Kube Innovation Inc

What Kube Innovation Inc does

Kube Innovation Inc. is a Montreal-based dental technology company founded in 2015 by mechanical engineer Frederik Marcil (with co-founder and denturist Jocelyn Vignola) that manufactures and sells the Innobyte, a proprietary digital gnathodynamometer designed to measure absolute bite force in newtons. The device measures maximal bite force in under three seconds with stated 95% accuracy and precision, and the current Bilateral Innobyte Clinical Package distinguishes left- and right-side bite forces and combined total force. The unit is a standalone instrument with an integrated LED display, requiring no external computer or software integration; biocompatibility is cleared with the FDA and Health Canada, and the device itself is approved by Health Canada for clinical and research use.

The company's revenue model is hardware-led: a one-time US$4,699 purchase of the Clinical Package (device, mouthpiece, cables, power adapter, and 100 disposable covers), supplemented by razor-and-blade recurring revenue from replacement bilateral mouthpieces (US$1,165, replaced every 1,000 measurements) and single-patient mouthpiece protector covers (US$49.95 per 100), plus low-dollar reference materials for patient education. Distribution is hybrid — direct e-commerce through the company's own storefront alongside a regional distributor network accessed via a 'Where to Buy' locator. Go-to-market combines sales-led outreach (free 30-minute virtual demos, ROI calculator), content marketing (Innobyte Academy webinars with CE credits, a multilingual video library, scientific database, digital dentistry blog), and event participation at major dental congresses (e.g., The Second International Zygomax Congress in Athens 2026, COMPLEXITIEZ 2026 in New York).

The company targets a fragmented base of dental professionals across multiple verticals — general dentists, implantologists, prosthodontists, denturists, dental researchers, and practitioners using neuromodulators — emphasizing use cases such as implant loading risk assessment, treatment-need demonstration to drive case acceptance, denture and restorative treatment planning, and bruxism/TMD monitoring. Geographic footprint spans Canada, the United States, Europe, and parts of Asia. The company remains private and small (1-10 employees), with one disclosed early-stage funding round in 2017 from Campus des Technologies de la Santé (CTS Healthcare) and Desjardins Venture Capital.

Revenue model

1. Device Sales: Primary revenue from selling the Bilateral Innobyte Clinical Package, which includes the device, cables, mouthpiece, and box of 100 mouthpiece covers. One-time hardware purchase model.
2. Mouthpiece Sales: Replacement mouthpieces sold separately. The bilateral mouthpiece is required for device operation and needs replacement after 1000 measurements.
3. Consumables: Mouthpiece protectors (disposable covers) sold in boxes of 100. These are single-use consumables that should be exchanged after every patient's bite assessment.
4. Reference Materials: Bite Force Reference Value Chart Note Pads sold as supplementary materials to help explain Innobyte results to patients.

Core offering

Kube Innovation manufactures and sells the Innobyte, a proprietary digital gnathodynamometer that measures a patient's maximum absolute bite force in newtons (N) with 95% accuracy and precision. The Bilateral Innobyte device measures distinct left- and right-side bite force values along with combined total force, displaying results on its built-in LED display in under 3 seconds without any external software or computer integration. The company supplements device sales with replacement mouthpieces, disposable mouthpiece protectors, and patient education reference materials sold through its own e-commerce shop and a global network of regional distributors.

Product overview

Kube Innovation offers the Innobyte bite force measurement device portfolio, consisting of the core Bilateral Innobyte clinical package as the primary offering, supplemented by replacement mouthpieces, disposable consumable protective covers, and patient education reference materials. The device is a dental technology tool that measures absolute bite force in Newtons using proprietary sensor technology, displaying results directly on its built-in LED display without requiring external devices. The bilateral configuration measures distinct force values for the left and right sides of the patient's bite, while accessories include the bilateral mouthpiece with positioning guidances and the 100-count disposable mouthpiece protectors for infection control between patients.

Functional benefit

Brands

• Innobyte: The Innobyte is the company's flagship bite force measurement device for dental applications. It measures absolute bite force in newtons and is used by dentists for treatment planning, implant assessment, and patient communication.

Products and services

• Bilateral Innobyte Clinical Package The primary bite force measurement device that measures distinct bite force values for the left and right side of a patient's bite, indicating bilateral and combined total force in Newtons. The clinical package includes the device, bilateral mouthpiece, cables, USB charging cable, wall power adapter, and 100 disposable mouthpiece covers. Sold to dental professionals for use in treatment planning, implant assessment, and patient communication.
• Bilateral Mouthpiece (Replacement) Replacement bilateral mouthpiece with frontal and lateral guidances for accurate bite force measurement positioning. Must be replaced after 1,000 measurements. Sold to dental practices that already own the Innobyte device.
• Mouthpiece Protectors Disposable protective covers for the Innobyte mouthpiece. Each box contains 100 protectors. Replaced after each patient's bite assessment to prevent cross-contamination. Sold to dental practices for infection control between patients.
• Bite Force Reference Value Chart | Note Pad A reference chart pad with 50 pages that helps clinicians clearly explain Innobyte measurement results to patients. Used to demonstrate the need for treatment and show bite force results before and after neuromodulators, implants, and other treatments. Sold to dental professionals as patient communication material.

Direct peers

• Tekscan: Maker of T-Scan, the established digital occlusal analysis system that measures timing and force distribution across the dental arch — the closest direct competitor to Innobyte in the dental bite-force/occlusion workflow.
• Bausch (OccluSense): Bausch's OccluSense is a paper-thin digital occlusal sensor used chairside in dental practices; explicitly named as an adjacent solution that does not currently offer absolute-newton force readouts like Innobyte.

Broad incumbents

• Dentsply Sirona: Largest global dental equipment and consumables manufacturer; competing broadly across restorative, implant, and digital dentistry workflows where Innobyte is sold.
• Envista Holdings: Diversified dental products company (KaVo Kerr, Nobel Biocare, Ormco) with overlapping presence in dental diagnostics, implants, and restorative treatment — the same clinical buyers Kube targets.
• ACTEON Group: Dental imaging and device manufacturer across diagnostics, endodontics, and prosthetics; comparable as a specialty dental equipment vendor serving the same practitioner call points.
• Planmeca: Privately held dental equipment OEM (chairs, imaging, CAD/CAM); relevant as an established dental device manufacturer operating in the same clinical and distribution ecosystem.
• Straumann Group: Global leader in dental implants and prosthetics; directly relevant because Innobyte is used by implantologists for loading decisions and many testimonials come from implant clinics.

Emerging players

• 3Shape: Digital dentistry scanning and CAD/CAM platform targeting restorative and implant workflows; an adjacent digital-dentistry enabler that practices may choose alongside or instead of bite-force measurement.
• VideaHealth: AI-powered dental imaging diagnostics vendor; comparable as an emerging dental-AI/diagnostic technology being adopted by the same general-dentist and DSOs segment.
• Pearl: Dental AI company providing radiographic interpretation tools used chairside by general dentists; comparable as an emerging diagnostic technology targeting the same practitioner call points and serving as a benchmark for digital-dentistry SaaS economics.
