Calibra Medical

Calibra Medical, Inc. was a Redwood City, California medical device company founded in 2004 to make mealtime insulin therapy simpler and more discreet. Its product was the Finesse "patch-pen", a fully mechanical, three-day wearable bolus insulin delivery patch (roughly 2 x 1 x 0.25 inches, 200-unit reservoir, no batteries, display, or handheld controller) dosed by pressing two buttons. Backed by Canaan Partners, Frazier Healthcare Partners, Intersouth Partners, Skyline Ventures, and Three Arch Partners, the company raised approximately $61.5M before Johnson & Johnson acquired it in a reported $77M all-cash deal in 2012, folding it into the J&J Diabetes Care Companies. J&J rebranded the device OneTouch Via but never commercially launched it, and on July 17, 2018 sold select Calibra Medical assets and an exclusive worldwide license to Swiss wearable-insulin firm CeQur. Calibra Medical no longer operates as an independent company: it publishes no developer portal, no API, and no public source repositories, and the calibramedical.com domain now resolves to a parked "domain may be for sale" page. This profile is retained as a historical medical-device company record with no API surface.

Calibra Medical is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Medical Devices, Diabetes, Insulin Delivery, and Health.

scored 2026-09-08 · rubric v0.20.0
Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Health regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/calibra-medical: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
