This startup wants to turn your bed into a health lab.

The company is eightsleep

Founded in 2014 by alexzatarainj and matteofranceschetti, the idea is simple:

We spend one third of our lives sleeping, yet almost no technology is optimizing it.

Their product, the Pod, is a smart mattress cover that can:

• Control bed temperature
• Track sleep biometrics without wearables
• Use AI to optimize sleep during the night

But the bigger vision goes beyond mattresses.

Eight Sleep believes sleep could become a health platform.

Because during sleep the body is:
• still
• undisturbed
• in a stable physiological state

Which makes it the perfect time to collect high-quality health data.

In the future that data could help:

• detect disease early
• optimize hormones
• improve cognition
• support longevity

Investors are betting on the idea.

Eight Sleep just raised an additional $50M and is valued at $1.5B.

Because the real insight is this:

It’s not a mattress company.

It’s a sleep-based health data platform.
