> Momtech Inc., which sells under the mōmi brand, is a Charlotte, North Carolina consumer-goods startup building infant-feeding products designed to mimic breastfeeding.

## Products & services

- **mōmi babypace bottle** — A slow-flow bottle in glass and BPA-free plastic, offered in 4oz and larger sizes, with patented pacing so babies regulate milk flow with their tongue, mimicking breastfeeding.
- **mōmi baby bottles (redesigned)** — A redesigned bottle line launched with a taller, narrower-base shape to fit stroller and car cup holders and standard bottle warmers, in plastic and glass, small (4oz) and large (up to 10oz).
