About Medical Device Navigator
The most comprehensive free platform for medical device industry intelligence
Our Mission
Medical Device Navigator was founded to democratize access to medical device regulatory information. We believe that regulatory intelligence should be freely accessible to all — from startups navigating their first CE marking to established manufacturers expanding into new markets.
Our platform tracks 3,500+ medical device companies, thousands of devices, EU Notified Bodies, and hundreds of FDA and MDCG guidance documents across five major regulatory markets: the United States (FDA), European Union (MDR/IVDR), United Kingdom (MHRA), Switzerland (Swissmedic), and Canada (Health Canada).
Updated daily, Medical Device Navigator serves as the central hub for regulatory news, clinical trial updates, and industry intelligence — helping professionals make informed decisions in one of the world’s most regulated industries.
