Founder Speaks-
"Due to pandemic, there has been a massive increase in demand for digital solutions from people with Type 2 Diabetes as they are at a risk of severe illness if impacted by COVID-19. Staying indoors because of frequent lockdowns and the anxiety has also led to an increase in their glucose levels. Both these factors combined with a surge in familiarity with digital solutions has led to an increase in demand for digital therapies."
