T1D1 - Bolus calculation
Diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes at just 13 years old, Drew faced the daunting task of managing insulin dosages and rose to the challenge by creating an app to help not only himself but also thousands of others worldwide.
After the initial success, Comerge helped Drew together with Diabetes Center Berne to bring the app to a professional level and paved the way to FDA clearance. So that also in the future, people with Type 1 Diabetes are empowered from day one.
The Challenge
Insulin dosing is like a maths test
There are millions of people with Type 1 Diabetes in the world, numbers increasing. Whether residing in rural or underprivileged areas or lacking the financial means to afford sophisticated tools, everyone shares the fundamental need for precise insulin injections throughout the day. Tailoring each dosage to individual factors such as insulin sensitivity, carb ratio, and other crucial data provided by medical professionals remains essential for effectively managing this chronic condition.
The Idea
Free bolus calculator
Drew's original vision, which continues to guide his
mission, is to offer an effortlessly intuitive tool for
determining the perfect insulin dosage (bolus) on the
smartphone.
This solution is not only user-friendly
but also completely free and accessible to everyone. Truly
making the lives of people with diabetes simpler!
The Solution
Support from day 1
By taking Drew's app up and further, Comerge ensures
that users can easily input all patient-specific parameters.
With input of current glucose levels and carb intake,
the app delivers accurate bolus calculations tailored to
individual requirements. Furthermore, Comerge's
comprehensive technical documentation has paved the path for
FDA clearance.

Testimonial
It is very rare to find a development team that is best-in-class on the technical side but also sees the value in your goal and buys into your project's mission as a true thought partner. The entire team at Comerge, starting with Till, has backed the T1D1 project with the understanding that the basic needs of those newly diagnosed with Type One Diabetes are simply not being met. It has been a true pleasure working with our friends at Comerge and we look forward to a lasting partnership as we see T1D1 through FDA clearance and then European and finally worldwide release!
