Walking with a prosthetic leg is more than taking steps; it’s about balance, comfort, and moving efficiently. 🦾

In our latest blog, we dive into why gait matters, common challenges, and how the right fit can make every step feel natural.

We're excited to welcome Alexandra Lind to the Vessl team!πŸ™Œ

She'll be leading Quality Assurance and Regulatory Affairs, building out our Quality Management System, and steering our regulatory strategy as we bring Kinn to market.

Alex has spent her career in medical devices and healthcare, working on everything from neurosurgical robotics to sterilization engineering and quality improvement in home care. Her co-op placements took her through places like Canada Post and Toyota, but it's the healthcare sector where she's planted her roots.

What brought her to Vessl? A combination of her passion for healthcare engineering and personal ties to the diabetes community. She's excited to work with a company that's tackling meaningful problems with a patient-first mindset, and she loves that we're prioritizing quality from the earliest stages.

Outside of work, Alex competes in dog agility trials with Archie, her Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever. They're constantly learning new skills and staying sharp together.
We're thrilled to have her on board.

Say hi to her in the comments!πŸ™‹πŸ»β€β™€οΈ

What if the smartest solution didn't need sensors or motors?πŸ”§

Kinn uses body weight and kinetic energy to adjust the socket fit automatically. No batteries. No charging. No calibration. Just mechanical engineering doing what it's built to do.

The system adapts to volume changes in real time using the wearer's own movement. Prosthetists can adjust pressure limits to personalize fit for each patient, and the entire system integrates into existing clinical workflows without added complexity.

Not every problem needs electronics. Sometimes the most reliable solution is purely mechanical. One less thing to charge. One less thing to maintain. Just a consistent fit when patients need it most.

Built to work. Built to last. ✨

We're excited to welcome Caroline to the Vessl team! πŸŽ‰ She's a 4th-year biomedical engineering student at the University of Waterloo, originally from Toronto, and she's joining us as a Mechanical Engineering Co-op.

Caroline is passionate about rehabilitation engineering. She's worked with the Orthopedic Surgery Research Group at St. Joe's Hospital in Hamilton on gait analysis studies evaluating patient recovery after hip and knee surgeries. She's also worked at MAKE+, a lab at the BCIT Applied Research Group in Vancouver, developing a low-cost prosthetic hand for children. Right now, she's part of the Neurorehabilitation Lab at Waterloo, doing motion capture and mobility research.

At Vessl, she'll be helping the engineering team design and build mechanical components for the Kinn system, building prototypes and running tests to make sure our designs comply with medical device regulations and standards.

What drew her to Vessl? The mission to make life more comfortable for people using prosthetics. Poor socket fit is a huge issue in the prosthetics field, and she's excited to be part of a team working on a real solution. She's here because she wants to help people regain mobility and independence. Fun fact, Caroline speaks 3 languages.

We're thrilled to have her on board. Say hi to Caroline in the comments! πŸ‘‹

2026 is here. Let's build. ✨

This year is about pushing further. More access to advanced prosthetic care. Better technology in the hands of clinicians. Stronger outcomes for the people who need it most.
Thank you for being part of this journey. Here's to what we'll create together in 2026.

Happy New Year from the Vessl team. 🎊

To the clinicians and collaborators who've been part of our journey this year, happy holidays.πŸŽ„

Thank you for the trust, the feedback, and the shared commitment to advancing prosthetic care. This work only happens because of people like you who show up and push for better.
We hope you're taking time to recharge, celebrate, and enjoy the people who make it all worthwhile.

Here's to what we've built together in 2025 and what's ahead in 2026. Grateful for every one of you. ✨

Cookie decorating, gingerbread engineering, and a team that takes structural integrity very seriously, even with frosting. πŸͺ

We closed out the year at Medical Innovation Xchange's EOY party, and the gingerbread house competition got surprisingly competitive. Turns out precision doesn't take a holiday.

It's been a big year. Celebrating with the people who made it happen felt like the right way to wrap it up. Here's to the team that shows up and builds something real.

On to 2026.πŸŽ‰

There are some prosthetic challenges only amputees truly understand: the subtle shifts, the fatigue, the awkward sounds, the little moments that add up through the day.

We pulled together a few of the most common β€œif you know, you know” experiences that don’t always get talked about but deserve to be seen.

Dive into the full breakdown, link in the comments.πŸ‘‡

What if a prosthetic socket adjusted automatically, without batteries, charging, or daily sock changes?

That's Kinn. Our Automatic Volume Management System utilizes kinetic energy to adapt to limb volume fluctuations in real-time. No manual adjustments. No guesswork. Just consistent fit and pressure distribution throughout the day.
We partnered with Onward Media Group to bring the engineering to life in 3D. This animation breaks down how the kinetic tensioning mechanism works, how shock absorption is built into every step, and why eliminating the sock management routine matters for long-term comfort and mobility.

Kinn isn't just adaptive technology. It's infrastructure for better prosthetic care, designed for prosthetists who need reliability and patients who deserve consistency.

Shoutout to Medical Innovation Xchange for connecting us with the right partners to make this happen.

See how it works. πŸŽ₯

Your residual limb can change 12% in volume throughout the day.

That means adding sock after sock after sock just to keep your prosthetic fitting right. Some people are wearing 10-20 ply by the end of the day when they started with zero.
One person would rather deal with the pain than manage socks. Another had to stop multiple times just getting to work.

Imagine carrying a bag of socks everywhere. Stopping mid-walk to adjust. Pausing your day over and over because your body has changed size. This is the reality. And this is why we're building what we're building.

Sydney breaks it down perfectly in her recent conversation on Sunday sips with Joseph Isosaki πŸŽ₯

Happy Thanksgiving. πŸ¦ƒ

To the partners advancing prosthetic technology alongside us, the investors backing our vision, the advisors guiding us forward, the fabrication sites expanding our reach, and every amputee and prosthetist who trusted us with early prototypes, thank you.

This work only happens because of the people we get to do it with. The collaboration, the honest feedback, the shared commitment to better care, it all matters more than we can say.

To everyone celebrating today, we hope you're with the people who make it count. 🧑

Grateful for this journey and everyone on it.
