3D printed orthotics that will change the way you walk
About SOLS
SOLS was a technology startup that specialized in 3D-printed, custom-fit orthotics. The company developed a platform that allowed healthcare providers to scan a patient's foot using an iPad and then generate a 3D model for a custom insole. This model was then sent to a 3D printing facility, and the final product was shipped to the provider.
The business model was B2B, targeting podiatrists and other healthcare professionals who would then offer the custom insoles to their patients. SOLS aimed to disrupt the traditional orthotics industry by providing a faster, more accurate, and cost-effective solution compared to traditional methods of creating custom insoles.
In 2017, SOLS was acquired by Aetrex Worldwide, a leader in foot scanning technology and orthotics. The acquisition allowed Aetrex to integrate SOLS's 3D printing technology into its own Albert scanner and expand its offerings in the custom orthotics market.
