Problem
Insulin, GLP‑1 pens, EpiPens and other temperature‑sensitive injectable medications lose potency when exposed to extreme heat, cold, or light, leading to ineffective dosing and potential health risks. Maintaining proper storage conditions while traveling or during daily activities is difficult without bulky, powered refrigeration devices.
Solution
VIVI offers a line of patented, battery‑free insulated cases that protect insulin pens, GLP‑1 pens, EpiPens, and other temperature‑sensitive medication devices from extreme temperatures and light. The passive thermal insulation uses a heat‑absorbing material originally developed for aerospace, providing continuous 24/7/365 protection without the need for charging, ice packs, or refrigeration. Select models (VIVI Cap Smart) add Bluetooth connectivity and a built‑in display that tracks time since the last injection and syncs with a mobile app for dose logging, reminders, and data export. All cases are TSA‑compliant, pocket‑sized, and designed for long‑term reuse, delivering reliable medication stability for users on the go.
Target Audience
People who use insulin, GLP‑1 analogues, or epinephrine auto‑injectors—including individuals with diabetes, caregivers, and allergy patients—who need reliable temperature control during daily life, travel, or outdoor activities.
