpus, Tarsus, Stifle, Cervical Collar) on behalf of pet owners. Devices are priced per-unit and ordered through WimbaAPP. WIMBA Go devices use photo + measurement ordering; WIMBA Pro devices require WimbaSCAN and the WIMBA Box scanning kit. Production lead time is 10 business days for Go and 15 business days for Pro devices. FastTrack option available for urgent cases. Pet owners access products exclusively through certified WIMBA Provider veterinary clinics.
2. WIMBA Wound Care Protective Spacers: Reusable 3D-printed wound care spacers (Donut, Dome, Gradient Dome, Donut Wings, Care Sticks) sold to veterinary clinics and distributors worldwide. Each spacer can be reused up to 5 times, creating a recurring purchase cycle for consumable/periodic replacement needs.
3. WIMBA Provider Certification and Box Kit: Veterinary clinics become certified WIMBA Providers (Pro tier) by obtaining the WIMBA Box, which contains specialized scanning tools including printed mats, auto dollies, patterned sleeves, and other accessories required for WimbaSCAN-based orthotic creation. This represents a one-time equipment/subscription relationship.
