Eight Sleep is an American company that develops products for "sleep fitness".[1][2][3]

History

Eight Sleep was founded in 2014 in San Francisco by Matteo Franceschetti, Massimo Andreasi Bassi, Andrea Ballarini, and Alexandra Zatarain.

The company financed their first projects through a crowdfunding campaign in 2015. Since 2016, the company has raised multiple rounds through venture capital, include a Series B fundraising round in 2018[4] and a Series C fundraising round in 2021 led by Valor Equity Partners with participation from SoftBank and Founders Fund.[5][6]

In 2022, Eight Sleep acquired health coaching company Span Health.

Products

Eight Sleep's flagship product is the Pod mattress.[7] The company has also integrated its offerings with Amazon's Echo devices.[8][9] In 2022, Eight Sleep launched the third generation of the Pod, Pod 3.[10][11]

The Strategist described the company's smart mattresses as the only ones on the market able to reliably provide temperature control.[12] Company's Pad Pro mattress gives you a "sleep score".[13]
