Insulet Corporation (symbol: PODD) is a pioneering medical device company headquartered in Billerica, Massachusetts. Founded in 2000, the company is dedicated to improving the lives of people with diabetes through its innovative Omnipod Insulin Management System.

The Omnipod system offers several advantages over multiple daily insulin injections (MDI), including better glycemic control, fewer hypoglycemic events, reduced glycemic variability, and improved quality of life.

The system consists of only two parts that communicate wirelessly, streamlining the user experience.
Since its approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in 2005, the Omnipod has been adopted by approximately 425,000 insulin-dependent diabetics worldwide. This level of adoption underscores the effectiveness and user satisfaction associated with Insulet's flagship product. The Omnipod is notable for its disposable, smartphone-controlled insulin infusion device, which enhances the convenience and flexibility of insulin therapy.
Insulet continues to innovate and expand its product offerings. The company is currently engaged in multiple projects aimed at further improving diabetes management and enhancing the quality of life for its users. Financially, Insulet maintains a strong position, driven by robust sales growth and strategic partnerships that support its mission.
