Overview

Butterfly Network makes medical imaging tools, focusing on point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS). Its main product is the Butterfly iQ, a handheld ultrasound device that uses a single probe to scan the whole body. The iQ connects to a software platform, storing images, supporting telehealth, and providing advanced imaging tools. The device is sold to doctors, nurses, and medical technicians in hospitals, clinics, and rural settings, with revenue from device sales, software subscriptions, and educational resources. What sets Butterfly Network apart is its single-probe, portable design that aims to simplify ultrasound workflows and make high-quality imaging more affordable and accessible, especially in underserved areas. The company’s goal is to improve diagnostic access and patient outcomes worldwide by delivering cost-effective, easy-to-use ultrasound technology that integrates hardware and software in one connected system.
