SAN DIEGO - Dexcom, Inc. (DXCM), a $34.89 billion market cap leader in glucose monitoring technology, announced Monday the release of a new AI-powered photo meal logging feature for its Stelo over-the-counter glucose biosensor, following the feature’s earlier introduction on the company’s Dexcom G7 device. According to InvestingPro data, the company maintains a "GREAT" financial health score, reflecting its strong market position in healthcare technology innovation.
The Smart Food Logging feature allows users to take photos of their meals directly in the Stelo or Dexcom G7 app, where artificial intelligence automatically identifies ingredients and populates meal descriptions. According to the company’s press release, Dexcom G7 is currently the only prescription continuous glucose monitor in the U.S. that supports photo logging. This innovation comes as Dexcom demonstrates solid growth, with revenue increasing by 9.11% in the last twelve months.
"Diet plays a crucial role in managing glucose levels, and our new Smart Food Logging feature removes barriers to food tracking, making it easier to consistently log and understand the impact of meals," said Jake Leach, president and chief operating officer at Dexcom.
The feature joins other recent enhancements to Dexcom’s products, including Weekly Insights in Stelo, which offers personalized recommendations related to diet, exercise, and sleep; integration with Oura to provide a combined view of glucose data and other health metrics; customizable target ranges in Dexcom G7; and a Glucose Impact feature that shows how logged events affect glucose levels.
Stelo, which received FDA clearance as an over-the-counter glucose biosensor, and Dexcom G7 users can access the new Smart Food Logging feature by updating to the latest version of the app on iOS and Android platforms. With strong analyst support and trading near its 52-week high, Dexcom continues to demonstrate market leadership.
