_{Operating room (OR) time costs for ventral hernia repair in the United States typically range from $75-$100 per minute. A substantial part of this operative time is devoted to mesh fixation, which is a critical but time-consuming step in the repair process. Optimizing and streamlining mesh fixation techniques has the potential to reduce overall operative duration, thus markedly reducing costs to hospitals and surgical practices.} 

_{Suture Pro’s goal is to reduce operative time by automating mesh fixation during open, robotic, or laparoscopic ventral hernia repair. Secondarily, it aims to standardize the task with uniform stitch placement, consistent stitch-to-stitch spacing, and a reproducible workflow.}
