Say hi to Annie Sharma, the creative force behind our marketing 👋

Since joining Vessl in July 2025, Annie has been shaping everything from decks to social posts to the behind the scenes systems that keep us organized. She is someone who genuinely enjoys building, whether it is a story, a campaign, or the structure that helps it all run smoothly.

What makes this role exciting for her is the variety. Being able to jump across different areas and see how each piece contributes to the bigger picture is what keeps things interesting every single day.

When she is not working, Annie is either singing or cooking up something new. Just do not ask her to bake. Also, fun fact, she has an unspoken talent for befriending almost every dog she meets.

We love having her creativity and energy as part of the Vessl team 💛

When the fit works, everything else gets easier.✨

For prosthetic users, consistency in socket fit changes everything. Less time adjusting. Less mental energy is spent managing the socket. More focus on just living.

"It just fits" sounds simple, but getting there isn't. It takes engineering that responds to the body in real time, without asking the patient to manage it manually.

That's the standard we're building toward at Vessl. Fit that works without the constant intervention.

GLP 1s are introducing a new layer of variability in limb volume that doesn’t always follow the patterns prosthetists are used to.

It’s not just about whether volume is changing, but when and why it’s changing.

As Cassandra Delgado, CPO at Coyote Prosthetics & Orthotics, pointed out, timing, medication cycles, and metabolic shifts are starting to play a much bigger role in socket fit than we’ve traditionally accounted for.

The clinicians who pay attention to these signals early will be the ones who stay ahead of the curve and deliver more consistent outcomes for their patients.

For many people wearing a prosthesis, fit isn't something you achieve once and forget about.

It shifts throughout the day. Comfort changes. Adjustments become routine. Volume fluctuates, and the socket doesn't always keep up.

It's a reality that often goes unseen by those who don't experience it.

April is Limb Loss and Limb Difference Awareness Month, a reminder to look closer, listen more, and build solutions that address the challenges people actually face, not just the ones that are most visible.

That's what drives the work we do at Vessl.✨

How do you know when socket fit has gone from "needs adjustment" to "needs attention"?

Most socket problems don't arrive all at once. They start small, an extra sock in the morning, a pressure spot that wasn't there before. But those small signs have a way of quietly becoming bigger problems: skin breakdown, instability, fewer steps, more clinic visits.

We wrote about the early warning signs prosthetists and patients should watch for, what's actually causing fit issues, and when to act before discomfort becomes something worse.

What you'll work on:
➡️ Assembling mechanical components for prosthetic devices
➡️ Managing shipping, logistics, and product fulfillment
➡️ Supporting quality control and inspection processes
➡️ Collaborating with engineers to improve assembly workflows
This role is for someone with 5+ years of hands-on manufacturing or assembly experience who values precision, stays organized, and is comfortable wearing multiple hats in a startup environment.

This position is open to candidates currently residing in Canada and legally authorized to work in Canada.

📍 London, Ontario (on-site)

Patients don't always speak up when their socket isn't fitting right. But the signs are there. 👀

Volume fluctuation is part of prosthetic use, but how patients respond to it often goes unspoken. They adapt, compensate, and minimize discomfort instead of reporting it directly. Over time, those quiet adjustments add up, and they affect mobility, energy, and independence.

The challenge for prosthetists is recognizing the patterns. Not every patient will say, "My socket doesn't fit." Most will just work around it until it becomes a bigger problem.

Worth paying attention to what's happening between appointments, not just what's reported during them.

Socket fit isn't just comfort. It's clinical outcomes. 🦿

A socket that fits properly keeps patients active, prevents complications, and reduces the time they spend in your waiting room. That's why we built Kinn to adjust automatically.

Our co-founder, Sydney Robinson, judged pitches at the True North Biomedical Competition last Saturday. 🎯

True North is Canada's first long-term biomedical engineering competition, where universities compete to create MedTech devices based on real case studies. Ten universities pitched their solutions at Western, and the creativity and problem-solving on display were impressive.

Fun fact: Fadi El-Richani, currently working with us at Vessl, is one of the co-founders of True North. Proud to see him building platforms for the next generation while contributing to what we're building here.
Congratulations to everyone who competed. 🙌

Manual vs. auto-adjusting sockets. What is the real difference?

Some users prefer full control with manual adjustments. Others want a system that adapts automatically throughout the day. Both approaches have strengths and trade-offs.

If you are navigating prosthetic leg socket problems or exploring adjustable socket options, this breakdown will help.

Meet Fadi, our Mechanical Engineering Intern. 🛠️

Fadi joined Vessl in April 2025 as a Mechanical Engineering Intern. He's been working on the prototyping and testing that turns engineering concepts into devices prosthetists can actually use. The hands-on work, the problem-solving, the iteration, that's where he thrives.

What keeps him here? The people and the mission. He'll tell you it's rare to find both at the same time, and he's not wrong. When you're building something that genuinely improves lives, it changes how you show up to work.

We're lucky to have him on the team. 🙌

Mechanical doesn't mean manual. Automatic doesn't mean electronic. 🔧

Our co-founder, Sydney Robinson, joined Brent Wright on The Prosthetics & Orthotics Podcast to talk about the difference between mechanical and electrical systems in prosthetics and how Kinn fits into that conversation.

Kinn is fully mechanical. No sensors, no batteries, no motors. But it adjusts automatically. How? It uses walking motion and shock absorption to dynamically adjust the prosthetic socket's volume. The user's own movement powers the adjustment.

It's a continuous process that happens throughout the day without any input from the patient. Mechanical precision, doing what electronics often try to replicate, but with zero charging, zero calibration, and zero maintenance.
