Today, TIME revealed the Pod has been selected as one of TIME’s 2019 Best Inventions. The annual list features the 100 best inventions that are making the world better, smarter and even a bit more fun.
Launched to incredible success in February of 2019, the Pod is the first bed to combine dynamic temperature regulation, biometric tracking, smart home integrations and sleep coaching to deliver a total solution for enhanced rest and recovery. Its most groundbreaking feature, dynamic temperature, includes artificial intelligence that learns sleep habits and adjusts the temperature in bed automatically. The feature was built using data and knowledge accumulated over the years as an industry leader, including more than 51 million hours of tracked sleep and a body of circadian rhythm research.
At Eight Sleep, we are building products that optimize sleep through technology, data, and insights. As a pioneer of the sleep fitness category, we are educating the world on what it means to be sleep fit, how to achieve it, how to measure it, and the benefits of it. This honor is a testament that technology, when properly used, has the power to unlock positive potential including, better rest for every individual. Five years from now, people will expect much more from their beds and products like the Pod are setting a new standard.
We wouldn’t be here without the trust of our members, which inspires us every day to deliver cutting-edge innovative products that solve sleep’s biggest problems. Thank you for championing us on this journey to bring sleep fitness to the world.
