About Us

At GlucoWise, we believe diabetes management should feel empowering — not overwhelming.

Founded by Ariana Mendez, who was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes at the age of 14, GlucoWise was born out of a deeply personal mission: to create a smarter, more compassionate way for people to take control of their health.
Tired of disjointed apps and cold, clinical solutions, Ariana envisioned a tool that combined cutting-edge technology with real human understanding. A tool that didn’t just track numbers — but anticipated needs, offered real support, and helped people live confidently.

Today, GlucoWise is an advanced, AI-powered mobile app that simplifies diabetes care through real-time blood glucose tracking, personalized nutrition guidance, medication management, virtual coaching, and community support — all wrapped in a seamless, user-friendly experience.

Our Core Values

  • Empathy First: We understand the daily realities of living with diabetes — because we’ve lived them ourselves.

  • Innovation with Purpose: We harness AI and technology not for the sake of complexity, but to simplify and enhance real lives.

  • Community & Connection: Diabetes isn’t a journey you have to walk alone. GlucoWise connects users to supportive communities and expert guidance.

  • Privacy & Trust: We are fiercely committed to protecting user data with the highest security standards, including HIPAA compliance.

Our Mission

To empower individuals living with diabetes to take charge of their health through intelligent, intuitive, and personalized digital tools.

Our Vision

A world where managing diabetes feels less like a burden — and more like taking back control.

We are compatible with Dexcom

Dexcom is a leading manufacturer of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems for people with diabetes. Unlike traditional fingerstick testing, Dexcom devices provide real-time, continuous tracking of blood glucose levels throughout the day and night — with automatic readings sent to a smartphone or compatible device every few minutes.

We are compatible with Freestyle Libre

FreeStyle Libre is a continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) system developed by Abbott that enables people with diabetes to monitor their blood glucose levels without routine fingersticks. Instead of traditional testing methods, FreeStyle Libre uses a small, wearable sensor placed on the back of the upper arm that measures interstitial glucose levels continuously.
