What Pirouette Pharma does
At Pirouette, we have developed a low-profile, disk-shaped, rugged injection device with a patient-centric focus on affordability, portability, and usability. The patented device, based on extensive patient input, is designed to make administering an injection as easy as pushing a button. This allows individuals with limited or no training to easily and intuitively perform an injection on themselves or others.

We make injections as easy as pushing a button
We've developed a disk-shaped, rugged injection device designed specifically for patients who find traditional injections difficult. Our device is low-profile, patient-focused, and meant to be affordable, portable, and usable by anyone, even without training. It simplifies the injection process to just pushing a button, so people can self-administer or assist others easily.
We live in Boston, MA, and the company would remain based here after YC.
Boston has a dense healthcare and biotech ecosystem. Being close to hospitals, research institutions, and manufacturing partners is essential for us to iterate quickly and work closely with patient groups.
