Two weeks to embed. Four weeks to launch. That's what it took Ultrahuman to integrate our SDK into their wearable. A wearable can do a lot. But it can't track coughing, irregular breathing patterns, or snoring. Those signals only exist in audio. We have another partner, a smart home company, planing to do something we didn't see coming. They're using our engine on their own microphones to regulate parts of their smart home environment. No phone involved at all. A few months ago we separated the technology from the app. The use cases coming in have been more interesting than I expected. If sleep, breathing, or coughing data is missing in what you're building, my inbox is open. #SleepCycle #SleepSDK #HealthTech #Partnerships

Around 80% of obstructive sleep apnea cases are undiagnosed. Sleep apnea, in plain terms, is suffocating yourself in your sleep. You either stop breathing or you do not take in enough air. It is linked to obesity, Alzheimer’s, daytime fatigue, cardiovascular disease, and a long list of conditions most people would never connect back to a night of poor sleep. The reason it stays undiagnosed is structural. The current path is often a night in a sleep lab, wired up and monitored throughout the night or expensive in home hardware. Eric Malzone shared his own experience going through it on the show, and it tracks with what I hear from most people: expensive, inconvenient, and inaccessible. Most never get tested. This is the gap we’re trying to close. Today, Apple Watch requires multiple sensors and around 30 nights of data to flag elevated sleep apnea risk. We’re working toward contactless risk detection in a single night using only the phone already sitting on the nightstand. Our FDA pathway is underway. If we can shift that 80% undiagnosed rate even modestly, the downstream impact on cardiovascular, cognitive, and metabolic health could be enormous. Curious how clinicians and healthcare leaders in my network are thinking about this. Where does contactless screening fit into your patient pathway? #SleepApnea #PreventiveHealthcare #DigitalHealth #SleepCycle #HealthTech

Remote care should not go dark between visits. Sleep Cycle gives care teams passive, nightly sleep data from the patient’s smartphone.

Sleep sits at the center of the most complex care challenges, yet most platforms still treat it as an afterthought. Sleep Cycle changes that.

80% of sleep apnea cases go undiagnosed. Early identification is where the diagnosis gap can be closed.

Public health is brilliant at hindsight. But could anonymized sleep data finally give us foresight?
