Editorial summaries
Lingo
Abbott's Lingo is an over-the-counter continuous glucose monitor for non-diabetic and wellness consumers, built on Abbott's FreeStyle Libre sensor platform (FDA 510(k) K233655, decided May 29, 2024; Class II integrated CGM): a disposable biosensor worn up to 14 days on the back of the upper arm. It is the adaptive-algorithmic end of the glucose cell, the documented contrast to Stelo's generative AI: the app's 'Lingo Count' daily glucose-spike metric with adaptive targets, food and activity logging, and rule-based personalized recommendations are adaptive-algorithmic, not generative. 'Lingo Live' is free roughly 30-minute sessions with human Abbott nutritionists, not an AI coach, and DEPLOY surfaces that distinction prominently. Pricing starts at about $54 for a 2-week single-biosensor plan, with recurring biweekly and monthly multi-sensor tiers. From Abbott (NYSE: ABT). Cap-flag: the cleared indication is adults 18+ not on insulin, explicitly NOT for diagnosis of any disease including diabetes.
